The Sunday driver: innovation through prohibitions!
"Every ban is also a driver of innovation," says Annalena Baerbock.The idea is extremely expandable as the example of prohibition in North America shows.
"Every ban is also a driver of innovation," said Annalena Baerbock recently, although I do not know whether this visionary thought came to her, whether he was only borrowed or even stolen.That is why this little mental Sunday excursion should not be done, but only about the question of whether Annalena's dictum, also 1.Main clip of thermopedia called, applies or not.In the end, the principle is roughly like this: the more prohibition signs a society, the more innovative it is.This is not necessarily wrong, but only if you generously lay the logic behind it.In the following form, I would agree to Annalena's dictum: "The more prohibition signs a company sets up, the more innovative it is when inventing diversions".The hierarchy of the prohibitions ranges from not permitted entering the lawn to the ban on thinking, whereby the latter is, as it were, formula 1 of the bans, which - freely after the great philosopher Niki Lauda - only drive in a row as at the Grand Prix of Pyongyang.
In the past, people said: Need makes it inventive.In the meantime, this motto has also been further developed.Now it says: Emergency is inventive.New innovative reasons for a Corona emergency or climate emergency are invented every day, which is not available.The non-existent emergency is combated with innovative fundamental rights restrictions and harassment until the paralyzed country actually slips into the emergency.See above, drive in circles.The Perpetuum Mobile becomes an innovative rule of rule.
So far, the scope of German tax literature has been with more than 100.000 paragraphs as a world record, but the coronal literature sucks up in the slipstream and will soon start to overtake, closely followed by the climate script.Production of ever new regulations and prohibitions is now considered the proof of performance of the administrative class.
The number of stupid ones in Germany should not be greater than elsewhere.The number of hardworking probably not either.However, the fact that apparently a large number of hard -working people massages into government offices, authorities and administrations, where they are diligently doing stupid things, seems problematic.Therefore I would like to make the following innovative proposal: Since the stupidity cannot be eliminated, at least the hard work should be disposed of, that does not hurt and promotes progress immensely.
The innovation driver alcohol ban
We now come from the theoretical considerations for practical consideration.For the historical review of Annalena's dictum, for example, the ban on alcohol is ideal, also called "prohibition" in the USA.In January 1920 - fittingly 100 years ago - the 18 occurred.Additional items for the constitution in force.He punished the manufacture, distribution and consumption of alcohol.
The innovation driver alcohol ban entfaltete sofort seine segensreiche Wirkung.He made the state poor and the mafia rich.The ban on alcohol acted like an economic stimulus package for organized crime, similar to the end of nuclear power for the wind barons.Young start-up entrepreneurs like Al Capone or Meyer Lansky immediately recognized their chance and made a fortune with the illegal production and distribution of alcohol.
The automotive industry also switched up an innovative walk.Al Capones armored 16-cylinder Cadillac, for example, distinguished numerous innovations, such as a foldable rear window, so that you could enforce compliance with the minimum distance with the customary and also innovative Thompson machine gun ("Tommy Guns").On the other hand, Revolver immitations were popular with the common drunkard, which served as a bottle of schnapps.In the course of the innovations, state income fell dryly like a quarterly sacer in the sobering cell.
I am a bit undecided whether I should approved this development or not, it depends on which gang you prefer to be excluded from.From the point of view of the lover of extravagant automobile, however, it must be stated that in the roots of the prohibition numerous engineering brands such as Cadillac, Lincoln or Packard bloomed like the swamp family in the green garden pond.American debate culture also received an enormous thrust with the popularization of machine guns and shortened the decision -making processes.
81 percent more cases of drunkenness at the wheel
Further interesting progress from the ban were:
81 percent more cases of drunkenness at the wheel, vermutlich weil es keine Kneipe mehr um die Ecke gab und auch die Beschaffung von Spirituosen längere Wege erforderte.
13 percent more serious crimes, in Chicago alone the number of murders rose from around 200 a year to 600.
The end of the biosprit, because the prohibition destroyed the many grain brands that farmers used to produce their inexpensive ethanol fuel.
This led to increased expenses on the farmers and the switch to oil -based fuels such as gasoline or diesel
About 10.000 deaths from impure or poisoned alcohol
Prohibition was a political success of the so -called "abstent movement" or abstinence movement.The abstinence movement became politically and practically active using so -called abstinence associations that occurred for a drug -free life.100 years later, the abstinence clubs are called the Greens, Extinction Rebellion or Fridays for Future, otherwise everything remains the same.Humanity must be freed from drugs such as the car, meat consumption or oil central heating.
I deepened the topic at Wikipedia and suddenly drive through the landscape with completely different eyes.Before the test center, the 19 shimmers under the wok.Century and pressed the light of light as a greeting.When it comes to prohibition culture, the attentive contemporaries are awaiting analogies like the bananas on the lumbar apron of Josephine Baker.The abstinence movement always sees a social reform measure in total waiver.At that time alcohol consumption was a sign of lack of virtuousness and the schnapps was considered the cause of the misery of the lower classes.
"I didn't even know how to drink legally"
In the convoy you drove with the so -called moral movement, which should lead mankind morally to the heights of Mount Everest, without considering that you can hardly spend the night up there.This included a high consciousness of the shipment towards the Sherpas, then the workers' and peasantry.The so -called social hygiene was also in tow, which is currently rising from the fog in a dream of the compulsory vaccination.The climate that offers the social hygienic advantage of not contradicting and also not secretly dreaming of a Mercedes A-Class has taken place in the place of the workers' class..The climate neutrality is the eight -thousanders of morality and morality, first ascent by German pioneers, but it can be damn cold up there, I warned you.
The Bielefeld historian Thomas Welskopp told the development of the United States in the 1920s.His book "America's great disillusionment" describes how a well -intentioned idea of prohibitions drove the cart in the ditch innovatively.If the historical analogy is resilient, then the disillusionment in this country will come in 2033.Annalena Baerbock is then 55 years old, Luisa Neubauer 37 and Greta Thunberg 30, an age in which you can still enjoy the hangover.
To the troste: until then life is guaranteed to continue.The end of the world will have passed as at the beginning of the 20.Century of the Hallysche Comet.When it appeared in May 1910, the world got out of joint even without an impact.The media fueled mass panic, science confusion.Postcards testify to the fantasies of that time - between falling fear and debauchery.
I advocate the latter very much.The day when the prohibition ended in the US.December 1933, some contemporaries had unusual withdrawal symptoms. "I didn't even know how to drink legally", sinnierte der Komponist Alec Wilder, „und eigentlich hatte ich mich an den Gedanken gewöhnt, anrüchig zu sein."
