Originally posted by Kellyboop I wanted to puke when a German guy at my work expressed his disgust with the falling of the wall because East Germany then received "all of the benefits while West Germany paid for it". Such a great day for freedom lovers everywhere! The footage on TV of the celebrations were neat

I do remember when the wall came down, there was jubilation, and LOTS of it.... until all the East Germans came over and took over a lot of West Germans' jobs for a lot less pay. It took SEVERAL years for that economy to stabilize, so your co-worker wasn't the only one.
