He reads out a legislative order to be turned into national law by the EU member states.
The first says: Equal pay.
In my opinion would a healthy society not need a law that in detail explains what Equal Pay means.
As a matter of fact did explaining that to especially Bismarck and his Kaiser need several hundred dead Imperial Guards Men, until they created laws.
That was our mistake. We never should have allowed them to put a basic principle of fairness into a law, because they would, and did, then just create ever more laws, follow only laws and eventually ignore the very idea...
How hard can it be to enforce fairness? Well, The Red Army took down 75% of German soldiers having penetrated their home soil to conquer. Two Generations later they had bullied the Stalinists out. The fucking Commis won, twice.
The German system has a particular bad flaw and that is that other judge decisions on even comparable cases have no binding power, while the U.S. and British School of Law shines most when other cases are abstracted onto a situation that requires a Jury or Judge, which happens every time the Germans would say they miss a law so it was legal... which assembles a fucking notorious pattern, innit?
