Last year I spoke to some believers from a former ‘eastern block’ country. They talked about how life had changed for them during the transition from communism to ‘free market’ economy.
One thing that they had said was how, under the previous regime, people like themselves had enough money, but that there were insufficient commodities to buy with it. And they said that, now, there is plenty to buy, but they just don’t have enough money to buy with.
So this article in the news especially intrigued me yesterday.
About the theft of the “ARBEIT MACHT FREI” sign from Auschwitz by our Polish neighbours.
And about how it had been cut into three pieces.
It made me wonder if they were planning on rearranging the sentence.
And if so, what they might want to say.
