06:06.130 --> 06:09.470 Extraherz was on the road for you in Karlsruhe and collected opinions 06:09.470 --> 06:10.230 on this topic. 06:11.810 --> 06:13.150 It's a two-edged sword. 06:13.270 --> 06:14.370 You can argue about it for a long time. 06:14.990 --> 06:16.550 Without Moos nothing is going on. 06:17.130 --> 06:18.070 That's one topic. 06:18.490 --> 06:22.030 And the other is of course 500 euros for someone who doesn't have rich 06:22.030 --> 06:23.110 parents and a lot of money. 06:23.730 --> 06:26.330 If you would use the money, for example for better student conditions, 06:26.470 --> 06:27.490 then yes, except not. 06:28.090 --> 06:30.990 I think it's a shame that many people who don't have the economic 06:30.990 --> 06:34.050 opportunities from home, from their parents, may not be able to study 06:34.050 --> 06:36.610 anymore and this two-way society is to be rejected, absolutely. 06:37.090 --> 06:40.570 I don't think it's so good because I mean they don't have that much 06:40.570 --> 06:40.910 money. 06:41.810 --> 06:45.270 To be honest, I think it should be free at least in the first year of 06:45.270 --> 06:45.270 study. 06:45.910 --> 06:48.490 So at least not 500 euros and not for everyone. 06:48.990 --> 06:53.590 Maybe for the people whose parents are doctors and teachers or 06:53.590 --> 06:56.590 something like that, but my parents don't have that much money either. 06:57.070 --> 07:01.890 I had daughters who studied and are very happy that they are done now. 07:03.270 --> 07:05.650 I don't know anything about it. 07:08.170 --> 07:10.710 It's more expensive than we need so much money. 07:12.190 --> 07:15.970 You have to look at it this way, later you earn a lot more. 07:16.130 --> 07:19.610 So I can understand it and I will pay it without joining the boycott. 07:20.950 --> 07:22.890 I think it's great, definitely. 07:24.710 --> 07:25.790 In the past, it cost a lot. 07:27.590 --> 07:33.310 I think it is used at the universities, that all the equipment is 07:33.310 --> 07:34.990 improved, especially in the natural sciences. 07:36.310 --> 07:37.910 That better things are invested. 07:38.450 --> 07:40.630 And in the end it benefits the students too. 07:41.010 --> 07:42.410 For long-term students, yes. 07:42.910 --> 07:45.810 Because we also go to work, we also have to earn our money and I think 07:45.810 --> 07:46.790 they should contribute something. 07:47.650 --> 07:49.290 So I have to pay tuition fees. 07:49.810 --> 07:50.790 How much is that? 07:52.010 --> 07:52.950 Per semester? 07:53.710 --> 07:54.250 Now seriously? 07:54.790 --> 07:55.750 Fuck the wall. 07:58.410 --> 07:59.530 Good question. 08:00.150 --> 08:03.730 We now have a little relaxation for you, just for grandma. 08:03.730 --> 08:08.190 Lean back and enjoy a piece of winter at these far too warm 08:08.190 --> 08:08.870 temperatures. 08:21.380 --> 08:24.160 Luise von Plönnies, on the railway. 08:25.580 --> 08:29.140 Flash of lightning that carries me, quickly moves me from the glow, 08:30.100 --> 08:33.360 whizzing through the splendor of the day, whizzing through the dark 08:33.360 --> 08:37.960 night, thundering over the foam of the stream, flashing at the slopes 08:37.960 --> 08:41.420 of the abyss, through the mountains, mighty cliffs, through the 08:41.420 --> 08:46.520 valleys, night cliffs, through the seeds, golden arches, over proud 08:46.520 --> 08:51.120 bridge arches, through the villages, lively life, through the cities, 08:51.300 --> 08:52.200 colorful paths. 08:52.200 --> 08:58.600 Could, like you, the free word, rustle from place to place, all hearts 08:58.600 --> 09:03.700 that beat in it, stormily carry from you, so from one country to 09:03.700 --> 09:06.120 another, the thoughts wander. 09:06.700 --> 09:10.820 Free word, who founded rails, to serve your train strongly. 09:16.790 --> 09:19.470 So, that's it again for this week. 09:20.050 --> 09:23.290 All contributions as well as further information about the program and 09:23.290 --> 09:27.630 all our topics, can be found, as always, at www.extraherz.de. 09:27.950 --> 09:32.610 I wish you a wonderful week, say goodbye and hopefully see you next time.
