My new job in Brussels will have a lot to do with energy. But I am also in questions of industry at home. That remembers me at the song "Industry and energy". No, no, its only a joke or "späßle" how we say in Baden-Württemberg. My homeland is famous for his industry. This has a long tradition. We have a talk word in my homeland: "Work, work, and build a small house". Maybe you do not understand this, it is heavy to translate it right.
The people in Baden-Württemberg believe that good work will bring good money. And they believe in god. When all man and woman in Europe would believe what the Schwaben believe that would be the half rent on the way to a better world.
The combination of hard work and religion is also the ground because my party, the christ and democratic union, is so strong in my homeland.
You can depend you on our working people. Many companies with a good call in the world have a seat in my homeland. You take only IBM which built here write machines long before they start with calculators or computers how they are called in the today world. Or you think at Mercedes, the car with the star. Janis Joplin sang about her friends who all drive porsches but she wants a mercedes benz - from god. And you know what? Mercedes and Porsche are neighbours in Stuttgart.
We are good in building vehicles. But we do not have a ship industry. So we are all sitting in one boat.
Thank you very much my Woman and Man
