You can fool some of the people, some of the time. But Germany’s wind and sun cult are struggling to fool all of the people, for all time.

Slowly but surely, the average German is working out that they have been played for fools. As Charles MacKay observed: “Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, one by one.” And so it goes in Germany.
