Sundays Christmas Shopping

Only in extraordinary cases, the Court held, will be allowed to establish exceptions for more than ten Sundays a year will be short retention stores open (and a maximum of two Sundays in a row and not, as required by law for all four Sundays of Advent), nor will it be legal to set the lunch break (up from 13.00 to 20.00, clarified from Karlsruhe). The mayor of Berlin Klaus Wowereit, saying sorry for the content of the sentence, has been caught the ball, which is a good social democrat, to lament the fact that covertly Christmas shopping was a very good measure for the economic fortunes of the economy German.


On closer the core is not at all. The point is, once again, the property. Prevent a seller or a worker to use their energy when it is most convenient means to limit heavy as a boulder on his freedom of action undertaken. The problem arises naturally from the general contempt in which the property is taken into account and that it then follows, namely trade. Especially as gas station attendants, nurses, pilots, stewardesses, television talking heads, doctors, actors work all right on Sunday. The label hypocritical disregard for legislative recitation of these categories: basic services.

The sentence is short, a weak attempt at revenge on the “evil spirit” of an imaginary contemporary society, guilty of transforming the human into a puppet … But if the economic sociology had borrowed at least some basis of truth, then how to reconcile a ban on shop opening with the work of hundreds of thousands of professionals, that the seventh day (unfortunately or fortunately) must trot? A subsequent reading of the ruling would require the imposition of a ban on clear for them, if not even-handedly.
