German Hypocrites!

From BBC News:
"Germany chided for limit on Poles"

I had to include this article because I think it is beyond stupid. Doesn't anyone in the German Government think it is hypocritical for Germany to discriminate against ex-communist countries that are now part of the EU? Maybe Angela Merkel? It has only been a little more than 20 years since East Germany (an ex-communist country) reunited with West Germany. In fact Angela Merkel herself lived in Communist East Germany. So by German "logic" the former West Germans should discriminate against former East Germans if they want to continue to discriminate against Poland and other former Communist countries now in the EU. The EU is supposed to do away with barriers, but it seems that the continued discrimination of other EU countries (like Romania, Bulgaria, etc) is ok - hypocrites!

Sometimes, people and governments need to stop and think before they come up with stupid rules.
