BERLIN - If German politicians lack ideas for reforming the country's struggling healthcare and pensions systems, they can now blame an adverse flow of energy in their workplace.
The German parliament's glass dome, a Berlin landmark, makes for bad feng shui, according to an expert in the Chinese art of positioning objects, buildings and furniture.
"The energy is downright sucked out of MPs' heads by the glass dome," feng shui adviser Wilhelm Wuschko told the mass-circulation daily Bild on Saturday.
To keep the energy inside, the dome should be coated with a protective foil, he said.
Bild said the office of parliament president Wolfgang Thierse would not comment on the suggestion.

Or they could all wear tin-foil pyramid hats during all parlimentary debate.

If that's all it takes then each of us could donate one box of foil.

This article was posted last week. Dividing feng shwei by multiple postings encourages dissipation of foral focus.

LOL. But IMHO the Reichstag looks a little ridiculous with that dome...

Like those solar hot dog cookers. It could finish cooking the half-baked ideas of the current German Parliment.

Energy isn't the only thing that got sucked out of their heads.

Sounds like an unsupportable pyramid scheme to me. Is AMWAY involved?

"....bad feng shui, according to an expert in the Chinese art of positioning objects, buildings and furniture."
I'm amused by the topic. Many asian real estate shoppers are influenced by it.
But it is a huge opportunity for remodelers and interior decorators.
For Germany, move the front door, re-arrange the furniture; besser.

just wonder when the socialists in Sacramento will catch on this and blame feng shui for their failed public policy in California???

Last I heard it wasn't 'feng shui', it was "bad sushi"
