Bertolt Brecht - Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny

The widow Begbick , Trinity Moses Willy and the manager to stay with her car, fleeing from the police, found stuck in a Strandödnis and also because of the too large distance to the gold mining areas in fact, a city full of gin and whiskey. There it will impress even four gold prospector from Alaska: Heinrich Merg, Joseph choir screen, Jacob Schmidt and Paul (Paul) Ackermann. But the profit is declining in the city, the competition makes everything better. Until a hurricane comes and threatened with destruction. From then on, at Paul's initiative, all measures will be lifted, all the destructiveness of man can be given free rein. And profits increase. So Jacob eats dead Joseph died in a price boxes; Paule loses all his money. Drinks but still with no money and thus committing the greatest crime in this city: to have no money. So he comes to the electric chair and is killed.
is Free to a murderer who pays enough money to free himself. Two days in prison got Paule that he has sent Joseph to death. With decreasing harmful for others, with greater alienation from the money, the penalty increases due to the death of Zechprellerei.

Wonderful fit into the story - lucky at times, it is found by the destruction of himself, by fleeing into the air, through the suffering of years of deprivation to take away stand unrestrained on "ethics and morality" can and lacked the pleasure to catch up, even into their own case. This is accompanied by the loss of solidarity, to each other - regardless of whether it is the beloved, or old friends with whom they worked - if it comes to money, in a sense, the remainder of the pleasure, then comes to life and the tax belongs to any help. Nevertheless, or perhaps because of, the city gets lost in demonstrations (or more funerals?). For private property, for the honor of the murderer, for the survival of the Golden Age ...

Did I actually passing the Opera on any youtube video views, I probably still prefer to see live once. Wherein the Threepenny Opera but has a higher priority.
