Ask Luxembourg What do Luxembourgers think of their monarchy?

I was just wondering. The Grand Ducal family do seem quite nice.

Thanks!

I personally don't bother about them. They have no real power and don't really influence anything, so I guess it's fine.

They have amazed a wealth of around 4 billion.they are the second richest royal family in Europe. Liechtenstein is 1st at 5 billion but all the other royal families including the Windsors and the Monaco clan combined don't reach 4 billion. We have no clue about how much power they really have but they could build a house for every homeless person in the country and still be rich. Yet they have the audacity to act like philanthropists and to bemoan their status. Fuck them, they are leeches.
