Well, instead of symbolically joining a public protest, maybe Scholz could actually act against the rise of the extreme right, you know, like, not letting people alone with inflation and rising cost of living, or not letting our public infrastructure decay after years of neglect. All just because we are afraid of deficit spending and public debt, to the point where the government is unable to do anything anymore
That's just a wrong narrative. They have raised the minimum wage, 50% don't have a union contract yet and SPD is to help people on continuing education (who searching for a job), this is nothing the CDU would do. And they have a overweight in the Bundesrat. SPD, FDP and Greens also want a #klimageld. Comes 2025.
And all that in a situation where we support the Ukraine, war in Israel, and with a big dependancy on russian oil which was from Merkel. We're brainwashed, AfD only lies. CDU is reason for a situation with Bahn, Bundeswehr and infrastructure.
And all that after corona.
No, SPD is better then the normal social media consumer is thinking.
No it won't. They're saying "we can't do it before 2025", that doesn't mean we'll get it then. 2025 is an election year, so they'll use this carrot again in their campaigns. Lindner basically just admitted this.
The FDP is only a stick in the spokes.....
FDP wants Klimageld? I have not heard a more absurd joke this year, they are the ones obstructing it... Literally in the coalition contract but Lindners departement is making sure that the option is available 2025 earliest und just these days he said, that its not clear if the political will to do it before 2027 is there.... Why would the FDP want a Klimageld? Its redistribution in the "wrong" direction
none of this has anything to do with people deciding to be nazis.
also, germany literally spent and will spend multiple billions on all sorts of important things. funding stuff with more debt just leaves you less next year, plus it's gambling on needing less money next year. if you need more next year, you will have to fund paying back debt with more debt or the whole country will default. only banks like this crap
are you retarded? the money a government will get back is only a small fraction. it's peanuts. especially if people nominally profit from it, because the poor and the rich are exempt from many taxes. this is some bullshit you can only come up with, if you're working for a bank and want that sweet government money. you can go to hell, shill
As the only way to create money is for the central bank to grant the government a loan, it goes even further. If the government has no debt, nobody has any currency to pay with. It is a surefire way to destroy the entire economy.
Also Germany has been able to take on loans at interest rates well below inflation, or for some years even at negative interest rates. So it has gotten and still gets money in real terms from taking on government debts. You realize, that when you take out a loan for 1 Billion but you only have to pay back 900 Million, you made 100 Million?
If I spend 100€ now to avoid 10000€ in damages later, spending more money NOW will actually leave me with LESS debt in the long run. And we just so happen to be in the midst of a global catastrophe where every Euro not spent as early as possible to prevent it will make it infinitely more expensive for us in the long run.
I didn't say that people "just decided" to be nazis and I still wouldn't say that. A major factor is economic inequality (but surely not the only one).
The narrative of having to pay back more and more so the budget gets cut more and more is misleading. Debt doesn't work the same way for governments as for a private entity. Paying back interests is easy if the economy is thriving. You can just pay back the old loans with new ones, this is absolutely no problem and governments have been doing this for ages. Absolute debt numbers in € don't mean anything, and debt relative to GDP or federal budget also doesn't say whether the debt can be paid back. We are afraid of possibly/maybe/probably not/whoknows may be in the future and cut spending everywhere. And then we are surprised that people vote for alternative parties
