State Expenditures Reconsidered

What has already overtaken businesses and private households in the course of the lockdown crisis is now also affecting the public account: It is sliding into financial distress. Naturally must all efforts of the public sector be undertaken to stabilize the economy and the social state so that those bearing the pain of the lockdown crisis do not pay the bill a second time. The lockdown crisis ought to be a reminder to us to ask which of Germany’s public expenditures to prioritize. If we want to make the economy and the social state strong and crisis-proof, we must re-set the priorities.  We cannot and do not want to afford ideologically based expenditures for the asylum industry, the Brussels bureaucracy and a climate policy hostile to nature and economy. Let us therefore end this money redistribution and make possible tax relief for the middle class and the Mittelstand.
