Budget crisis: traffic light coalition against new financial challenges

Berlin in crisis mode! The current tax estimate strikes like a flash and reveals the true extent of the financial emergency: The traffic light coalition of the Greens, the FDP and SPD presents itself as a politician who tumbles on the abyss with their agenda. Christian Haase, the budget spokesman for the CDU/CSU parliamentary group, clearly takes stock and does not leave good hair on the self-proclaimed progress coalition.

"Three years of traffic light with two years of recession - that leaves traces," said Haase. In his sharp words it becomes clear that the political decisions of the past years are like a pile of broken glass that threatens to crush the coalition. The signs are on storm, and the worries of the citizens grow!

tax reductions and debt policy

What Haase appeals, the terrifying numbers are: for the period from 2025 to 2028, the estimated tax reductions amount to around 97 billion euros! In addition, there are the exorbitant new debts of over 50 billion euros a year for the coming years. The traffic light government is trapped in crisis mode and drives to risk with full steam!

Particularly alarming: The current tax estimate does not take into account the financial consequences of ongoing legislative advice. From the planned tax continuing development law, for example, which is intended to reduce the cold progression, the state threatens revenue losses of around 75 billion euros. And the "Law on the tax exemption of the subsistence minimum" and the "Law on Bureaucracy Demonitation in Electricity and Energy Tax Law" add the other 20 billion euros. In the end, the federal government remains a hearty invoice of a good 45 billion euros that no one can ignore!

"We cannot afford a third year of recession!" Haase, and calls for a dramatic change in economic policy. But where is the power of the traffic light to create this trend reversal? Your bloodless action is the reason why the financial policy faults and imbalances continue to worsen. It is time for the government to have the black numbers in view and finally make the right course! The citizens demand results, no empty chatter!
