Increasing expenses for children in citizens' money: numbers from Berlin 2023
Increasing expenses for children in citizens' money: numbers from Berlin 2023
Berlin, in the context of financial policy and social justice, a worrying trend for expenses for children and adolescents as part of the citizen benefit. Calculations by the Federal Ministry of Social Affairs show that Germany invested around 5.6 billion euros in these services last year. This number became known by a request from the AfD member of the Bundestag, René Springer.
Development of children in the citizens' allowance
The expenses for minors entitled to work have changed drastically in a look at the past few years. In 2010, payments still amounted to 3.3 billion euros. This falls along with an increase in the number of children with beneficiaries who were around 1.8 million last year. At the population level, the total number of 80.3 million inhabitants rose to almost 84.7 million. A significant part of this increase are children and adolescents under the age of 18.
economic aspects and adjustments
The annual adaptation of the citizens' allowance to wage and price development has meant that 12.6 percent of all children in Germany are now dependent on this social assistance. A stable percentage that has remained constant in recent years.
changes in the relationship between German and foreign minors
A remarkable aspect is the change in the relationship between German and foreign children in the citizen benefit. If there was still a clear overhang of German minors in 2010, this relationship has shifted until the end of 2023 in favor of foreign minors. Of the originally 1.37 million German beneficiaries, only 907,000 are left, while the number of foreign minors rose to 894,000
The origin of the foreign minors shows that the largest group comes from Ukraine, followed by Syrian and EU bourgeois proportions. The discussion about these developments is often accompanied by political demands, as the "migration turn" demanded by Springer.
total editions under the magnifying glass
The total volume for civil allowance recipients rose to 42.6 billion euros last year. Critics say that the financial burden of such social benefits could mean a 'creeping explosion'. Springer therefore demands that the incentives to migrate to the German social systems and, if necessary, reform in order to be able to counter this challenge.
The current expenditure on citizenship money underlines the urgency, the effects of social policy and its long -term consequences for society. In view of the increase in expenses, a rethink is required to find the balance between social support and the demands of the national budget.
