Budget debate in the Bundestag in the character of the financial crisis: The opposition finds the rescue package the government merely gekleckst, the finance minister warns against tax cuts and Klotz - who should ultimately pay back the debt?Fricke can talk and he keeps Steinbrück the 0.2 percent growth, the budget for the upcoming year. Because he would not actually say that he could not promise that forecast?
Steinbrueck considers he has in the past often located alongside with his predictions. Quotes of the last few months he has repeatedly accused the opposition, even at this Tuesday. Steinbrueck has therefore become cautious. To him "available information" went from a growth rate of minus one percent to 0.2 percent from. It orients itself at the optimistic end of the corridor, "he consider it" legitimate ", as this budget had been drawn up.Fricke is, turns to its by-man and shakes his head. His party colleague, Ulrike flat will talk a little later, the era Steinbrueck will once as a "time of displacement and as a Hinterheragieren" in the history books.
Later characterized Steinbrück files, he can not comment whether the criticism he has taken. It is a budget in a special time, because on Tuesday will be debated in the Bundestag - on Wednesday, the Chancellor to speak. Four days in total are used for the debate, the opposition moniert right at the beginning, it was the speaking time had been reduced because of the economic package, the inheritance tax and the annual three other projects will be handled.
The template for the 2009 budget provides for expenditure of 290 billion euros, or 2.4 percent more than this year. But the real problem is the economic slump - the new debt will be launched next year at 18.5 billion euros, eight billion euros more than the original government draft. This is also the goal Stone Bridge lost in 2011 no longer include new debt. The zero in three years we will not reach you, unless by a "wunderhafte development," says Steinbrueck.
The speaker of the Grand Coalition - whether Union Group Vice Chief Michael Champion, the SPD housekeepers Carsten Schneider or the Finance Minister himself - but profess the goal of a balanced budget. "Asap" we wanted to achieve, promises SPD parliamentary group deputy Joachim Posse.
"Yes, the world economy is in a descent"
Previously, the federal finance minister once again chipped those sharp words, which he recently distributed at every opportunity. "Yes, the world economy is in a downturn. Yes, the Federal Republic of Germany is in recession" - these are two central messages. Nobody can say today how sharp recession will fail. "We come in very heavy weather," Steinbrueck orakelt. He was also for the people to say: Politics is not all "Fährnisse", any "wrong" can be held.

Vehemently denied the minister alleged plans to use vouchers to spend upswing. It had the "Handelsblatt" reported. "There are no such plans in my house and I suspect elsewhere do not well," he said. Steinbrueck, is to feel, is annoyed by the excitement of the media, the opposition. One should not be in a "rat race" to bad news hineinbegeben where you übertreffe himself, he says. He sharply with the demand of the Left Group after an economic program in the amount of 50 billion euros into court. That is, he quotes approvingly an observation of the SPD Posse housekeepers, "Gross registered tons ideology." Left Group chief Gregor Gysi had in the morning on short-term programs in China and Britain and the announcement of the next U.S. president Barack Obama for a 700-billion package out. And he had Steinbrueck and Merkel called: "You must stop Klecker, they must finally begin to Klotz." Otherwise, the Bundesbank quoted Gysi, but soon the Federal Republic into the worst economic crisis since 1949. But Steinbrueck thinks nothing of such historical comparisons, he asks Gysi also what actually Klotz instead Klecker hot - whether it is the young spectators' gallery on the subsequent debt would be paid? The grand coalition defended their work against the Anwürfe. "Under dramatically worsened external conditions" the coalition had "done the best," said Schneider. The higher deficit was necessary because you are not in an economic crisis even as it saves state and reinforce it so wished. The Green Group chief Fritz Kuhn, however, accuses the coalition before, no clear direction, and in crisis "extremely poorly coordinated" to be. "Now with the cornucopia through the land" Much has in recent days by new economic programs the speech. But on the other hand, are turning to the speaker of the Grand Coalition in unison. Instead, they praise the current package of measures the government that more investment should be targeted. Unions budget expert Steffen Kampeter explained initially be the impact of economic relief measures and wait. The activism in other countries had for the German situation is not adequate. SPD also housekeepers Schneider warns, "now with the cornucopia through the country to attract" more and more short-term and industries to grant state aid. At some flash points in the debate and the recent dissonance from the south - the demand for rapid tax cuts, as the CSU has collected. Without mentioning by name Bavaria, advocates Steinbrueck opposed to it. He meticulously lists obligations to Germany in the future and give money - including in education, for development within the framework of the G8, the deductibility of health insurance contributions. "And then we talk of further tax cuts?", He asked the House. SPD parliamentary group deputy chief Posse brings to witness this day against the Union position in the CSU - the Baden-Wurttemberg Prime Minister Guenther Oettinger, the host of next week Federal CDU party in Stuttgart. Only the day before, the CDU politician said, before you could cut taxes, the budget must first be compensated. Oettinger did with his "fiscal ABC" is to "own the series' thought. How quickly the "creed" of a tax cut to pump up will see you "just in Bavaria." And then adds Posse added that he ask here, "establish clarity." The CDU Chairwoman Angela Merkel said he does not - but it was meant. |
