Habeck accuses the Union of “voodoo economics” – and exposes the CDU with a simple calculation. The federal government is only expecting mini-growth of 0.2 percent this year.
Habeck cited the shortage of skilled workers as the biggest structural problem. The government's growth package has been stuck in the Federal Council for months. Even after a meeting of the mediation committee, it is unclear whether the Union will agree to the growth package in the Bundesrat on March 22.
