The Federal Minister of Economics complains about “drastically bad” economic data.

And he wants to put a bear on the Germans, which is why.

A comment by Georg Anastasiadis.

Federal Minister of Economics Robert Habeck warns of “dramatically bad” economic data for Germany - and he has already identified the perpetrators who have stolen our growth: It is, allegedly, the Karlsruhe constitutional judges who have banned the traffic light government from its debt tricks.

Habeck shouts loudly, stop the thief, to distract from his own misdeeds.

Because the green voodoo economic policy could not work: Anyone who imposes the most expensive energy on our companies in addition to the most oppressive bureaucratic burdens and the highest taxes will not reap a “green” miracle, but at most a blue miracle.

Now there is a lot of complaining that Germany is once again wearing the red growth lantern in Europe this year.

The traffic light considers at best a mini-plus of 0.2 percent to be feasible.

This is really dramatic, and it was such that Bundesbank President Joachim Nagel was now at a loss when he was asked to explain on the sidelines of the Siko in Munich where the nation's prosperity should come from in the future.

He has had enough of German growth skepticism and finally wants to see growth rates of three percent again.

There is no need to puzzle for long about the addressee of the outburst of anger: they are the ideologues who long ago proclaimed the end of growth to save the climate.

At least Habeck & Co. have now achieved this goal.

But because all the re-education measures among the citizens have not been effective, the state treasury is empty and the anger against the Greens is great, Habeck now wants to try debt-financed corporate subsidies to stimulate the economy instead of considering the much cheaper method of closing down companies through less bureaucracy relieve.

And at the traffic lights the Liberals are once again the bad guys because they stopped the green pet project of the Supply Chain Act at the last moment, which would have taken the documentation and proof requirements for business owners to the extreme.
