Oliver Gorus wrote that Friedrich Merz had pledged before the election to adhere to the debt brake and to refrain from tax increases. After the election, he imposed record debts on the citizens, raised taxes, and continuously introduced new levies, according to Gorus. Gorus also accused Merz of going against his promise to put an end to leftist politics, claiming he has been pursuing socialist redistribution policies and expanding the state since taking office. Gorus stated that Merz would go down in history as the most brazen liar in a German government position since the founding of the Federal Republic. #Steuern #Politik #Merkel (translated)

The user sparbookfoes wrote that the federal government, consisting of the Union and SPD, is planning another tax increase despite their agreement in the coalition contract against tax hikes: the tobacco tax is set to rise. A pack of Marlboro cigarettes with 20 cigarettes currently costs 9.40 euros; according to him, the price will be around 10.50 euros in 2027 and about 12.10 euros in 2030. The specific additional state revenues are difficult to predict. The German Customs and Finance Union (BDZ) predicts that more and more smokers will turn to the black market, he wrote. #Steuern #Tabaksteuer #Rauchen (translated)

The savers' enemies wrote that the CDU interprets the statements "The left is over" and "no tax increases" among other things as a new cryptocurrency tax, sugar tax, and packaging tax.

Furthermore, the tax deductibility of tradesmen's bills has been reduced from 20 to 15 percent. #CDU #Steuern #Politik (translated)

Michael accused the black-red coalition of having broken their promises against tax increases and new civil servant positions.

Das wohl größte Problem bei der Geschichte ist doch die, dass Amthor der Meinung war, es sei eine gute Idee sich so ablichten zu lassen. Dass das in der Bevölkerung sauer aufstoßen könnte (in Zeiten, in denen seine Partei über zick Steuererhöhungen diskutiert) auf die Idee kommt er nicht. Und das zeigt doch wie weit entfernt diese Art von Politiker von den Menschen, von uns Bürgern tatsächlich sind. Und das ist dramatisch, tragisch und traurig. #amthor #Politik #Bürgernähe #Steuererhöhungen
