    Since I installed a keylogger on Scholz’ PC, I can provide some insight on how this decision was made …

    Just today I read that ECB could increase the interest rate again, because the inflation rate is too high in Germany. From my limited understanding of economy, cutting taxes can only raise the inflation?

      Our neoliberal party likes to blow money into big business ass. Everything else doesn’t matter to them.

      No, no, it only leads to inflation when taxes are cut for the working class, you see.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    While Germany’s coalition parties have hesitated over the extent of the country’s tax cuts, the economy has remained static.

    The conflict has seen German energy prices surge, after Berlin’s reliance on Moscow for gas was brought to a halt.

    “We’ll discuss how to achieve a big boost,” Chancellor Olaf Scholz said at the start of a two-day cabinet retreat at Schloss Meseberg, a baroque castle outside Berlin.

    The tax cuts are part of a 10-point program and intended to kickstart economic growth whilst making sure companies made the decision to invest in Germany, Scholz said.

    The plan includes a premium for energy-saving investments, as well as rule changes to make it easier for companies to write off losses.

    As Germany boosts spending, some critics fear that without a new European Union green fund, only larger economies with more fiscal power will be able to push ahead with national subsidies, leaving smaller countries behind.

      German language is just older, not necessarily dumber.

      I personally see it as more intelligent language, as it’s got rules that it follows, instead of the always sometimes but never not rules of English.
