Strengste Kontrollen am Flughafen – jeder Lippenstift, jede Wasserflasche, jedes Gepäckstück wird durchleuchtet und abgetastet. Gleichzeitig landen Boote unkontrolliert an Stränden, werden Zäune überklettert und Grenzen durchbrochen. Wer hier doppelte Standards erkennt, ist ein Schwurbler. #Sicherheit #Grenzkontrollen #DoppelteStandards

Deutschland hat nach wie vor unfassbares Potenzial. So gelingt schnell der Turnaround: 1.) Energieangebot massiv ausweiten > Kernkraftwerke reaktivieren > In Niedersachsen fracken > Neue Pipelines und LNG-Terminals bauen 2.) Steuersystem hart reformieren > 20% Steuer auf jegliches Arbeitseinkommen >> Setzt Anreize sich anzustrengen, eliminiert die kalte Progression komplett > Kapitalertragssteuer und Steuer auf Mieteinnahmen komplett abschaffen >> Sorgt für massive Kapitalzuflüsse und neuen Bauboom > Erbschaftsteuer komplett abschaffen > Unternehmenssteuern auf 15% reduzieren 3.) Sozialsystem überarbeiten > Bürgergeld auf Sachdienstleistungen umstellen > Keine Mietübernahme im Bürgergeld, Sammelunterkünfte in strukturschwachen Gegenden > Keine Sozialleistungen für Ausländer > Entwicklungshilfe komplett abschaffen und mit dem Geld (25 Mrd€ pro Jahr) einen Kapitalstock für die Rentenversicherung aufbauen 4.) Entbürokratisieren > Alle neuen Vorschriften & Regulation seit 2000 komplett streichen > Nach 2 Jahren prüfen, was wirklich gebraucht wird 5.) Innere Sicherheit wieder herstellen > Grenzkontrollen > Keine Sozialleistungen für abgelehnte Asylbewerber > Hochsicherheitsgefängnisse für Tötungsdelikte, bei denen beim Täter Schizophrenie festgestellt wurde > Strafen für Mord, Vergewaltigung, schwere Körperverletzung signifikant erhöhen > Strafunmündigkeit von 14 auf 10 Jahre reduzieren Fazit: Leute werden in den Kommentaren schreiben, dass das rechte oder neoliberale Forderungen sind. Das ist nicht richtig. Die Sozialdemokraten in Dänemark agieren bspw. bei Sicherheit und Sozialhilfe für Ausländer deutlich(!) härter. 15% Unternehmenssteuer oder 20% Einkommensteuer sind meilenweit davon entfernt neoliberal zu sein. Wir konkurrieren mit Ländern wie VAE. Dort betragen beide Steuersätze 0%. #Deutschland #Wirtschaft #Reformen
