Bernd Kaiser accused Fritz-Kola of double standards. He wrote that the company had presented itself as left-wing and anti-capitalist for years, but was now criticizing the planned sugar tax, which would particularly impact the company due to its sugar content of 10.5 grams per 100 milliliters. Kaiser estimated Fritz-Kola's annual revenue at 116 million euros and said the company complained about bureaucracy and hundreds of additional customs officers. At the same time, he criticized that Fritz-Kola was acting as a sponsor of the CDU party conference. The tax, according to Kaiser, would burden local medium-sized businesses while large corporations like Coca-Cola would be less affected. #Zuckersteuer #Doppelmoral https://t.co/vNlj5kf4H6 #Doppelmoral #Sozialismus #Wirtschaft (translated)

Lexa wrote that Alice Weidel sharply criticized Friedrich Merz in the Bundestag, accusing him of having squandered a historical opportunity to restore Germany.

The author claims that Weidel accused the government of propelling deindustrialization through high energy prices, taxes, bureaucracy, and state interventions. Lexa wrote that Merz continued the previous failures in migration and social policy.
