Artificial intelligence described the example of a retiree who had worked all his life, lived frugally, and rented out a semi-detached house as a pension plan. It wrote that he wanted to sell the rented property in retirement but, due to the abolished 10-year holding period, would have to fully tax the difference between the purchase price and the selling price. Even if the selling price turned out to be lower than expected due to the tight market situation and new energy standards, artificial intelligence argued that, from the tax office's perspective, a profit could arise. As an example, it mentioned an increase in price from €200,000 to €350,000 and pointed out that the purchasing power of the euro had fallen to half over the past decades. According to its presentation, costs for maintenance and renovations, vacancies, and difficulties with tenants were not taken into account. Artificial intelligence criticized that people who had saved and refrained from consumption could ultimately pay for their retirement plans through taxation. At the same time, it claimed that saved money was distributed all over the world and benefited people who had lived less frugally. Finally, it asked what lessons future generations would learn from this injustice. #Kapitalismus #Altersvorsorge #SozialeGerechtigkeit (translated)

Prof. Karl Kautabak, the Minister of Health, wrote in a satire that it is considered "perceived injustice" when people without prior contributions to the social system receive the same benefits as long-term contributors.

According to him, politicians regularly increase their salaries while demanding that the population work longer or pay more taxes.

Bei Markus Lanz darf ich heute u.a. mit @hubertus_heil diskutieren (um 22.45 Uhr im ZDF). Wir waren bei der Aufzeichnung in so gut wie keinem Punkt einer Meinung – von den Gründen für die Misere der SPD bis zu den Ungerechtigkeiten seines «Bürgergeldes», das zur Hälfte an Ausländer ging und immer noch geht. Nur bei der Bestellung im Bordbistro waren wir uns als Niedersachsen gerade schnell einig. #SPD #Bürgergeld #Politik
