In the Tölzer Land of the reactions on the stimulus package is mostly positive.
Bad Tölz-Wolfratshausen– A stimulus package with a volume of 130 billion euros to help Germany out of the economic valley of the Corona-crisis. Prominent key points of the package of Measures decided by the Federal government, are a temporary reduction in VAT from 19 to 16 percent (reduced rate: from 7 to 5), a 300-Euro Bonus per child for families, and the Acquisition of 50 per cent of the trade tax losses in the municipalities by the Federal government. Rejected a purchase premium for cars with combustion engine. In the district of the reactions on the stimulus package is mostly positive.
Sabrina pigeons Berger and Gerhard Taubenberger, dealership Taubenberger in Bad Tölz: “We are glad that there is now no buyer’s premium for cars. You have seen it for the last Time, when the scrappage scheme: all have been scrapped for vehicles, which were still well – because values have been destroyed. With the premium, many people have bought more cars from cheaper foreign brands. And you also have to paint the car companies belly and tax funds to promote, so you can then pay compensation for previous fraud. With the reduction of the VAT you can achieve more, because it reaches all. Since you can discuss at least with the customers: You get two percent, and I have one.“
Stephanie Schumacher-Gebler from Bad Tölz, the mother of four children (12, twice 8 and 4 years old):”Of the grant of 300 Euro per child, I do not think so much. I think that fizzles for the individual relatively quickly, but in sum, then, but a huge amount for the state is obtained. And these debts will ultimately have to pay for our children later. Many families would certainly be helped better, if you are thinking of how to get small children with creative concepts faster again back in the care. Because, beyond the families, for the emergency care, all children need social contact and need to return to your children everyday.“
Josef Niedermaier, head of the district: “I was skeptical in the beginning and had feared that a compromise comes out. But what package is now available in the economy, that sounds very positive and is a real boost of motivation. There are many claims we have formulated in the Bavarian district Council are to be found. For example, that the Federal government wants to help the 2.5 billion euros of revenue in public TRANSPORT to compensate for – which is already a decent package. Very good is that the proposal to incorporate the existing debts of the municipalities, comes to fruition, but there are targeted grants for investment. The issue of compensation for trade tax breakdowns, I am pleased that these compensation payments will be applied to the tax capacity of the municipalities, so that in a second and third level of the district and of the district about the levy payments to profit: it is fairer.
Also that the Federal government increased its share of the cost of the accommodation for Hartz-IV recipients from 50 to 75 percent, helps us, even if we are saving in this area is sure of anything, because we are expected to get more Hartz-IV-receiver. And that the VAT will be lowered, of which I had not dared to dream to. Of them all, and not just those that scream the loudest benefit. I think that the tax reduction is only due to the consumer more, but they will help any company in its liquidity and investment capacity.“
Martina Müller, owner of “flowers gallery” and Chairman of the advertising community Lenggries:”in Principle, the VAT reduction is a good approach to help the companies. Of course, it depends on whether it is a business that can say that it has come through by the time of the closure with a light blue eye, or whether it is, for example, an operation in the area, catering, Hotel, events or artists. You are sure to need additional targeted assistance.“
Gerhard Knill, owner of the concrete plant, Kuehne Geretsried and circle Chairman of the SME Union: “The stimulus package is in all cases a strong Signal. I am in principle no friend of the watering can, but it is also clear to me that such a program can not be structured in such a way that it covers precisely everything. Good investments and all are on all cases, which allows investments to be made. Because this money comes back eventually. The VAT reduction is definitely in order, if the fuels consumption. The only question is, what makes people really buy and whether the lower rate actually matters to the end customer. That families are supported, can I find the right one. You have a lot to endure and to make. But here, too, the question of whether the families to spend this money again. Glad I am that the social insurance contributions will not be increased, although the coffers empty. It is important to me that the state sometime back, and his controlling Hand is not permanently on the economy.“
Ingo Mehner, mayor of Bad toelz: “We still do not know how municipalities will be affected by the economic consequences of the Corona-crisis. What is clear is that with a time lag, plays a lot on us. The town of Bad Tölz welcomes, therefore, the compensation measures in each case. For a qualified evaluation many of the Details are missing so soon after the release but still.“
