This is not well thought out and would call into question what we have just achieved. Investors in Germany have just found their way back to shares. The FAZ has just written about one of the largest German online brokers, which has multiplied its number of customers with savings plans on index funds. This means that many people have invested successfully and have rediscovered the stock. To stall this now with such announcements would be absolutely devastating. Now Habeck & Co. are trying to row back. However, if – as it is now said – only millionaires were to be used, the effect would hardly be noticeable. Because there are certainly hardly any millionaires whose income is below the contribution assessment limit. Or should the citizens' councils, from which Robert Habeck wants to work out the details of his idea, develop a completely new system of assessment limits? Overall, I think this is a half-baked and counterproductive idea, which leads to massive uncertainty.
