FPÖ – Fuchs: “Brunner’s balance sheet is a success for the state treasury alone” | Freedom Parliamentary Club

“It can’t be surpassed in irony when ÖVP Finance Minister Brunner wants to see a positive result in his work. Because the willfully neglected fight against inflation and price increases gave the minister a golden nose worth several billion euros. As is well known, the tax burden on energy and fuel is very high, half of every cent that a liter of fuel costs more goes to the minister, and one hundred percent of the corporations’ excess profit tax flows into the state treasury – the consumer gets absolutely nothing from it is being bagged from start to finish,” reacted the liberal FPÖ budget and finance spokesman NAbg today. Hubert Fuchs and gave a few examples.

It is probably significant that Brunner highlighted the eco-social tax reform, which ultimately makes life difficult for every citizen in the country. While entrepreneurs have to let their fleet become obsolete because the increased standard fuel consumption tax makes it almost impossible to purchase new ones, commuters who rely on their vehicle can hardly afford to travel to work anymore because the CO2 tax makes fuel more expensive from year to year . “If this is to be a success, you have to ask yourself what an ÖVP and an ÖVP finance minister stand for – the destruction of prosperity, nothing else,” said Fuchs.

“Unemployment is rising, the economy is in shambles and national debt has reached record levels that are unparalleled. This catastrophe must finally come to an end. It is up to the voters to put an end to this tragedy and begin a new start with a strong FPÖ and a People’s Chancellor Herbert Kickl!” emphasized Fuchs.
