23.6 Million Deficit and Spending Freeze! CDU and SPD Show Their True Greatness: Bleeding the Districts Dry!Fantastic, absolutely fantastic! The Burgenland district under its CDU district administrator Götz Ulrich has once again really outdone itself and crafted a 2026 budget that is beautifully deep in the red. 
Bravo, Burgenland district! Another masterpiece of Saxony-Anhalt budget artistry!The State Administration Office has, of course, “approved” the budget — with conditions attached, naturally. Generously, they refrained from filing an objection. How gracious! A deficit of nearly 23.6 million euros in the operating budget — now that has style. The legally required balanced budget? Oh, that’s just an annoying formality from bygone days.And that’s not all: the medium-term financial planning shows negative balances over several years. Securing solvency only through ever more liquidity loans — now that’s what I call sustainable fiscal policy! Particularly impressive is the spending freeze that the district administrator is now allowed to implement. Goal: at least 3.6 million euros in savings during ongoing operations. Wonderful! Another one of those measures the State Administration Office loves so much. They approve and freeze at the same time. This is modern administrative fetishism at its finest. Voluntary services in particular are now to be “critically reviewed for their necessity.” Translated, that means: get rid of all the frills that actually make life in the district bearable for people. No funding for clubs, no decent cultural or sports programs, no youth projects, no small grants for volunteer work, village festivals, etc. — all that annoying icing on the cake that citizens mistakenly consider quality of life. The core administration with its positions, reports, meetings, and official cars will, of course, continue running smoothly. After all, bureaucracy has to function even when nothing outside does anymore. And here’s the kicker: the Burgenland district is not alone. The Harz district just went through the same spectacle with a deficit of over 20 million and its own spending freeze. Apparently, this is a statewide phenomenon. But don’t worry — it’s certainly not the fault of high-level politics! Therefore, a huge and sincere round of applause for the CDU- and SPD-led state government and the federal government! You are doing this masterfully. Year after year, with your magnificent financial distribution system, you ensure that districts, towns, and municipalities remain chronically underfunded. Never enough money for the responsibilities transferred to them, but always new obligations piled on top. That’s real teamwork between state and federal government! You set the framework conditions, the districts then get to raise the district levy (once again increased in differentiated fashion in Burgenland district — how caring!), suffocate the municipalities, and in the end the State Administration Office imposes a spending freeze. A perfect cycle of diffused responsibility. Thomas Pleye, president of the State Administration Office, speaks of a “reliable framework.” Yes, reliable it is: reliably broken. Reliably expensive. Reliably humiliating for everyone who actually has to work on the ground. The consolidation concept will, of course, continue to be updated. Until someday. Maybe 2035. Or 2040. Until then, cuts will continue — especially to the things that actually benefit citizens. The administration itself will, naturally, remain fully operational. After all, someone has to write the press releases that make everything sound so wonderful. Chapeau, Saxony-Anhalt! Keep it up. With this mixture of underfunding, levy increases, and spending freezes, we will surely soon succeed in leaving the districts with nothing but bare-bones mandatory administration. Quality of life? Voluntary services? Citizen proximity? Those are merely relics from a time when people still believed politics existed for the people. Wonderful. Truly absolutely, absolutely wonderful.
