Decline Predicted! Corporate Insolvencies and the Loud Silence of Regional PoliticsThe blows at the Leuna chemical site are becoming more severe. The company DOMO is going into emergency operation. And what does regional politics have to say about it?
Regional politics shrouds itself in silenceOn the channels of the Burgenland district, of District Administrator Götz Ulrich (CDU): nothing. State parliament member Rüdiger Erben (SPD) also posts nothing about it. The mayor of Hohenmölsen, Andy Haugk (non-party, CDU/FDP parliamentary group), speaks in an interview with the Mitteldeutsche Zeitung about the future of the district, focusing on the planned inter-municipal industrial and commercial areas and hydrogen. But when jobs are destroyed due to overall economic problems (some call them “challenges”) and insolvencies, there is silence in the forest.It is interesting that Sebastian Striegel (Greens) speaks up with a post and a link to an article by the IGBCE NORDOST trade union. He demands that the Federal Minister for Economic Affairs, Katherina Reiche (CDU), must take an interest in the challenges facing the East German economy and the chemical industry in particular. However, it is likely precisely the policies pushed by the Greens that have driven up energy prices and are advancing deindustrialization. Hot air from the Minister PresidentOnline it can be found that the still-incumbent Minister President Reiner Haseloff (CDU) already in 2022 called for long-term solutions for the Leuna Chemical Park, the Domo chemical plant, and SKW Piesteritz. As it appears, his demands have faded into nothingness. Obviously, it would have taken far more than lip service.No future in Germany?In the case of the chemical company Domo Chemicals, no creditors have so far been found who were willing to grant a short-term so-called debtor-in-possession loan. Those who are familiar with such companies therefore see no hope and no profitability in the future—at least not in Germany.Appeal to regional politicsThis should be a very clear sign and an appeal also to regional politics directed at the federal government and the EU to immediately abandon the chosen course. But regional and state politicians shroud themselves in silence and apparently merely hope for subsidies for projects that might possibly perhaps—given the economic situation, however, hardly—create relevant jobs. And certainly not if politics continues to destroy the economy through its “climate protection measures.”Climate forecast massively exaggeratedRecommended, among other things, is the following video. Gerd Ganteför talks about the fact that the model calculations on which politics and media rely to stoke fear of climate change are exaggerated. He also illustrates this very clearly.Party affiliation more important than the people?The question is how long regional politics will continue to see itself more strongly bound to its party affiliation than to its actual task—namely to ensure that the people who at least partially elected them retain, as far as possible, optimal living and working conditions. This includes preserving existing jobs. But this can only succeed if EU and federal government policies are not only loudly opposed, but not participated in.Global energy consumption rising – Germany insignificantPerhaps the chart at https://energiestatistik.enerdata.net may also help in terms of the argument. It shows that global energy demand is rising. Energy consumption in Europe is slightly declining; however, Europe accounts for only a very small share of global total energy consumption. Worldwide energy consumption amounted to 15,937 Mtoe (million tonnes of oil equivalent). Europe’s share of this is 961 Mtoe. Germany’s share is just 78 Mtoe. The chart clearly shows that energy consumption in Asia has risen massively—precisely in those countries that are supposed to be significantly affected by climate change. Obviously, this hardly matters there—improving prosperity is more important to people. It is also evident that 81 percent of energy sources used are coal, gas, and oil. Electricity accounts for only 10 percent. It follows that even if Germany were CO2-neutral, this would in fact have no impact.Should deindustrialization continue?The question that regional politics should also ask itself is whether the deindustrialization of Germany and Europe, along with the loss of jobs and prosperity, is really intended to be the goal in order—when put into perspective—to achieve nothing in terms of climate protection, assuming the narrative of “evil CO2” is even tenable. Because the theory that human-generated CO2 alone causes the warming of the atmosphere stands on very shaky ground.Decline predictedThe following video from 2019 should also at least be acknowledged. In it, both the co-founder of Greenpeace, Dr. Patrick Moore, and Dr. Horst Rehberger, former Minister for Economic Affairs and Labor and former Deputy Minister President of Saxony-Anhalt, warn of the consequences of political decisions that will lead to an industrial decline like that in the Ruhr region.Author: AI-Translation - Michael Thurm | |
