Great interview with IG Metall trade unionist in eastern Germany:

"We're very concerned about the future of the region's two major factories. We need to invest in research and development.

Decisive investment by companies such as Alstom, and new funding from the local and national governments, are essential. But budgetary orthodoxy & the priority given to increasing shareholder value are turning our backs on these challenges."

RT by @ph_lamberts: For most, buying a house to invest in the future means taking out loan & paying it off over time.

Same goes for governments. But some politicians obsess over debt reduction at the expense of investments.

Why we reject the new economic rules

Pausing traditional fiscal rules has benefited our economy in the recent crises. Going back to business as usual would have harmful effects.
