How do you do that? Exactly: you find the biggest watering can you can get your hands on and use it to push the fuel price down by around 17 cents. So once again, fossil energy is being subsidized. The oil multinationals are surely popping champagne corks again right now. They haven’t learned a thing up there. Once again, you save a little while filling up your big Porsche.
Yes, fuel prices annoy me too. But, at the risk of repeating myself: fuel prices are completely irrelevant to electric car drivers!
What could have been done with the €2.5 billion? A basic child allowance, the Deutschlandticket, renovating railway lines, or installing air conditioning in classrooms. In my opinion, that would have been money much better spent.
What about food? The nice old lady next door would benefit from that too. She doesn’t drive, but she still has to eat. Food is getting more and more expensive. Why? Shouldn’t the state focus its efforts there instead? Staple foods (including vegan products such as plant-based milk, for example). And no—the high food prices are not due to fuel prices! Shortages aren’t the reason either.
