The FDP rides on the neoliberal wave

The FDP does not want to be the majority buyer for the respective government (anymore). But what line is she pursuing? Just making a nice face and dismissing brisk slogans is probably enough for the election campaign but not for an independent role in a government:

Before the election, the FDP asserted that it was for the Paris Climate Agreement, but it needed to be implemented intelligently. The soundings revealed that she intelligently understands the continued operation of coal-fired power plants while sparing the energy companies' returns. And the diesel manufacturers should be allowed to continue producing so intelligently that their rate of profit does not have to go down. So, wash the fur and do not wet me.

Young refugees able to work should be allowed in, but without their family. Although the FDP wants to procure manpower from industry, it should not be considered antisocial. Her legal course, which she hid from the election, with which she even outruns the CSU, is now becoming clearer.

And where is the former social liberal line of the FDP? She has completely disappeared, her protagonists like Baum and Schnarrenberger have been muzzled, while Proverbs Lindner is also just a Westerwelle. Where does such a southpaw of the CDU have a place in the party structure of Berlin?

Internationally, the conservative, reactionary tendencies are at the height of the crest of the waves. The federal election campaign showed, however, that awareness of the societal divide is increasing significantly in Germany: Topics such as care and housing shortages have never been campaign topics before. And the tax cut issue has now been pushed into the background; The FDP in particular is not known for wanting to close tax loopholes.

So where does the FDP stand? On the far right we already have the AfD as a right-wing protest party.
