‚Lifestyle-Teilzeit‘ und zu oft krank? Was will die Union...

What this episode covers

Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz findet, 14,5 Krankentage sind zu viel, Gitta Connemann, die Vorsitzende der Mittelstands- und Wirtschaftsunion will kein Recht auf "Lifestyle-Teilzeit". Die Botschaft: die Menschen in Deutschland arbeiten zu wenig, sind zu oft krank und zu wenig leistungsbereit. CDU und CSU setzen auf harsche Appelle für mehr Arbeitsmoral. Ihre Antworten auf die Wirtschaftskrise lauten: länger Arbeiten und ein schlankerer Sozialstaat. In der schwarz-roten Koaltion treiben sie die SPD vor sich her. 2026 soll das Jahr der Reformen sein, haben Friedrich Merz und CSU-Chef Markus Söder verkündet. Rhetorisch setzen sie auf altbekannte Narrative, die Erinnerungen an die Zeiten der Agenda 2010 hervorrufen. Drohen jetzt Sozialabbau, Leistungskürzungen und die Schleifung von Arbeitnehmerrechten? Welche Vorschläge hat die Sozialsstaatskommission gemacht? Und was wären zeitgemäße sozial- und wirtschaftspolitische Antworten auf den Fachkräftemangel und die Krise der Automobil- und Chemieindustrie?
