This new C02 tax coming down in the next year or two in Germany? You remember how I explained that the CDU-CSU and SPD folks were working on the deal that the tax would be split among the owner/renter....50-50?
You might also remember that I laid out that most owners did not want to pay on the tax, and most hinted that they'd raise rent....to compensate for this additional tax on them?
Well....today....the big deal came down, and the two groups could NOT get the deal done. So the renter will pay the entire C02 tax themselves. The owner/landlord is out of this mess.
Irking a number of Germans? OH YEAH.
It'll be discussed for weeks, but in another ten days or so....the politicians all go off on summer leave, so they don't care.
Public view of the upcoming C02 tax? Well....the news folks haven't polled anyone, and its hard to say that this is coming across positive right now.
Affecting the September election? It ought to be talked about but it seems that most of the parties are all huddled under the tax umbrella and no one is really anti-tax.
