"Never mind the high taxes, stop leaving. I've talked about perhaps lowering the taxes, what more do you want?"

Schröder Calls on Companies to Create Jobs In Germany
By RICHARD BERNSTEIN

Published: March 28, 2005


ERLIN, March 27 - Chancellor Gerhard Schröder, in comments published Sunday, calls on German companies to stop moving jobs and factories outside of the country in search of cheaper labor and lower taxes and to invest in Germany to provide badly needed employment here.

Speaking a bit more than a week since he proposed a cut in corporate taxes, Mr. Schröder contended that the package of economic changes made under his leadership in the past couple of years had led to a renewal of German competitiveness.

"Conditions are right," he said in an interview published in the newspaper Bild am Sonntag. "Therefore, the constant talk of moving production and jobs should stop, and there should be investment in Germany..."
 
"There should be investment in Germany."

Hey they should just pass a law. Not investing in germany should be declared illegal!
 
they are talking about raising the federal consumption tax from 16% to 18%.

That sure wont help.
