    This is genuinely hilarious that anyone believes this, but hey if it gets them to invest in climate stuff then please keep believing 8% growth is possible!

      The FDP is gonna throw a big fit if they'll actually attempt that... or increase the deficit for any other reason than militarization or gifts for the rich/the car industry. And with restrictive renewable energy placement laws in places like Bavaria, it's barely even possible.

      Yeah, I do think that 8%+ are possible for what climate change investment can produce. I don't think that Germany will do that, not only cause of the debt ceiling and neoliberalism which makes that untouchable.
