After a ruling by the Federal Constitutional Court, the German government is suddenly missing many billions. The reason is the debt brake – which the Germans copied from the Swiss of all people. Why does it work there but not in Germany? And what should we make of it if the state puts financial chains on itself? In Austria a decision has been made against a corresponding rule in the constitution.
