Gabriel as economy minister – miscast – THE WORLD

Perhaps in the end nobody can prove Sigmar Gabriel wrongdoing in the case Kaiser’s / Tengelmann. And maybe, just maybe, the decision of the Minister of Economy, to want to press to take over the retail chain by Edeka by “ministerial approval”, ultimately cost more jobs than save.

quite certainly will remain a stale aftertaste. A man who is to administer the estate of Ludwig Erhard, has defied the Council of the officially appointed competition experts – and have to ask for the way in which he did so presumably, listening to senior judges serious allegations

It may be that as SPD leader Gabriel is still the right man at the right time. Mag also be that he would be the best candidate for chancellor for his party. not he the Office

Gabriel should have access to the Treasury after the election in 2013 – but the post of economy minister not good for him.. A comfortable item in these times: The supreme treasurer can thanks to zero-rate policy and a robust labor market quite easily monopolize the glory of the “black zero” for themselves without having to force the Cabinet colleagues to significant savings efforts

Sigmar Gabriel would make

And Gabriel would have to do, other than the tax policy ambition loose Wolfgang Schäuble it does, can work creatively – about by a resolute reduction of “cold progression”, a particularly socially unjust form of tax increase.

Gabriel however was guided by the lure of being able to shine as economy minister – if only because the predecessor had remained so pale. The last man standing in the sense Erhard and Karl Schiller was Wolfgang Clement.

Then came the apathetic-looking Michael Glos, who unserious Rainer Brüderle, the hapless Philipp Rösler. Glamour spread between Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg, but did not stay long in office and it could manage at this time, to be against the Opel rescue and also for it.

that Gabriel now felt three times a week with some fanfare in launching a new support program for start-ups, can not conceal how ungrateful is the job of the Federal Minister of economy and energy. The energy revolution is long vermurkst hopeless.

The Wirtschaftmsinister than traditional Lord Privy Seal

And then there is yet TTIP, the widely hated transatlantic free trade agreement, by which anyone who wanted to could know from the outset that it would not come about. If the traditional function of the Minister of Economy as regulatory Lord Privy Seal, which is important in times of general disorientation than ever.

that Gabriel could fill this role at all, is questionable in view of its volatility often shown. But he will probably not well; Social Democrat like rather than industrial policy makers, as just shows at Kaiser’s / Tengelmann.

end of 2017, the country will probably, one way or another get a new economy minister. It is also time.
