Paul De Grauwe is professor aan de London School of Economics. Hij gelooft niet dat de begrotingssanering breed zal gedragen worden door de bevolking, door de privileges voor de mensen met hogere inkomsten. ‘Ook het vertrouwen in de politiek zal verder geërodeerd worden.’
Het wegwerken van de privileges voor hogere inkomens zou het begrotingstekort snel doen dalen

Zonder loonsubsidies zou de brutowinstmarge van Belgische bedrijven tussen 1996 en 2024 gestegen zijn van 36% naar 40%. Mét de loonsubsidies is de stijging van de winstmarge dubbel zo groot.

Pritzker: Throughout history we've learned that tyranny doesn't arrive with dramatic proclamations. Most times it comes quietly wrapped in the language of law and order, with fingers pointed at someone who doesn't look like you, promising safety while demanding that we sacrifice our neighbors.
