The German automotive industry faces a crisis, experiencing a 25% production decline since 2018 and significant job losses. The government, amidst economic challenges including an energy crisis and competition from China, held an auto summit to address the situation. The author criticizes the summit, suggesting it was a performance rather than a genuine effort for solutions. The author claims that the government is dedicated to the eco-socialist agenda, showing no willingness to change course. The government proposes more subsidies for electric vehicles despite the failure of similar measures in the past. The piece suggests the combustion engine ban will persist, thus supporting the green ideology that hinders the economy. The author believes the government prioritizes a vision of green, collective mobility over individual car ownership. The summit's outcome, according to the author, will involve new subsidies to revive the green economy. The author expects this policy to lead to economic and societal failure, emphasizing the bond market's signals. The author sees the summit as a media maneuver pushing a socialist restructuring of the economy. The author's perspective is that this approach is unsustainable and destined to fail.
