Its great Coaler thinks tax cuts might be dangerous for a continued function of the state. I think its only obvious he likes a certain purpose as president.

I think its great Coaler doesnt like to have the train derouted. In effect its still a bit unstringent what he says. I dont get this debt-driven consumption thing. I think either u got money or u dont got money. Debts start when u need new money. Germany doesnt need new money right now. Its only the case that Westerwelle tried to hide his disperformance by tax cuts. Coaler doesnt root the problem. As always.
