Pro Bitcoin motion by the AfD

The demands themselves sound very good at first👀

But I'm afraid that the eyes of the German government, especially those of Lars Klingbeil, will immediately open $BTC (+1,12%) and that we can say goodbye to the holding period thanks to the campaign😂


In principle, Bitcoin is for everyone - whether left, right, up or down. But if you look at the dynamics in the Bundestag, I think there's a good chance that exactly the opposite of what the AfD fordert🤷‍♂️ is doing will happen.


What is your opinion on this?

@jkb92 Unbelievable but unfortunately true. And they don't even try to hide it anymore. At a panel discussion with well-known and less well-known people from the scene, Martin Sellner, when asked whether he would abolish the party system once he himself was the sovereign, replied succinctly: "Yes."

That's what you get if you vote for this party because of its pro-crypto stance.

@Yoshika You mean the parties that changed the constitution by voting out the Bundestag? The ones who acted exactly against the will of the voters? The voters had elected a Bundestag that would no longer have agreed to this. Change my mind.

@Baraccus I wasn't thrilled about it either, but it happened within the democratic framework and was legally legitimate. I can only partially agree that it was against the will of the voters. 1) I wouldn't say across the board that the new Bundestag wouldn't have agreed to it. However, the AfD or the Left would have had better negotiating power and would have had more weight in the decision-making process and possibly negotiated one of their most important points into it. Since it was put together as a package (I think that's totally cheeky, but that's also legitimate), the Greens also tended to give in because they wanted the infrastructure billions and the climate protection commitment. 2) The majority of people voted in polls in favor of reforming the debt brake. Almost 80% were in favor of more debt for infrastructure and 66% for more debt for the Bundeswehr.

Such proposals are used to attract voters, greed quickly takes hold, and then such parties are still considered progressive, even though they only act in their own interests and the elitist power interests of foreign elites. Björn Höcke leads the fastest way to expropriation.

The AfD should propose that taxes on share profits, dividends, etc. should generally be abolished if the holding period is longer than 12 months. Alternatively, it should campaign for an increase in the tax-free allowance for savers.

@Emdy There is no double taxation for pensioners.
No matter how often you repeat it, it is still not true.

There are old-age relief rates and pension contributions from gross (untaxed money).

And then there are the income limits like for every other citizen.
@portfolio_maestro_4200 So that we are then completely governed by the left? We need an antithesis.

@Transporter First enough people have to vote for the AFD so that they can do something, so far many are still voting for the parties that tax them 5 to 7 times and it's still not enough. You don't have to understand why people keep choosing their executioner.

@Transporter Where in Germany as a whole did we have a left-wing state? Ok, from the AfD/CSU position, black-red is of course left-wing... Regarding the main comment: I would also like to see an increase in the tax-free allowance for savers, as well as a reduction in the share profits of the little man for private protection. I would only accept a complete tax reduction on financial gains if the contribution assessment ceiling is increased (preferably eliminated). Then: everyone pays into a pension system and the two-tier health insurance system should be merged, then I would be satisfied. Otherwise, the distribution of wealth will drift further apart, with many households barely being able to save anything and those who have the luxury of making their money work for them being able to increase their wealth (almost) tax-free. Conclusion: Progressive taxation and incentives for wealth accumulation for working wealth creators. The AfD is a more neoliberal party than the FDP coupled with isolationist nationalism. To what extent they would manage to reduce the powder keg of "wealth inequality" is beyond me. Simply reduce taxes in general? Promotes the powder keg.
immagine del profilo
@Staatsmann Unfortunately, that's not true across the board... But I realize that. Everything for the state, everything for the club. Carry on.
immagine del profilo
@Emdy Today, pension contributions are paid from gross. In other words, untaxed money.

Those who used to pay pension contributions from their net income now have the age relief rates, which exempt pensions from tax on a flat-rate basis.

You could understand that if you wanted to.
But of course you can also just moan and accuse others of obeying the authorities.

I understand that here (and everywhere) nobody really wants to pay taxes. Same here. I put time into my tax return every year to pay less. It feels like honestly earned money is being taken away from you. And what do you get back? *wink wink*
If you don't depend on the state to support you with education, transport, housing and food, that's easy to say. But other people rely on taxes to support the welfare state. Self-inflicted or not. It's like the stock market, we can't all win. Society has always been built on inequality.
And let's be honest, if I make my 50k through bitcoin, I've done absolutely nothing except bet on a price. Just give away your x% like every other person who earns their income from their 9 to 5 job and you still got the 1000x better deal. Or don't do it, but then please don't have health insurance either and pay for your medication out of your own pocket. Your child wants student loans, nope. Do that with your bitcoins.

@lukilouie I think that's a very valid point.
I believe that it would be much more pleasant for many people to have more transparency and communication about what happens with their tax deductions.
The media almost only reports on tax wastage, which builds up frustration (and is absolutely justified) - but if the tax money was invested in meaningful projects focused on exactly the topics mentioned and this was somehow made transparent, fewer people would probably be worried that something was being "taken away" from them.

At the end of the day, we always want a purpose.

Well... Most of the money you invest has already been taxed at least once anyway. And you don't get any losses back. You can always carry forward losses. Nevertheless, I don't quite agree with your argument.
Objectively speaking, there is no reason at all why the state should take taxes from you on capital gains. Or can someone explain to me why exactly they are helping themselves here?
immagine del profilo
Germany should have been pro-Bitcoin for a long time. Another point where we are being passed by, but if you look at the German "experts", you quickly realize that Germany itself has a problem understanding the topic of investment😂

Even as a member of the CDU/CSU, this "voting against everything the AFD likes purely on principle" really gets on my nerves - you can't do anything with it erreichen🤷🏻‍♂️

Wow, I'm honestly surprised - that actually sounds like a well thought-out and substantial proposal from the AfD. 🤔 Wouldn't have thought that there was so much understanding of Bitcoin and the technology behind it.

However, I fully agree with you: the "dinosaurs" in the Bundestag are likely to reflexively block the topic again, simply because it comes from the AfD. Instead of dealing with the content, they will probably once again bring out the well-known prejudices about Bitcoin as an "object of speculation" or "energy guzzler". 🙄

Wasn't there once a Bitcoin lobby or initiative that tried to position the issue objectively in the Bundestag? Somehow that never really seems to have fallen on fertile ground.

In the end, as you say, the project will probably never come to fruition anyway, as people in Germany are too much in line with the ECB. And Madame Lagarde recently emphasized again how "dangerous" she thinks Bitcoin is... 😅

A party that is struggling with illegal funds is campaigning for less registration. A rogue who thinks evil. I'm surprised that the CDU didn't switch its black accounts to BTC a long time ago.

But let's get to the point. Of course the proposal is not bad, but do the other parties have anything against BTC? At first it sounds as if the other parties have something against it and, of course, they are shooting against the central banks and the euro for no reason. I simply assume that they have zero interest in BTC but want to fish for cheap votes. Central banks and the ability to generate money are intrinsically important for a competitive economy. Why was China able to expand so brutally? Because they invested on credit and the tactic is working. This would not have been possible with BTC alone.

I also see the ambivalent desired role of BTC as problematic. If it is a currency, then there should be no holding period. If it is an object of speculation, then the holding period should apply, but then it is not a currency and not relevant for the state.

Without any political judgment, this is a very good proposal, but it is not a kindergarten club either. I am not at all surprised that the AfD is calling for tax exemption for Bitcoin profits, as it is neoliberal in its top party structure and at its core, and the connection to Trump is more than obvious (ultimately, the party was formed by Western professors from the anti-euro economy). The dynamic in the party is that there are many currents that are very opposed to each other, but currently they all benefit from each other. I don't think Höcke and Weidel, for example, are similar in their political orientations. I am of the opinion that Bitcoin should be taxed like financial products.
