Caritas boss warns: savings plans endanger the weakest of society!
In a heated debate, Caritas director Elisabeth Rathgeb reacted to the controversial comments from the State Councilor Mario Gerber. Gerber, who in the Tyrolean daily newspaper has to be "tidy up" during social funding, sees itself with a decisive criticism from the ranks of the social institutions confronted. The urgent and urgent questions of Rathgeb to the well -being of the weakest in society quickly made the rounds: Can the government and society afford to consider peculiarities such as the reduction of the compensation allowance for minimum pensioners or the deletion of minimum security for single parents?
"Who is specifically affected?" Asked Rathgeb, who urgently appealed to the responsibility of politics to preserve the social security network. Your reminder: the savings should not be held on the back of the poorest of their fellow citizens. The Caritas director emphasized that social funding not only secure the existence of many people, but also act as an economic engine. Every euro in this area flows directly back into the domestic economy, for example for rents and living costs, and thus promotes stability in times of crisis.
