Economy in need: Majority sees the future of the Austrians threatened!

In the current OGM survey, almost two thirds of the Austrians express great concern about the economy. In view of the alarming bankruptcy and termination wave, 64 % of those surveyed look pessimistically into the future. 28 % even see our prosperity at risk, while only 3 % believe that the next federal government can solve the existing problems. 51 % believe that the outgoing government of the ÖVP and the Greens failed to counteract them in good time, such as ots.at reported.

In addition to the economic crisis, Austrians are also very concerned about security through immigration. According to the survey, 67 %believe that it is dangerous in certain districts. 31 % in particular see Jews, homosexuals and young women in danger, while 36 % believe that all citizens should no longer stay in these districts at night. This concern is reinforced by the restless political discussion and the perspective on a new coalition of three.

political instability and voter forgiving

The political landscape in Austria suffers from a poor reputation of politicians. Exclusive surveys show that a large part of the population perceives political representatives as incapable and corrupt. Large reforms are considered necessary, but the parties get involved in dirt campaigns, which moves many voters for abstinence in elections, such as Servustv . Former Chancellor Sebastian Kurz draws a bitter balance over ten years in top politics and criticizes the trend of negative campaigning that endangers democracy.

The discussion about the quality of politicians is considered threatening by experts like Thomas Hofer. He emphasizes that the political elite damages itself, while Irmgard suggests Griss that politicians should be less influential without practical experience in society, such as through voluntary work. Top consultant Gundi Wentner suggests developing clear requirement profiles for political staff in order to increase quality in politics, which could change the image of politicians.
