The deliberate impoverishment of public budgets, coupled with the introduction of limits on new debt for federal and state budgets, meant that cash-strapped municipalities were either unable to invest (investment backlog) or PPP projects were increasingly used as alternative financing models for necessary investments. Especially when a credit-financed conventional implementation of the same planned measure would have resulted in a new debt in violation of the Basic Law or. would have resulted in new borrowing in violation of the relevant state law. Future budgets will, however, be tied up in these PPP projects by the public sector's contractual obligation to pay user charges of the same or a similar nature as interest and redemption payment obligations or. burdens.
What is the purpose of PPP
- In the case of PPP, loans, which always have to be taken out in order to build and renovate, are not taken out by the state but by the private company, which has to pay more debit interest than the state. (They could go broke!) These debts of private individuals to banks are not counted as public debt of the Federal Republic of Germany! (PPP booking trick)
- With PPP, the private "partner" hijacks the state as a money collector for the guaranteed returns (credit interest) per 30-year contract and additionally lets the users pay the more expensive debit interest for the loans. It is characteristic for concessions in the field of trunk roads that the private party is entrusted with the provision of services according to the PPP contract and does not receive any remuneration in return, but rather the right to levy and collect a toll.
- PPP contracts are never public but always secret, even more so before they are concluded. Even when it comes to core public services (water/roads), they are classified as trade and business secrets. Treason (even if done in the interest of the common good) is prohibited under penalty of law!
So we can clearly see who are the winners of PPP projects and who are the losers! That is why the Federal Audit Office unanimously rejects PPPs. The federal government brushes aside this criticism and pursues its goal. The goal is privatization! The citizens, however, must not know this before the big deal is decided at their expense!
