Abstract

The German Government is planning an ecologically orientated tax reform. The draft consists of two parts, an increase in energy taxes and a government subsidy to the national old age pension system in order to reduce direct contributions of the labor force to the pension system. The initiative is supposed to be a first step to higher energy taxes as a measure to reduce air pollution and to reduce labor costs at the same time. But the concept does not create a “double dividend” as is promised in the draft.
