Das Klimaschutzparadoxum

Merkwürdig: Die Bedeutung von Klimaschutz nimmt ab, obwohl die Bedrohung steigt. Es ist das Klimaschutzrelevanzparadox, englisch ''climate protection relevance paradox''. Wie kam ich zu meiner Eingebung? Das hat mit der spärlichen Medienberichterstattung zum Klimagipfel in Doha zu tun. Der Klimaschutz ist nämlich zur Zeit medien- und relevanztechnisch so out wie Filterkaffee und Röhrenfernseher.

Im Juli letzten Jahres hatte das Bundessozialgericht in Kassel die neuerlicher Festlegung der Hartz IV Regelsätze als ''verfassungsgemäß'' beurteilt und eine entsprechende Klage abgewiesen. Nach Meinung der Richter sei die Höhe des Regelbedarfs für Alleinstehende nach dem SGB II für die Zeit ab 1. Januar 2011 nicht verfassungswidrig zu niedrig bemessen worden (AZ: B 14 AS 153/11 R). Gegen dieses skandalöse Urteil des Bundessozialgerichts wurde weitestgehend unbemerkt von der Öffentlichkeit eine Verfassungsbeschwerde eingereicht... Weiterlesen:

Schrittzähler für Hartz IV Bezieher

Der Chef des Jobcenters Brandenburg an der Havel, Christian Gärtner, ist für seine ''harte Gangart'' bekannt. So sagte dieser noch vor einigen Wochen gegenüber der Presse medienwirksam: ''Notfalls werden wir bei qualifizierungsunwilligen Leuten aber sanktionieren, bis sie raus sind aus dem Leistungsbezug'' (Märkische Allgemeine). Die Zeitung titelte entsprechend: ''Jobcenter fährt harte Linie gegen Verweigerer''. Eben jener hat sich nun etwas neues ausgedacht. 18 Erwerbslose haben einen Schrittzähler angeheftet bekommen, um zu messen, ob diese sich ''zu wenig bewegen''. Weiterlesen:

Wohlfahrtsverbände: Hartz-IV-Totalsanktionen sind verfassungswidrig

Es sind längst nicht mehr ''nur'' die Linkspartei oder Erwerbslosen-Gruppen, die Sanktionen bei Hartz IV als das entlarven, was sie sind: Verfassungswidrig. Zwei Spitzenverbände der Wohlfahrtspflege haben gegenüber dem ARD-Politikmagazin ''Report Mainz'' scharfe Kritik an den sogenannten ''Totalsanktionen'' geübt. Diese wurden im vergangenen Jahr laut offiziellen Angaben gegen mindestens 10.405 Bezieher von Hartz IV-Leistungen ausgesprochen. Totalentzug bedeutet, dass keinerlei Leistungen an den Leistungsberechtigten gezahlt werden. Bereits ab drei Verstößen können Jobcenter eine gänzliche Streichung der Regelleistungen für drei Monate aussprechen. Weiterlesen:

Hartz IV: Jobcenter schottet sich ab

So manches Jobcenter meint seine eigenen Gesetze schaffen zu müssen. Wie die Erwerbslosen-Initiative Gegenwind e.V. berichtet, werden regelmäßig Hilfesuchende an der Informationstheke des Jobcenters Zwickau-Glauchau abgewimmelt. Wer dennoch versucht, einen Behördenmitarbeiter aufgrund einer dringlichen Angelegenheit zu sprechen, hat böse Konsequenzen zu fürchten.... Lesen Sie weiter:

Neue Sanktionsdienstanweisung der Bundesagentur für Arbeit

''Die Bundesagentur für Arbeit hat eine neue ''Sanktionsarbeitshilfe'' herausgegeben. Nachdem dieses Jahr schon die Schallmauer ''Eine Millionen'' Sanktionen durchbrochen wurde, wollen sie das Fördern und Fordern offensichtlich weiter perfektionieren und insbesondere auf die Zielgruppe der U-25?er ausweiten. Vergessen wird von der BA dabei nur, dass das Fördern im SGB II über das ständige Streichen von Eingliederungsmitteln kaum noch oder auf einem Niveau stattfindet, welches man kaum noch fördern nennen kann.'' Soweit der Kommentar von Harald Thomé, siehe dazu die ''Sanktionsarbeitshilfe'' vom 20.11.2012: http://www.arbeitsagentur.de/nn_165870/zentraler-Content/HEGA-Internet/A04-Vermittlung/Dokument/HEGA-11-2012-VA-Uebertragung-der-Ausbildungsvermittlung.html

Die Schwächsten bleiben auf der Strecke

"In Spanien leiden Millionen unter sozialer Ausgrenzung und Armut. Es ist der eisige Wind der Austeritätspolitik, der jetzt Zehntausende Behinderte und Pflegebedürftige in Madrid auf die Straße trieb: Erstmals protestierten sie mit einer großen Demonstration gegen die Sparpolitik der konservativen Regierung'', so beginnt der Artikel ''Die Schwächsten bleiben auf der Strecke'' von Ralf Streck am 06.

Debatte um soziale Grundrechte und für Selbstbestimmung geht in neue Runde

6. Dezember 2012

Erwerbslose, Gewerkschaften und Wohlfahrtsverbände des ''Bündnisses für ein menschenwürdiges Existenzminimum'' fordern neben existenzsichernden gesetzlichen Mindestlöhnen bedeutend höhere Grundsicherungsleistungen und die Abschaffung der Sanktionen. Dazu erklärt die Vorsitzende der Partei DIE LINKE, Katja Kipping:

Das Recht auf Existenzsicherung und gesellschaftliche Teilhabe ist ein Grundrecht. Wer mit Hartz IV dieses Grundrecht verletzt, gefährdet die Demokratie und hebelt das Grundgesetz aus. Wer den Menschen die Entscheidungsfreiheit über ihre Arbeits- und Lebenszeit verwehrt, behindert selbstbestimmtes Leben. Mit seinen Forderungen unterstützt das ''Bündnis für ein menschenwürdiges Existenzminimum'' die Kämpfe für soziale Grundrechte und Selbstbestimmungsmöglichkeiten der Menschen. Die gesellschaftlichen Debatte darüber ist wieder eröffnet. Die Hartz-Koalition steht unter Druck.

Kaputtgesparte Generation: Deutschland profitiert von qualifizierten billigen Arbeitskräften

Kommentar von Reiner Wandler in der taz online vom 05.12.2012 http://www.taz.de/Kommentar-Jugendarbeitslosigkeit/!106904/

Aus dem Text: ''? Ein Blick in die Krisenländer zeigt: Reformen, die wie in Spanien und in Griechenland trotz heftiger Proteste umgesetzt wurden, liberalisieren den Arbeitsmarkt. Das schafft keine neuen Jobs, sondern erleichtert Entlassungen. In Spanien wurden nun mal wieder spezielle Arbeitsverträge für junge Menschen eingeführt. Diese genießen noch weniger Kündigungsschutz, und die Löhne sind meist so niedrig, dass ein eigenständiges Leben nicht möglich ist. Spanien habe seine Hausaufgaben gemacht, loben Brüssel und Berlin diese Politik??

Rösler pfeift auf bezahlbare Strompreise

6. Dezember 2012

''Statt die Großindustrie weiter zu entlasten soll die Bundesregierung endlich dafür sorgen, dass die Strompreise für private Stromkunden und kleine Unternehmen sinken. DIE LINKE fordert, die Strompreise einzufrieren bis die Bundesregierung endlich ein sozial ausgeglichenes Konzept für die ökologische Energiewende vorlegt'', erklärt die stellvertretende Parteivorsitzende der LINKEN, Caren Lay (MdB), anlässlich der Meldung des Handelsblatts, wonach Bundeswirtschaftsminister Rösler weitere 350 Millionen Euro jährlich für Ausgleichszahlungen an die energieintensive Industrie einplane. Lay weiter:

Rösler begründet die neuerlichen Privilegien für die Großindustrie mit dem Totschlagargument des Erhalts von Arbeitsplätzen. Wo war der Wirtschaftsminister, als durch die planlose Energiepolitik der Bundesregierung Solarunternehmen reihenweise in die Insolvenz getrieben wurden und die Beschäftigten auf der Straße standen? Der Wirtschaftsminister sollte sich dringend Gedanken machen, wie viele Arbeitsplätze bedroht sind durch die sinkende Kaufkraft. Denn die stetig wachsenden Kosten für Strom, Wärme und Benzin schlagen immer größere Löcher in die Budgets privater Haushalte und kleinerer Unternehmen. Auch dort sind deshalb Arbeitsplätze gefährdet. Die Klientelpolitik der Bundesregierung zu Gunsten der Industrie-Lobby ist unerträglich. Die Umverteilung zugunsten der Industrie schlugen im Bundeshaushalt 2012 mit 6,5 Milliarden Euro zu Buche. Weitere 2,6 Milliarden Euro bezahlen die Verbraucherinnen und Verbraucher über die Strompreise für die Großindustrie mit. Zusätzliche Kosten über mehrere Hundert Millionen Euro kommen 2013 durch die neu beschlossene Haftungsregelung des Off-Shore-Ausbaus und die Entschädigung für erzwungene Kraftwerksbetreibung auf die Stromkunden zu. Diese Politik auf dem Rücken der Verbraucherinnen und Verbraucher ist kalt und unsozial. Sie gefährdet die Akzeptanz der Energiewende. Es reicht! DIE LINKE fordert ein Strompreismoratorium bis die Regierung einen Fahrplan für eine sozial ausgeglichene Energiewende vorlegt.
