==Economic program==
Never before in [[German]] history has a man who had not even been elected chancellor yet negotiated the biggest borrowing in the history of the [[Federal Republic of Germany]] with parties that lost the election, in a [[Bundestag]] that was long sincedissolved.
Merz proposes to double the [[national debt]] from 62.4% of [[GDP]] to 125% with a 1.7 Trillion (Trillion with a "T") [[euro]] increase in spending to remilitarize for aggressive [[war]] against [[Russia]]. In 2024, Germany collected income taxes totaling slightly more than 1.8 Billion euros at the federal level. This means that for nearly 10 years, 100% of total income taxes would have to be spent on the repayment of 1,700 Trillion euro spending increase.
