Unrealistische Einnahmeplanung durch Geber und Nehmer: das Beispiel Bremen

Abstract: A long-term analysis of incorrect revenue forecasts for the state of Bremen shows the importance of these forecasts for the failure of budgetary rehabilitation programmes. The findings contradict those analysts who blame misleading incentives in the federal distribution system of common taxes and advocate expenditure cutting. Looking forward, this development may reoccur, not only in Bremen but in other states as well, which would jeopardise the constitutional limit on deficits. This paper discusses the fiscal policy conclusions to draw from this unrealistic planning, addressing both the problems of states in a budgetary crisis and the system of tax distribution in Germany, which has to be reorganized in 2020 Copyright ZBW and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013
