Kinder im Alter von unter drei Jahren in der SGB II-Statistik

Immer wieder behaupten vor allem konservative, neoliberale oder rechte Kreise, dass die Zahl der Hartz IV Bezieher mit der Geburtenrate der Betroffenen ansteige. Dieser 'Eindruck' wird fortlaufend in Debatten verwendet, um Arbeitslosengeld II Leistungen perspektivisch zu kürzen. Zudem wird mit dem Scheinargument die Angst verbreitet, die Sozialausgaben würden somit den bundesdeutschen Haushalt immer weiter belasten. Das Bremer Institut für Arbeitsmarktforschung und Jugendberufshilfe (BIAJ) hat sich die Zahlen aus der Hauptstadt Berlin genauer angeschaut. Das Ergebnis: Die statistische Auswertung deckte sich keineswegs mit dem sozialrassistischen Argument, 'Hartz IV Familien bekommen viele Kinder'. Hier nun die Ergebnisse...

Jobcenter streicht wieder Schwangeren Hartz IV

Schon wieder hat ein Jobcenter einer schwangeren Frau die kompletten Hartz IV Leistungen gestrichen. Nach Angaben des Erwerbslosen Forums Deutschland (ELO) hat das Jobcenter Bonn die Sanktion ausgesprochen, weil die Betroffene aufgrund einer ärztlich verordneten Bettruhe einen Meldetermin beim Fallmanager nicht wahrgenommen hatte. In einem Anschreiben heißt es, sie sei 'trotz Belehrung über die Rechtsfolgen der Aufforderung zur Mitwirkung' nicht nachgekommen.. Weiter lesen:

The Unacceptables

William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: 'And so begins again the Herculean task of wrapping my poor, abused mind around yet another crop of Faustian caricatures lined up to scrap and scrape for the Republican presidential nomination. They seem to get worse every year, but this time around, there are definitely a lot more bananas in the bunch.'

Bush III Takes His Stand in South Carolina

Tolu Olorunda, CounterPunch: 'When Perry speaks, a notion is nudged - that a joke far too turbulent is traveling within him, and only the truly perverted hold antennas strong enough to detect the signals. He smiles using up as little fraction of chin space possible, speaking of his Horatio Alger parents, sinking his right and left pupil deep down, casting a gaze far off beyond the camera s lenses. And those bullet eyes seem to hold his darkest secrets, flashing every now and then, as the cadences pick up and arms rise and drop like hammers, rhythmically knocking every word into place: the governor has just resurrected Reagan and Lincoln to remind supporters what presidents once used to be: White.'

The Super Committee s Super-Close Ties to Banking and Finance

Lynn Parramore, New Deal 2.0: 'The folks at Maplight have released some disturbing numbers on who has been the most generous to the 12 members of the newly-formed Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction, fondly known as the 'Super Committee.'

Guess how these folks feel about paying their fair share in taxes?'

Poverty. Just Say It

Kathy Mulady, Equal Voice Newspaper: 'Some worry that the conversation about the 'p' word is more about the 'nouveau poor' than about the 37.3 million people who were living in poverty before the recession. Others say it is the crumbling middle class, changing demographics and raised consciousness of people living closer to the edge that have sparked the conversation. Talk about poverty is moving beyond the choir of social service organizations, churches and unions, and grabbing the attention of journalists - and even talk show hosts - who are using their platforms to give voice and visibility to the poor.'

Deficits, Debts and Deepening Crisis

Richard D. Wolff, Truthout: 'Standard & Poor's downgrades US debt, stock markets gyrate around the world, Sarkozy and Merkel perform yet another empty summit, the Chinese and Japanese economies look worrisome. Serious commentators worry about global recession, another global banking collapse, eurozone dissolution and austerity programs that only make matters worse. Nouriel Roubini, famed professor at NYUs Stern School of Business asks this month, 'Is Capitalism Doomed?' His answer: maybe.'
