Positions
watch TV
With his book “Die Nimmersatten” on the occasion of the changeover of broadcasting financing for ( ARD ) and ( ZDF ), he is considered a critic of the budget fee that has been in force since 2013. In order to reduce costs for citizens and companies, he calls for a streamlining of public service broadcasting, more transparency in finances and a de-politicization of the supervisory bodies.
Austria
In his book "Austria - The Torn Republic", Siebenhaar pleads for a comprehensive modernization of the Alpine republic through extensive debureaucratisation, deep reforms in economic, labor and pension policy and an economization of political action. He criticizes the fact that uninhibited populism has poisoned the political and objective atmosphere.
