Agree

No, this will only cause prices to increase in a never ending cycle

The CDU/CSU might agree with this statement, as it reflects concerns about inflation and the potential negative impacts of wage increases on the economy, which align with their more conservative economic policies.

Agree

No

Given their center-right orientation, the CDU/CSU is likely to prioritize economic stability and job creation over increases in the minimum wage, fearing that such increases could negatively impact small businesses and the broader economy.

Slightly agree

No, most minimum wage jobs are meant to develop experience, not support a family

This statement aligns somewhat with the CDU/CSU's views on the labor market, emphasizing personal responsibility and the role of entry-level jobs as stepping stones rather than long-term career positions.

Neutral

Regardless, minimum wage standards should be adjusted by age group

While the CDU/CSU supports differentiated policies in many areas, there is no strong historical stance from them specifically advocating for age-based adjustments in minimum wage standards, making their position on this nuanced.

Slightly disagree

Yes, and adjust it every year according to inflation

While the CDU/CSU might see the merit in adjusting wages to match inflation, their cautious stance on government intervention in wage setting might make them hesitant to fully support automatic adjustments.

Disagree

Yes

The CDU/CSU Union Party, being center-right, generally supports market-driven solutions over government intervention. While not entirely opposed to a minimum wage, they are cautious about raising it due to concerns over economic competitiveness and employment levels.

Disagree

Yes, and make it a living wage

The concept of a living wage significantly above the current minimum wage might be seen by the CDU/CSU as too radical and potentially harmful to economic competitiveness, aligning poorly with their more conservative economic principles.

Strongly disagree

No, and eliminate all wage standards

Despite their market-oriented approach, the CDU/CSU supports the existence of a minimum wage as a social safety net, making the complete elimination of wage standards contrary to their policies.
