German Taxpayers Bled Dry: Mass Migration Cost \u20ac40 Billion In 2025<\/span><\/p>\n

Migrants cost German taxpayers \u2014 just at the federal level \u2014 \u20ac24.8 billion in 2025, according to new data in the \u201crefugee costs report\u201d from the German Federal Ministry of Finance. However, the true sum is much higher.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The \u20ac24.8 billion is strictly the\u00a0federal\u00a0bill. The actual, combined national cost of migration for Germany is that \u20ac24.8 billion\u00a0plus<\/em>\u00a0the massive, separate billions that the individual states and municipalities had to pull from their own local tax revenues to cover their own deficits brought on by mass immigration.<\/p>\n

Welt notes that the total figure is indeed much higher, since it does not include states and local communes, but Welt does not provide this combined data.<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, previous years indicate that this number is at least \u20ac15 to \u20ac20 billion. That means any total figure is likely well over \u20ac40 billion, but as in previous years, it\u00a0may actually go as high as \u20ac50 billion<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The total costs cover several areas, including the federal government\u2019s contribution to the refugee and integration costs of states and municipalities.<\/strong> One controversial issue is exactly how much money the federal government is transferring to the states and municipalities, which they argue is not enough to cover all their costs.<\/p>\n

Essentially, the federal government only pays out a flat rate per initial asylum application, amounting to \u20ac7,500 from the federal government, allocated via a modification in the VAT distribution. This advance payment reached \u20ac1.25 billion for 2025. Additionally, the report assumes that the federal government holds a claim for repayment from the states totaling \u20ac250 million for 2025.<\/p>\n

However, this only covers a fraction of the cost. The states indicate that the total costs in the area of flight and migration are significantly higher than the VAT resources available to them on the basis of the flat rate.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of course, all of these expenses only cover specific areas like housing, direct social benefits, and integration courses. The true cost is still far higher than \u20ac40 billion to \u20ac50 billion.<\/p>\n

The costs, for instance, do not cover expenses associated with the substantial foreign prison population. They also do not cover the need for the vastly increased police forces and counter-terrorism efforts. There are also \u201cgray areas\u201d that lead to other hidden taxes on Germans brought on by mass immigration. For instance, mass immigration has led to vastly higher housing prices, more road traffic, crowded hospitals, and longer wait times for medical treatments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Germans are even paying higher health insurance premiums now due to mass immigration.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The head of the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds (GKV-Spitzenverband) has repeatedly criticized the federal government for creating a massive multi-billion-euro deficit that forces them to raise premiums, with the core of the complaint revolving around\u00a0\u201cnon-insurance benefits.\u201d\u00a0These are social welfare benefits mandated by the government that are paid out to people who have not paid regular insurance contributions\u00a0into<\/em>\u00a0the system. This includes long-term unemployed citizens and refugees.<\/p>\n

When asylum seekers first arrive in Germany, they are not members of the statutory health insurance system.<\/strong>\u00a0Under the Asylum Seekers Benefits Act, their healthcare costs are covered, with local municipalities and state social offices paying their bills.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The financial friction begins once a migrant\u2019s asylum application is approved, or if they have been in the country for 36 months without a final decision. At this point, they transition into the standard welfare system, known as citizen\u2019s money.<\/p>\n

Once on welfare, they are fully integrated into the statutory health insurance system.<\/strong> This is where the\u00a0GKV-Spitzenverband\u00a0argues the math breaks down, with the government only paying \u20ac108 per person per month for welfare recipients,\u00a0the majority of which are migrants and those with a migration background<\/a>, when the care actually costs between \u20ac300 and \u20ac350 a month.<\/p>\n

This has resulted in a multi-billion euro deficit, which the insurance companies say now needs to be passed on to Germans actually paying for their health insurance.<\/p>\n

In short, Germans are being squeezed from all sides due to mass immigration,<\/strong> and despite claims that foreigners would pay the pensions of Germany\u2019s aging population, this is clearly unrealistic. Instead, Germany\u2019s elderly may now be expected to work even longer, with a strong movement in the government to raise the retirement age to 73.<\/p>\n
