Also, the dan- ger of bankruptcy of GM and Ford was put on the table, since both firms—Opel in Bochum and Ford in Cologne—employ thousands of German workers, and a collapse of both firms in the United States would be a tsunami for Germany, as well! Then, in April, in the context of the intensifying financial instability around GM and Ford and the other speculative debt bubbles, SPD Chairman Mu¨ntefering finally broke the neo- liberal, monetarist dominance in Germany: He attacked the international hedge funds and mega-speculators as “locusts,” which destroy the productive capacities of nations, and he identified some of these funds by name, which obviously drew a huge outcry from the relevant people. He also put the debate on a principled level, as we had been demanding all along, by referring to the German Constitution, which says that “prop- erty obliges”—that is, whoever has property, is also obliged to serve the common good with it.
