Comment on the mask affair: rascals and cashes – Bavaria

The young Zurich entrepreneurs Jascha Rudolphi and Luca Steffen, who at the beginning of the corona pandemic earned 100, maybe even 200 million euros from trading protective masks in Germany alone, simply want to have had the right nose. The owners of the trading company Emix want to have recognized in time that masks are needed.

Doing flourishing business with this scarce resource was perfectly fine from the Emix operator’s point of view. Seen in this way, the two young entrepreneurs would be model boys of the market economy. “Thanks to us, millions of doctors, nurses, police officers and firefighters have been protected,” Rudolphi told the local press.

What a chutzpah. Documents from the health ministries in Bavaria and North Rhine-Westphalia show that the two of them issued ultimatums about the politician daughter Andrea Tandler: immediate order at outrageously high prices plus 50 percent prepayment. Rudolphi, Steffen and Tandler, who received many millions of euros in commissions, used the emergency to make cash.

The trio has shamelessly enriched itself, assisted by the Tandler friend and CSU politician Monika Hohlmeier. The daughter of Franz Josef Strauss only wants to have contacts up to the Federal Minister of Health Jens Spahn and otherwise knew nothing and certainly not received any money for it.

Which begs the question: What does MEP Hohlmeier do as soon as old family friends knock on the door? What happened there is neither Christian nor social, nor does it have anything to do with the social market economy. That is the worst capitalism and a slap in the face of all those who do service in hospitals, doctor’s offices or nursing homes and soon can no longer because the pandemic demands so much from them. It is high time to find out what happened to all the money that the German state paid for the Emix masks.
