Musikrat fordert befristetes Grundeinkommen
Der Deutsche Musikrat (DMR) fordert ein auf sechs Monate befristetes Grundeinkommen in Höhe von 1.000 Euro für alle freiberuflichen Kreativschaffenden. Bei einem laut Künstlersozialkasse durchschnittlichen Bruttojahreseinkommen von 13.000 Euro hätten Betroffene keinen Spielraum für Rücklagen, erklärte Generalsekretär Christian Höppner am Montag. Der Musikrat begrüße die Erklärung von Kulturstaatsministerin Monika Grütters (CDU), die Kultur- und Kreativwirtschaft angesichts der Coronakrise massiv zu unterstützen. Entscheidend sein, “dass jetzt rasch und ohne bürokratischen Aufwand geholfen werden kann.”
Music Council demands temporary basic income
The German Music Council (DMR) is calling for a basic income of 1,000 euros, limited to six months, for all freelance creative workers. With an average annual gross income of 13,000 euros according to the artists’ social security fund, those affected would have no room for savings, Secretary-General Christian Höppner explained on Monday. The Music Council welcomed the statement by Minister of State for Culture Monika Grütters (CDU) to massively support the cultural and creative industries in view of the Corona crisis. The decisive factor is “that help can now be provided quickly and without bureaucratic burdens”.
