The Prime Minister presented Thursday the details of the recovery plan, estimated at 100 billion euros, decided by the government.

In this budget, companies are carving out the lion's share: 35 billion euros are mobilized to boost their competitiveness. 

ANALYSIS

Businesses take the lion's share.

The recovery plan detailed Thursday by the Prime Minister, estimated at 100 billion euros, is organized around three major axes: ecological transition, social and territorial cohesion, and business competitiveness.

35 billion euros are mobilized for the latter, including 20 billion to lower their production taxes.

The companies are in fact the big winners of "France relaunch", a choice completely assumed by the executive which preferred to bet on a plan based on the supply and not on the demand.

Europe 1 explains the nuance to you.

Stimulating demand would have meant lowering taxes and increasing aid to households.

A minister recognizes it with Europe 1, it would have been easier to sell but according to him, useless.

According to the Ministry of the Economy, it is because they were based on demand and not on supply that all the stimulus plans launched in recent years have failed.

The government is banking on a "supply shock"

To "prepare France for 2030", as Jean Castex says, the government therefore prefers to bet on a "supply shock".

It is for this purpose that it sharply cuts corporate taxes.

Production taxes represent, for example, a fifth of the 100 billion euros of the recovery plan.

Because for Matignon, the only policy that works is one that creates jobs.

Companies will thus be entitled to a bonus for hiring a young person.

Note that today, an apprentice costs almost nothing to his employer.

The government expects 160,000 job creations in 2021, 240,000 in 2022, with a very ambitious objective: to drop below 10% of unemployed at the beginning of 2022.
