The reason they are discussing this is because they are trying to find an excuse why they lost a few billion euros this term.

Also, never forget, the current ruling government is trying to cause early elections, one year earlier than normal because they fear they will lose more percentage points than they have ALREADY lost in the next 300 days so they need elections fast if they want any chance to still win.
The only way to cause an early election in germany is to cause problems inside the ruling parties to make them nolonger agree together. So stuff you hear recently from germany is to be taken with much caution.
