– Germany needs to get its finances in order and return to a balanced budget by 2022, Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Thursday, adding this would require discipline after Europe’s biggest economy took on record new borrowing during the eurozone crisis. Speaking at an industry event, conservative Merkel also rejected proposals from her Social Democrat labor minister to give people the right to work from home, saying the plans would not be passed in their current form in this legislative period, Reuters reports.
