In 1932, media mogul and German nationalist Alfred Hugenberg coined the phrase: "Social means creating jobs". The lobby group INSM, founded in 2000, brought the slogan back into German politics in connection with the Agenda 2010 policy. But already at the end of the 1990s, the old bogeys of the "work-shy" and "asocial" were conspicuously repeated on private television. Did afternoon talk shows create the Agenda 2010 policy?
