Increasing Working Days Reduces Our Salaries: Nahapetyan

Member of the Executive Body of the Citizen’s Decision party, Mikael Nahapetyan, wrote on his Facebook page:

“Today, the government made yet another decision that reduces our salaries. The increase in working days effectively means that we must do more work for the same pay. If we add to this the widespread inflation, the rising transportation costs to get to work, the increased payments to the soldiers' insurance fund, and the upcoming mandatory health insurance payments, we will find ourselves at a threshold where working will have no meaning.

They say that an additional $170 million in benefits will be created. But excuse me, how will that benefit be distributed? 70% to the entrepreneurs and 30% for the comfort of officials? Why on earth are we going to work? Why are you improving the economic situation of the groom on the bride's days off?”
