Eric Osh. Can afford to pour fuel!

The government cannot afford to provide all citizens with the same standard of living as before the Russian invasion of Ukraine by infinitely increasing support programs, so citizens should live more modestly – this is what Economic experts expressed in the “Why” program of “Delphi TV” last week. Speaking of the possibility for the government to reduce excise duties on fuels, Normunds Malnačs, secretary of the Fiscal Discipline Council, explained in the program “Delphi TV” why this council was categorically opposed: “First of all because of the tax impact. a penny the price of fuel would cost the state budget 10 million euros [..], fuel prices almost doubled during the year, but consumption did not decrease. It doesn’t matter how much they show us complaining stories that people can’t pour gasoline, but in general, fuel is consumed mainly by wealthy people. “
