The point the economy has reached… Neither sausage nor kashar: Here is ‘plain toast’!

While the effects of economic hardship on society become more apparent every day, the “plain toast” that a business added to its menu became a trending topic on social media.

This toast does not contain any ingredients such as kashar or sausage, and is prepared by simply spreading tomato paste on the bread and adding spices on top.

Minister of Economy Mehmet Şimşek said that the citizens are not carrying the burden!

During the question and answer session, Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek said, "The opposition, from its own perspective, says that the citizens bear the burden, but the reality is not like that." The response to the statement came from CHP Deputy Chairman Yalçın Karatepe.

Citizens bear the burden

Karatepe, "We repeat Şimşek’s statements, the citizen bears the burden" He used the following expressions:

"Mehmet Simsek, "The opposition is making statements from its own perspective, saying that the citizens are carrying the burden, but the facts are not like that." he said.

We repeat: yes, the citizen bears the burden. Paid workers are crushed by inflation, retirees cannot make ends meet, farmers leave their crops on the field because they are losing money, SMEs are in a difficult situation, unemployment is increasing, citizens who are dragged into debt are forced to pay the highest interest rates…

What about Mr. Şimşek? "citizen" There is a problem with the definition or the Minister is not familiar with the data."

There is a bigger problem here, lack of seriousness.

Prof. Dr. Bilge Yılmaz also made serious criticisms of the announced program. Yılmaz, "There is no program, no road map, and no seriousness!" He drew attention to the lack of seriousness in the program.
