Neither the public nor ordinary citizens, nor even the so-called \u201cintellectual opposition,\u201d has asked the crucial question: why was a populist handout set at exactly 1,000 hryvnias? Not 800, not 2,000, but precisely 1,000.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It would also be somewhat understandable to provide those in need (not ALL!) with support in the amount of the subsistence minimum for persons who have lost their ability to work (2,361 UAH). It is also very little, but at least it is clear why so much.<\/p>\n

You can’t determine the amount yourself! This isn’t money from the pockets of those in power! This isn’t business money! This is not\u2014at least, I hope\u2014an election stunt!<\/p>\n

Where do these calculations come from that approximately 5% of the average salary will significantly help a Ukrainian?<\/p>\n

I take the liberty of noting that this figure, as they say, was taken from the ceiling. This is precisely the essence of those who made the decision. Why even calculate, explain? They are “not suckers” to “bother” with this. As the youth say, “people hide!”<\/p>\n\t\t
