On Monday, Iran\u2019s state-run media admitted to Iranian workers harsh living<\/a> conditions and the plight of other walks of life. The regime\u2019s state-run media also demonstrates fear of people\u2019s reaction to ongoing hardships, originated from the mullahs\u2019 wrong policies.<\/p>\n

\u201cBased on the statistical trends of declining incomes and the growth of poverty, some estimates suggest that more than one-third of the country\u2019s population today is below the poverty line,\u201d wrote the state-run Kar-o Kargar daily on Monday, adding that \u201calmost the entire large population of workers lives below the absolute poverty line.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Kar-o Kargar, \u201clow or sometimes negative economic growth in the last 15 years, the decrease of foreign investment under sanctions in the last ten years, and the coronavirus outbreak since last year, coupled with government\u2019s unbalanced economy and its chaotic policies, which only create problems, have created a complex system of social and economic problems.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a result, the inflation rate, real unemployment, inequality<\/a> and social gap, the population under the poverty line are rising; and people\u2019s salaries and purchasing power are decreasing. Thus, people\u2019s tables shrink daily,\u201d Kar-o Kargar\u2019s article adds.<\/p>\n

\u201cWorkers\u2019 livelihood is on the verge of annihilation under the pressure of the inflation which devours their salaries and the expenses which exceed their earnings,\u201d Kar-o Kargar concludes. While Iranian workers and other walks of life grapple with poverty, regime officials continue proposing so-called \u201cplans\u201d to plunder Iranians more.<\/p>\n

A so-called plan of \u201cEmpowering Social Security Organization,\u201d is now circulating in the regime\u2019s parliament. While pensioners and retirees of Iran\u2019s Social Security Organization stage nationwide rally demanding higher pensions adjusted to the inflation rate and regime\u2019s wrong policies, based on this plan, the regime intends to further plunder them.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no doubt that the Social Security Organization is in a state of \u201ccrisis\u201d today. According to some experts, the country\u2019s super-insurer is on the verge of a serious crisis. Others believe that it has long passed the crisis threshold and today is really at the bottom of a serious crisis,\u201d wrote the semi-official ILNA news agency on Monday.<\/p>\n
