MP Jorida Tabaku has reacted to the government's fiscal policy, describing it as unfair and unequal.

According to her, the current economic system weighs heavily on the majority of citizens, especially the middle class, while a minority benefits from fiscal relief.

She adds that the current fiscal policy overtaxes labor and production, reduces real household incomes, and worsens the purchasing power of citizens.

Tabaku also links this model to corruption, market monopolization, and the orientation of public funds towards projects that do not bring added value to the economy.

Tabaku ends with a call for political change, demanding the construction of a government that puts the interests of citizens at the center.

"The socialists are defending at all costs and in any form the dishonest system they have built and that keeps them in power. Whenever it comes to choosing between the citizens and the system, they choose the latter."

They have built a system that overtaxes the majority of working Albanians, especially the middle class. The harder you work, the more you are taxed. This is the result of a dishonest and corrupt system that overtaxes the backbone of the country, the middle class, while passing laws tailored to the minority.

This reality has also deformed the economy of our country, to the point that today the greatest tax burden is on the sweat of the citizens' hands, who take less and less money home, because the state taxes them more. Those who work and create added value in the economy are overtaxed, while a minority that only benefits and manages Albanian taxes is exempt from taxes by custom laws.

Thus, the middle class bears the heavy burden of an economy and pays the corrupt bills of corrupt projects.

A dishonest system. A corrupt system. A failed system. The system that invests millions of euros of tenders and concessions in inefficient projects and without any added value to the economy. Citizens pay more taxes, receive less income, while government projects and PPPs are inefficient and corrupt.

If today we are still the poorest country in the region, with the lowest purchasing power in the region, it is because we have set up this wrong and dangerous economic model. A model that promotes corruption and monopolies and which is the reason why today 95% of Albanians pay more: more taxes, higher prices and less income.

"To change this system, to drain the swamp of this system, we need to change this majority. We need to stop having this minority government," Tabaku emphasizes./ CNA
