The Chairman of "Vazrazhdane" met with residents of Varna worried about the upcoming budget. All of them are owners of small and medium-sized businesses, who are extremely worried about a series of changes included in the budget.
SUPTO, dividend tax, and the increase in social security contributions were commented on. Kostadinov introduced everyone to the proposals of “Vazrazhdane” in the budget and was categorical that the political organization will fight against this budget not only with proposals and during the debates in parliament, but also with protests.
"The protests must continue.", Kostadinov was categorical. He also said that not only "the budget exploded" before it was adopted, but also the government is infinitely harmful. And about the government he was categorical:
"This is a large corrupt organism that sucks our country like a cancerous growth. That is why we are fighting for it to resign,", said Kostadinov.
The constantly increasing state debt, which burdens every Bulgarian citizen to pay it off, now and in future generations, was also discussed. Regarding the hopes of entrepreneurs, provoked by Borisov's statement that he would withdraw the budget, Kostadinov said:
"Borisov is a political pensioner whom no one considers alive. Yes, he said that he would withdraw the budget, but he didn't do it because he doesn't make decisions on his own. Peevski decides and it is he who forbids Borisov to withdraw the budget.", said Kostadinov at an open meeting with entrepreneurs in Varna.
He added that everything the GERB leader says should not be taken into account, because it is a desperate attempt to show that he is still a factor and something depends on him.
The entrepreneurs also shared their concerns that the state has turned into a repressive apparatus and that institutions are often used as a bat, and the administrative burden is simply crushing:
"Everything is fine with me and I still pray that no one comes in for an inspection, if they come in - they will still find something. Apparently, that is how they are instructed - to crush small and medium-sized businesses.", shared with the chairman of “Vazrazhdane” an entrepreneur from Varna.
