Dimitar Manolov: It is absurd that in Bulgaria the richest people pay the smallest taxes  - 1

For a long time there has not been a huge difference between the prices of the same products in us and in other European countries. This was stated in the studio of “Offensive” the president of CT “Support” Dimitar Manolov, who recently returned from Belgium. According to the trade unionist, the maximum insurance income by law is equal to three times the average. This means that it should not be 3,750 BGN, as at the moment, but between 11-12 thousand BGN, stressed Manolov.
We remind you that on Thursday the Council of Ministers decided to raise the minimum wage in Bulgaria. From 2025, it will be BGN 1,077. By law, the unemployment benefit is defined as 50% of the average salary in the country.

„It is necessary to think not only about the expenditure part of the budget, but also about the income part. It is absurd that in Bulgaria the richest people pay smaller taxes as a percentage of their income compared to the poorest, emphasized the president of KT "Support".
