Poor people should eat less. At the same time, Sweden manages 500 people not basic expenses and certainly not any greedflation. 2022 20% of households lacked a buffer for unforeseen expenses. But the right's solution to inflation is that low-income earners should reduce their consumption of electricity, heat and food. Therefore, many Swedes now have to lower the temperature at home, queue to get cheap food and look for deposits in garbage cans.
The politicians urge people to lower their standard of living, instead of coming up with the real solution which would be for the state to combine progressive cat with sufficient deficits to speed up the production and the redistribution again. Because the austerity policy of the right leads to an increasingly difficult fight against the bills. Although the right-wing parties promised dearly and sacredly to solve the situation, they broke this promise after the election. The government's autumn budget meant cuts of SEK 130 billion until 2025 in welfare. The right says the poor should eat less. It will worsen unemployment. When low-income earners (often unemployed and on sick leave) cannot afford to consume, purchasing power decreases. This is the basis for employment.
Even parts of the left and S have been too weak to demand a push to speed up wage formation, redistribution and taxes as well as deficits.
Join a party or dare talk politics with those you meet in everyday life. What we dare to disobey makes a difference.
