Samson Grigoryan Suggests Raising Taxes by 200% Amid Outrage

Leader of the 'Suspension' civic movement and businessman, Samson Grigoryan, expressed his frustration on his Facebook page: 'Who’s next, gentlemen? We already have two projects on the horizon for tax increases, leaving the waste collection fees at 0.8% for businesses, and with the Central Bank's cashless project proposing 1.8-3.8%. We are waiting for your national, shadow-disrupting, business-destroying, and epoch-making new proposals.

I suggest we raise taxes by a full 200%, increase officials' salaries by 500%, and adjust pensions and teachers' salaries only to match the projected inflation. Let’s not forget to present all of this as a significant achievement,' Grigoryan wrote.
