Free Yourself and Us from the Miserable Psychology of a Poor Country

Facebook user Arpi Papoyan writes: “I thought discussing politics on Facebook was the last thing I would do, but I am overwhelmed by a mix of patience, astonishment, and outrage:

I want to understand whether it is from the chair that you start to adopt a policy of collecting money as soon as you come to power, or have you completely lost the desire to work? Setting up workplaces, developing export enhancement programs, expanding strategic production sectors, creating investment projects, lowering taxes, and even relieving some taxes under tight conditions, ending the policy of overwhelming fines – there are thousands of tasks that the government could engage in if it doesn't even know what to do. But burdening the populace with property taxes, attempting to 'bring back money' from various sources, and collecting taxes is a poor method to show the lazy nature of the government. Free yourself and us finally from the miserable psychology of a poor country.”
