The Sunday newspaper dedicated two of its extremely valuable pages to an extensive interview with the socialite Jacqueline Badran. Not really worth mentioning, except for the headline that high petrol prices and inflation are a joke. Badran thus confirms once again that she has no idea about the economy and the real concerns of the population, otherwise she wouldn't let such nonsense out of her ivory tower.
High gasoline prices and inflation are definitely important, because they lead, for example, to raw materials and semi-finished products for the local economy becoming more expensive, from a two-man operation to a multi-billion corporation, if you can still get them at all. The consequences should be clear: Higher end consumer prices, delivery delays, production downtimes, etc. The victims are precisely the people that Badran always pretends to protect - but with this announcement it shows its real face. The rabble made them big. The rabble should now endure them too!
