The society, which has been put into the wheel of a new polarization through ideological obsessions with the refugee issue, continues to be dragged after artificial agendas. While some opposition parties are trying to gather supporters on the basis of hostility to refugees, it is noteworthy that the government's tactic of replacing the real agendas of the country with artificial agendas with these discussions is remarkable. Citizens, who are under the influence of polarization, are struggling to support their home and family with all kinds of difficulties in the economic bottleneck.
CITIZEN'S LIVESTOCK PROBLEM IS REMAINED IN THE BACKGROUND!
Turkey's biggest problem, the livelihood of the citizens, came under the captivity of artificial agendas. Refugee debates, which are polarized by some politicians, do nothing but make citizens forget their troubles. While the society has been drowning in refugee debates for weeks, nothing has been talked about people who collects bread from the garbage, unable to pay its rent and bills, drowns under waves of hikes, in the face of high inflation. The suffering of the citizens, whose salaries are decreasing day by day, is almost never talked about. The citizen, who wakes up with new price hikes every new day, is left to himself in the whirlpool of insolvency.
THE BLACK TABLE IN THE ECONOMY IS IN THE MIDDLE
The inflation data for April, recently announced by the Turkish Statistical Institute (TURKSTAT), clearly reveal the economic crisis in the country. According to the announced data, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased by 7,25 percent in April compared to the previous month, by 31,71 percent compared to December of the previous year, and by 69,97 percent compared to the same month of the previous year. In the last year, the increase in dozens of different items such as food, soft drinks, housing, logistics, transportation, health services, clothing has further reduced the purchasing power of the citizens. While fruits, vegetables and bakery products, which are the most basic needs of the citizens, saw the biggest hikes in recent years, the hikes in electricity, water and natural gas bills increased the livelihood problem of the citizens.
WHEN THE ELECTION IS APPROACHING, POLITICS HAS BEEN POLARIZED AGAIN
The emergence of one or more polarization issues in the every pre-election political arena is a fact known to everyone in Turkey. A new polarization issue before the upcoming 2023 elections was refugees. The refugee debate, which has been persistently provoked by some politicians, continues to spread to large sections of society. The provocative moves of the politicians leading the refugee tension are interpreted as investments in the 2023 elections.
