Mia excludes the poor to raise cash – Corriere.it

Beppe Grillo attacks the government for the decision to abolish income and transform it into another tool, Mia. “Mine is the facsimile of the Citizenship Income but clearly worsened. Despite the name, there is nothing inclusive about it; in fact, the lowering of the ISEE threshold will lead to a cut of 1/3 of the current core earners (about 350,000) in order to save 3 billion euros a year. In fact, cash is raised on the poor. The RDC fund is reduced from the current 8 billion to 5 billion. This is why we should talk about an active exclusion measure rather than an active inclusion measure”, writes the M5S guarantor on the blog.

“ This also contradicts the addresses of the recent proposed recommendation of the European Commission, which invited the Member States to strengthen the guaranteed minimum income schemes should be called MEA Active Exclusion Measure, and it will be possible to request it from September. In fact, the MEA does everything to exclude the poor from the benefit, for example poor pensioners (who today receive the citizen’s pension), the poor of the north, who are cut off from the new thresholds, childless households, singles “, he continues Cricket. The showman says that the new measure creates a distinction between the poor in series A, poor in series B and series C. “The value of the ISEE must not exceed 7,200 euros (compared to the 9,360 euros required for the Rdc) kill about 350,000 poor series D nuclei, which have a slightly higher Isee, and save money on the skin of the penultimate”, writes Grillo.

“The Alliance Against Poverty he reiterated the need not to divert resources from the fight against poverty in order to respond, with the necessary social inclusion policies, to the growing population in economic difficulty’. The opposite of what the new Active Exclusion Measure does”, argues Grillo, who comments on the sidelines of the show in Milan, in a video published by The print: Elly Schlein? That’s great! They will have to say all our ideas to move forward. All our ideas must go on with other names. They do so.
