AMMAN — Representative Salem
Al-Omari criticized the government for failing to include social security debts
in the 2023
General Budget, stating that the public sector “should stop
borrowing from social security, as this puts social security funds at risk”,
Jo24 reported.

The state budget, Omari said, is similar to
previous years. “Since 1980, the same numbers, deficits, and debts have been
repeated,” he commented.
The MP cautioned the government against
relying on borrowing, noting that accumulating debts raise the costs of
installments and thus increase the budget deficit.
Comments made by the
government about empathizing with citizens “are no more than pompous, worthless slogans”, he
said.
If the government experiences such empathy,
he questioned, where are the allocations it has set aside to eradicate poverty
and unemployment and raise the salaries of employees and retirees?
