How to steal 10,000 drams? Nikol Pashinyan deceives pensioners

Nikol Pashinyan decided for the pensioners, which is more beneficial for them: pension increase or health insurance? Decided that health insurance is more preferable than increasing pensions. And maybe questions for retirees? Definitely, at least 9 out of 10 would prefer a direct increase in pensions. But since the direct increase of pensions is not beneficial to the government, they would have to "cut their mouths" and give it to the pensioners, Nikol Pashinyan decided instead of the pensioners that insurance is more appropriate. He says that if we increase the pension by 10 thousand drams, the pensioner will not solve his health problem. "If we increase a person's pension by 10,000 drams a month, will he be able to solve his health problems more or less properly? No, he won't be able to. That's why we said: let's not increase the pension, but introduce a healthcare system. With that, we put the increased pension of pensioners over the age of 65, without asking them, but they will receive services that cost several times more, which they, of course, will need. We will not cover the incomplete costs of all medicines, but in this way we will return to the pensioners an amount that is significantly more than the 10-11 thousand drams that we take from their potentially increasing pension and put on their health system," Nikol Pashinyan tries to justify not increasing the pension of pensioners by investing in insurance. It seems that everything is true, but it is still deceiving. The contribution of insurance has no direct relation to the non-increase of pensions. Even without the introduction of health insurance, pensioners, or at least most of them, had the privilege of using free medical care. Another thing that he was not always able to use. But it is not the case that he will be able to use it from now on, and many things will change in the pensioner's life when he solves his health problems after the insurance. Perhaps it will be even more difficult to use free medical care, because the authorities have decided that many medical services will be excluded from the provided insurance package, and insured citizens, including pensioners, will have to pay for them. Sometimes they have to pay even for medical services included in the insurance. Now, which is more beneficial for pensioners: insurance or pension increase? To be insured and receive the medical services they received before, or the 10,000 AMD increase in pensions? One way or another, the innumerable difficulties and hardships that pensioners used to go through while using the state pension will not disappear even with the introduction of insurance and will continue to haunt them.
