4. What should the government do to reduce poverty in Ukraine?
(Several
answers
are
available)
Poverty
in
Ukraine
is
created
by
poli0cians
themselves.
They
are
ge`ng
million-‐hryvnya
wages
monthly!
Poli0cians
should
not
be
buying
luxurious
cars
just
for
fun
and
spend
money
on
wine,
beer,
etc
Some
cars,
yachts,
aircrab
or
villas
should
be
confiscated
from
poli0cians
Poli0cians
should
step
down,
get
smarter,
slimmer
and
live
in
a
small
village
It
is
necessary
to
overcome
the
crisis
and,
eventually,
poverty
in
Ukraine
To
stop
prin0ng
new
money
and
immediately
take
care
of
the
country's
economics
and
poli0cs!
Poli0cians
have
to
change
the
way
they
think,
get
clever,
just,
honest
and
start
taking
responsibility
for
their
words
It
is
necessary
to
root
out
corrup0on,
overcome
the
crisis
and
stop
stealing.
It
is
necessary
to
start
saving
and
stop
spending
money
on
useless
things
Take
away
from
the
rich
and
give
to
the
poor,
but
take
away
only
half,
so
that
they
(the
rich)
do
not
become
poor,
too
