“There are now only four out of ten unemployed people who receive unemployment benefits, whereas it was seven out of ten unemployed people 15 years ago. (…) The others receive the RSA: 630 euros when you are alone”. As for the minimum wage, she recalls that it was not increased by the executive but only “been adjusted for inflation”. “You are affecting the most vulnerable while refusing to touch the wealth of the ultra-rich”accuses the LFI MP.
Patrick Vignal acknowledges having “requested efforts from the unemployed“, but also said he would like to ask the “0.01% of the very, very rich”.
