Iran: 20% reduction in food basket

State-run in Iran acknowledge economic mismanagement by the mullahs’ regime has led to Iranians being able to consume 20 percent less food and liquids.
In 2010, each Iranian household on average consumed an annual amount of 2,318 kilograms of food and liquids. In the current year, the average annual consumption stands at 1874 kg, a decrease of 19.15%, according to the state-run Etemad daily.
The difference in consumption rates in the two periods is considerably higher when considering only basic food and beverage.
Iranian households on average consumed 1076 kg of basic food and beverage in 2010 in comparison to 846 kg in the current year, a net decrease of 21.37%, the report said.
The report was published on Wednesday by other state-run media including the Khorasan daily and the Alef and Tabnak websites.
On September 20, Eghtesadnews.com, a state-run website published an advertisement for selling body organs that had been posted in Pasteur Square in Tehran. This square is in the vicinity of the headquarters of Iranian regime’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei and the office of the regime’s President Hassan Rouhani .
This advertisement reads: “E

ye cornea, bone marrow, liver blood type B+ for immediate sale.”
This website wrote that many government officials probably pass this advertisement for selling body organs every day on their way to work.
Such advertisements are posted on the walls by the very poor who have no money to buy food or receive medical treatment.
There is rampant poverty in oil-rich Iran which ranks eighth in the world for natural resources and mines. The ruling mullahs’ regime spends most of country’s resources on its nuclear bomb project, domestic suppression, and meddling and terrorism in the Middle East.
Reports from Tehran indicate that these advertisements may readily be seen in other streets of the capital.

Poverty skyrocketing in Iran
