back then Iran population was 30 million , now day with Afghan immigrants , its 90 millions ...People like you live in a fairy tale land. Look at what rial was worth during the war and look at what it is is worth today. Look at a gasoline and natural gas consumption in Iran during the war and look at it today. List goes on and on. Don’t compare two very different time periods and try to make a direct correlation.
On one hand you decry JCPOA and claim Iran doesn’t need it then cry when Iran is forced to cut subsidies.
Iran’s foreign exchange reserves are frozen and limited oil sales means even less Petrodollars and Petroeuros are flowing into Iran’s coffers.....thus you have to cut subsidies. And no 1MBPD is not enough money to cover all of Iran’s various subsidies (oil, electricity, foods, medicines, government workers salaries, various government programs and projects).
So if you are anti-JCPOA you have to realize these subsidies will need to go as well. And they should go, they drain the governments coffers. It’s a miracle they lasted this long. Look at what happened in to Hugo Chavez’s Socialist Venezuela after government coffers got depleted beyond repair due to falling oil
Revenues/corruption while maintaining a high socialist subsidized society.
ISI decided to not develop public transformation to be able to sell old useless cars to Iranians and they somehow force people to buy cars ( by not developing public transformation ) ,
The cars most of Iranians are using are old gas thirsty machine with technology of 1990s ( and much lesser build quality of original design ) ...
so , you can't blame people for the sins of ISI ...
and why people like you comparing Iran energy consumption with small cold european country with high availiblity of public transformation ...
مصرف انرژی توی ایران رو با یک کشور گرم و خشک نفت خیز مقایسه کنید ، لطفا نسبت جمعیتی رو هم در نظر بگیرید ... ما گوشمون از این مقایسه های مغرضانه پر هست .
