Everyone who can work must be productive in business life. He should not survive on social aid. Everyone should earn money by producing in business life according to their skills and educationSocial assistance should be given to those who are truly unable to work and need it. As these aids and the base expand, people move away from being productive. If we can't find a solution to this together, investments will be made for more automation in the industry or foreign labor will be started to be employed inevitably. As Turkish industrialists, we want our own people to work in our facilities and consume what they earn with their own hard work. If we want to beat inflation, if we want to solve problems in the economy, we need more industrial facilities, more production and more workforce, there is no other way.” He should not survive on social aid. Everyone should earn money by producing in business life according to their skills and education. Social assistance should be given to those who are truly unable to work and need it.
