Presidential counselor Radu Burnete points out that the nearly 5 million employees in the private sector can no longer support, through taxes and taxes, the entire budget device, which has reached over 1.3 million employees. Burnete warns that only 64% of Romanians working, while the regional average is 75-76%, which amplifies the pressure on active taxpayers.

“People working in the private sector, the 4.5-5 million, must, through their taxes and taxes, support this budget device. If their number is very small compared to the region, then we are not so much below the European Union average.” said Burnete on Prima TV, according to News.ro.
“Romania has a problem, because only 64% of Romanians work – the average in the region is 75-76%”, he said.
Radu Burnete explained that in relation to the population, Romania seems to have few budgets, but things change radically when the number of active employees is made. With only 64% of persons capable of work in the field of work, Romania has well below the European average and below the region.
“Further, we have a lot of tax evasion and gray economy. If we have so much tax evasion and so much gray economy, the pressure on these 5 million employees in private to keep this budget device is even higher. Yes, if I put all these things together, at this time we have a larger public device than it can support the environment,” the presidential counselor added.
Burnete said that both President Nicușor Dan and Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan will have the reduction of tax evasion and gray economy. “We steal our cap alone and are not honest. I mean, only some of us always pay, others always avoid this,” he pointed out.
In addition, Burnete spoke about the need for a state structure reform, where there are clear imbalances: “There are places, you see them, I see the citizens, where the device is clear, that it takes a long time to get an authorization. There are other places where it is oversized. I heard the prime minister, gave this example and public, if you look at the county councils, some have a hundred and there are four hundred and there are no more.
