About Salvador Illa's announcement, which came from the government of Pere Aragonès, to provide aid to families with two children who earn 3,700 euros between them, ARA readers have been left scratching their heads. "3,700 euros is not enough? 500 euros, which they will have to pay back at the end of the quarter. So, that's about 3,000. That leaves 1,250. The self-employed, especially if they live outside Barcelona, need a car for work, which will cover many miles on the car loan, 100 on public transport, and gasoline. Toilets, soap for washing and washing, frozen foods, legumes, diapers, meat, canned goods, sausages... that's at least 100 euros. Let's imagine, and it's quite imaginative, that with this budget they can also buy fish or some candy for Saturday. Extras, like changing the car tires, city tax, a repair... have to come from here. Extra payments, in summer and at Christmas if they have a holiday, they don't get any savings capacity for the dry months and can't take vacations. Two children are in diapers and do extracurricular activities, a support teacher.
