“A politician who has even run for president must have factual objectivity to do a review, and to carry out a political offensive, he must have a future-oriented ability to present alternatives.”
This is a statement from Kim Tae-nyeon, leader of the Democratic Party, to former legislator Yoo Seung-min, the next president of the people’s power. It was a rebuttal to Representative Yoo’s claim that the day before (28) on his Facebook page, “Due to the Moon Jae-in administration, the poor (basic life recipients + second-class people) increased rapidly.” .
In this article, Representative Yoo specifically stated, “The number of poverty in the Park Geun-hye administration increased by 180,000 during the 4 years and 2 months of the Park Geun-hye administration.” The fact that the number of the poor population will triple in the Moon Jae-in administration, which in the Park Geun-hye administration is evidence that polarization has worsened. ”
However, Kim Won-nae’s argument at the countermeasures meeting at the hospital criticized Yu Jeon’s argument as “a malicious distortion of the facts and a distortion of the statistics.” It was argued that the increase in the number of basic life beneficiaries and second-class people was due to the Moon Jae-in administration’s efforts to expand the social safety net and resolve welfare blind spots, such as abolition phasing out of standards for those who are obliged to support livelihood benefits, and not by increasing the poor due to deepening polarization.
Regarding this, Won Nae Kim said: “As of 2015, the number of poor people who did not supply and demanders who were poor but did not receive support from the government reached 930,000 (after the launch of the Moon Jae-in administration ) “The number of people receiving support is constantly increasing.”
“For example, when the standard for people forced to support housing benefits in the basic life security system was abolished, the number of new basic housing beneficiaries reached 710,000,” he said. “Ignoring the effects of these system improvements, it was reported that the poor simply increased. He criticized Gokhak-Ase, who distorts the facts and misleads the public opinion.
“Yoo Seung-min, politically criticized for increasing the number of beneficiaries by improving the system in the direction I said …”
In particular, Won Nae Kim also criticized that Congressman Yoo Jeon, who proclaimed the “ abolition of the criteria for obligated dependents ” as the first promise of well-being at the time of the 2017 presidential elections, ignored the changes caused. for the political effects of his promise and launched a political offensive.
In this regard, Won Nae Kim said: “A politician under the power of the people claimed that” the poor population in the Moon Jae-in administration has increased rapidly and polarization has intensified. “In the last presidential elections, he pledged to abolish the standards for obligated dependents. He pointed out that there are 1 million people living in poverty who cannot benefit from the Basic Livelihood Security System due to the mandatory standards. ”
He continued: “I very much regret the political behavior of accusing the government that ‘the polarization has intensified’ over the increase in beneficiaries of social assistance due to the improvement of the system in the direction I said.” The person who presents himself as an economic expert It is possible that he does not know the economic indicators that determine inequality. According to a recent statement from the National Statistical Office, the Gini coefficient, the quintile multiplier and the relative poverty rate are improving, he emphasized.
Furthermore, he added, “a seditious politics that only excretes anger at its own political position can receive ‘brilliant’ media attention, but cannot receive public support,” he added. “I hope they look back at what is the right attitude for politics.” .
On the other hand, the compulsory support system is a system that prevents people from receiving benefits if they have immediate family members such as parents and children, even if their assets or income meet the criteria for selecting the beneficiaries of basic life security. However, this has been pointed out as a system that threatens the livelihood of the poor who are only family members on paper and have no exchange or the ability to support each other. Accordingly, the Moon Jae-in administration has made abolishing the standard for obligated dependents a national task, and is following a direction to phase out the standard for obligated support for livelihoods by 2022.
