Dengan cukup memangkas MBG Rp36-40 triliun saja, pemerintah sebenarnya tidak perlu menaikkan BBM.
Tapi pemerintah lebih memilih menaikkan Pertamax Rp3.950 dan Pertamax Green Rp4.100 per liter, yang efek dominonya jauh lebih luas ke seluruh masyarakat.
Padahal keduanya sama-sama bisa hemat Rp36,3 triliun di APBN.
Naik BBM = menekan daya beli kelas menengah, memicu kenaikan harga barang, memicu inflasi.
Pangkas MBG = memengaruhi kelompok rente, mengurangi dana bancakan.
Ada cara yang jauh lebih ringan buat hemat, tapi kenapa malah pilih yang membebani rakyat?
Why?
