China and Russia sanctioned us cause they prefer a backwarded and dependent Iran who keeps buying from them.
their position hasn't changed, China still hasn't payed it's debt, this week they blocked more of our money, while in recent months they even have refused to pay for our petrochemical exports.
This is the crazy rate of imports which is hurting us, not a little money which is given to poor people, this money is nothing in the scale of our economy.
but you may have forgotten that Rouhani had four years to exclude the rich families but he didn't.
leader didn't ban him, advised him to not participate, the reason was because Ahmadinejad couldn't unite the conservatives, I was against his participate either. Ahmadinejad had many mistakes but first of all, foreign diplomacy was the least one and secondly comparing to him, Rouhani is a disaster.
ONLY in your little bubble buddy! Rohani is running the country with $50 oil prices! While Ahmadi couldn't run the country with even $100 oil prices! And while Oil prices were at it's peak he still managed to destroy the countries economy, currency, diplomatic relations,....!
When it comes to governing giving handouts breaking the economy is easy! It's fixing the economy and removing the peoples dependence on those handouts that's the hard part!
And how many rich people do you think Iran has? Even if you exclude the top 2% (1.6 Million people) that only fixes 2% of the problem so that's not the problem! And by the most part those people give more to charities on a yearly bases than they get in Yaraneh if they get any!
Little money given to the pour! See this is why some people should never be President!

Lets say your military budget is $30 Billion USD
Which is better to have?
1. 10 Million strong Military manpower
2. 2 Million Strong Military manpower
3. 1 Million(or less) Strong Military manpower
Fact is if you were to pay each solder an average of $400 per month (Paycheck, Clothing & Benefits) you wouldn't even be able to afford option 1 because the salaries alone will be greater than you entire budget at $48Billion USD
and option 2 takes 1/3 of your budget just for salaries which makes providing simple gear, transport & weapons for them another matter
So a sane person that understands numbers would take option 3 because a better equipped military can easily take on a much larger force if equipped with the right gear
And that tiny little $400 paycheck does matter when that number is in the MILLIONS!
If Iran's government was to remove yaraneh from the top 50% and give the bottom 50% a little more by only giving them $100 per month in cash and benefits that would come out to $48 Billion USD a year
