Gasoline consumption management with a plan to grant gasoline to each person

According to Energy Press, gasoline has become one of the most important issues in the country. Although we were once the exporter of this important and vital material. Currently, we spend several billion dollars annually to import it. Various factors are effective in increasing the demand for gasoline in the country. Some believe that most of this demand is false.
Significant smuggling of gasoline, which has occurred due to suppressed and subsidized prices, and the ever-increasing demand for gasoline, have created problems in the country in terms of imbalance. The more we produce and import, the higher the gasoline consumption. It seems that we are stuck in a vicious circle based on increasing demand and supply.
On the other hand, the price issue is one of the challenges in this field. Recently, Masoud Mezikian said in the induction and introduction program of the Minister of Economy: “There is no reason for us to buy gasoline at the free dollar price and sell it at a subsidized price. Now that we give gasoline (at this price), it is debatable that (Do we really) have to give this? Do economics, scientists and international experience accept this from us?” The president said, “Our economists and experts should stand up and protest against the wrong policies we are implementing. But now experts and economists don’t protest… I (as the government) don’t have money for wheat, money for medicine and money for pensioners, but I sell gasoline for 50 tomans for 10 tomans. What logic would accept from us that we are doing this?
However, according to the officials of the 14th government, the issue of changing the price of gasoline is not on the agenda of the government. Therefore, it is currently not possible to realize the price of gasoline, for this reason, many experts propose the idea of ​​assigning gasoline quotas to people. In this framework, the gasoline subsidy quota is assigned to the nationality of each person.
Justice is the basis of the plan to assign gasoline quota to each person
Ismail Kefaiti, head of the country’s oil and gas innovation and technology park, in a conversation with Isna, stated that targeting the subsidies was a suitable measure that was put on the agenda in line with the fair allocation of subsidies. It seems that the allocation of gasoline quota per person should also be on the agenda with a fair goal.
He continued: Every action has a series of consequences for which we must have a solution. The plan of allocating gasoline quota per person is no exception to this rule. We are going to consider a specific quota of subsidized gasoline for each code nation in order to allocate the fuel subsidy fairly.
Gasoline quota is not suitable in cash
The head of the country’s oil and gas innovation and technology park stated: It is preferable that people’s gasoline quota is not given to them in cash. A more suitable method is to consider the gasoline quota for them in the form of credit. For example, we can consider in the form of our credits and facilities for gasoline that people do not use.
