Say, O Pharaoh, who is your Pharaoh? Say, no one stopped me. By the way, the truth is not always on the side of the government; this time it's on the side of the citizen.

The bearded citizen is not truly bearded:

Crisis merchants no longer have clear financial ambitions. They have ridden the duck, taking advantage of the citizen's habits imposed on him for clear and unclear reasons. But what if these merchants don't stop raising their aspirations? Does the citizen become truly bearded? There is a big difference between the citizen enduring a crisis imposed on him and the merchants imposing it directly on him.

Today, the citizen leaves room for merchants to manipulate, even at the level of the 500 lira note, which is now worthless but still present in the markets. Despite the difference in price between one seller and another in the same place for this denomination, the citizen allows it to continue. The 500 lira note turns into 500,000, and the chain of increases continues. The citizen, accustomed to saying, "What can you do with 500 lira?" unknowingly lets the butterfly effect take its toll. Here, we see that the citizen was sound, and it is he who made himself truly bearded, and that beard is the "lack of complaint."

Complaining is not a solution to livelihood:

In the context of suffering, merchants lean on their money, while what remains below them relies on pain. With rough and cracked black hands, many fear complaining, fearing it will cut off their livelihoods and erode trust. For example, the trade and consumer protection authorities set the price of a falafel disk at 250 lira, but a restaurant in the Mazzeh 86 area sells falafel for 500 lira, double the official pricing. What's the problem if you complain? It won't cut off the restaurant owner's profit; he already "made" his profit. Don't blame yourself and say, "Prices are high, and may God help the people." In this situation, we have no power over either of the two. However, we have the ability to complain, and then "the ice melts, and the meadow becomes clear," and we see the problem from the right perspective.

Officials between trust and complaints:

In recent years, due to "correct" decisions made by some to improve the economic situation, a large gap has formed between them and the citizen. The former does not consider decisions with due care, and the latter no longer finds a reason to trust. The multitude of rumors circulating among merchants and others has made them all partners in these circumstances. The Syrian economy now needs not only repair but also fixing these gaps and flaws. Officials repeatedly ask citizens to file complaints if they notice any attempts at cheating, but citizens express surprise at officials who ask for complaints based on rumors that may seem true in some instances.

Results of complaining:

As media, we cannot professionally point fingers at a specific entity because we have no evidence. The citizen, satisfied with his situation and being blackmailed, leaves no room for complaints. However, if you complain, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the relevant authorities hold the violator accountable in plain sight, leading over time to a sense of control and fear among sellers, or the authorities do not respond to complaints. In the latter case, the problem may be raised that citizens complain, but there is no response, allowing merchants to become more oppressive, and the poverty of the citizen increases. What remains only benefits each according to their own situation.
