Full-time citizens to run their businesses, and their own projects, are not a lot, their number is very limited if compared to the size of the local market, or the number of owners of companies and institutions of different nationalities, and if we conducted an accurate census for them, we may be surprised that they do not exceed 1000 citizens, this is if we want Exaggerate the number!

Here we are not talking about owners of small and micro enterprises, and we are not talking about owners of Instagram accounts and simple products. Of course, these also deserve support and attention, but we are talking about a middle class that owns important projects, manages offices and employees and has workers, budgets, costs and many wages, They are completely devoted to managing their projects, hence the degree of risk that they bear, it is really very high, and in the event of faltering, they, their children and their families, will suffer greatly, and it is very likely that they will end up in prison if their matters are very bad!

This category is very important, and it is the one that creates a kind of balance in the private sector, and the more this segment of citizens who are able to manage their businesses and devote themselves to them, the greater the state's economic and even social gains. They are an important middle class for the money cycle, they spend everything in the state, and move They also have other medium and small economic sectors, and they contribute directly to the national economy, in addition to that they relieve a great burden on the government shoulders.

It is the ideal category that all government agencies and departments must strive to support and ensure its stability and continuity, but these entities must develop plans and strategies to increase this category, double the number of citizens who are able to devote themselves to managing their own businesses, and help them achieve the highest levels of success in these businesses, in various ways. The possible support, whether with financing, concessions or facilities, or reducing the cost of business for them, in a comfortable way that helps them to bear all their expenses in this difficult competitive market.

There are countries nearby that give this category a monthly salary as a support for it. It is true that this salary is much less than that of government employees, but they consider it a gift for this citizen who preferred private work over government work, and here we do not call for that, and this category of citizens working hard in the administration Important offices and projects, you do not want that either, they are not looking for a monthly salary, but rather they want attention, consideration, and simple facilities that help and help them, and ensure that they reduce the cost of their work in a way that achieves stability for them and guarantees them continuity, so is it difficult to implement that ?!

One of these young people once went to meet an official in a concerned party, with the aim of requesting support and facilities, and after explaining to him the situation and the difficulties he is facing and the high costs, expenses and fees, he answered him in one sentence, and in one letter: “As long as you are unable to bear the obligations, why do you open (Business)) »!

Is this the correct answer, and is this the right mindset that can take charge!
