Kemal Okuyan reacts to Rahmi Koç: 'The parasite is your class'

Koç Holding Honorary Chairman Rahmi Koç, had criticized excess employment in the public sector by stating, "They say 5.5 million people work for the state. This does not include soldiers. This state could easily run with 2 million people."

''IF THIS COUNTRY THROWS THE CAPITALISTS OFF ITS BACK, ONLY THEN WILL IT RUN PERFECTLY''

TKP General Secretary Kemal Okuyan gave a sharp response to Koç's statement.

Okuyan said, ''Rahmi Koç has essentially called the millions of people working in the public sector “parasites”: “They say 5.5 million people work for the state. This does not include soldiers. This state could easily run with 2 million people.” The parasite is your class. If this country throws the capitalists off its back, only then will it run perfectly!''

Rahmi Koç, kamuda çalışan milyonlarca kişiye “asalak” demeye getirmiş: “Diyorlar ki, devlette 5.5 milyon kişi çalışıyor. Buna askerler dahil değil. 2 milyon kişiyle bu devlet rahatlıkla döner.” Asalak senin sınıfındır. Bu ülke kapitalistleri sırtından atarsa asıl o zaman mükemmel…
