Consumption, sting from 1.500 euros per family

According to Adusbef and Federconsumatori, the widespread price increases will lead to a drain of 1.490 euros per family in 2013 – "These are unsustainable increases that will determine new and very heavy repercussions on the living conditions of families".

Consumption, sting from 1.500 euros per family

Price and tariff increases (Rai license fee, postal and banking services, airport tariffs, waste tax, utility bills, motor liability, etc.) will cause a drain of 1,490 euros per family in 2013. The alarm was sounded by Adusbef and Federconsumatori who warn: "These are unsustainable increases that will determine new and very heavy repercussions on the living conditions of families (already severely tried) and on the entire economy, which will have to continue to reckon with a deep and prolonged crisis in consumption”.

A complex of price increases of almost 1.500 euros per family, due to the increases, above all, in the Rai license fee (+1,5 euros which will bring the tax to 113,50 euros per year), in airport tariffs (+8,5 euro per ticket), tolls (+2%), postal rates (from a minimum of +15% to +40% for priority mail), banking services and car insurance (+5%).

The position of consumer associations is extremely harsh: "This way the fate of families will not be improved, the exit from the crisis is becoming increasingly distant and improbable".
