Speaking on Galei Tzahal, Ro'i Cohen, president of the Association of Self-Employed Workers, had strong words to express his criticism of the government's new economic plans.

"This plan is divorced from reality. The country's approximately 600 thousand self-employed workers won't receive a thing, even though we were expecting that the Prime Minister and other ministers would take care of us. I don't know why they are just abandoning us to our fate," he fumed.
