I don't even understand how people survive when you have such prices changes on a daily basis and can't make a plan for anything.
It truly has become a game of mere survival, albeit a relatively easy one for now. For most people it means cutting all costs and purchases of items not related to absolute basic needs. A true economical depression. While still far from a 'doomsday scenario', this has severe consequences:
- You will see a huge wave of young children (under 15) seeking work/income. The phrase "Koodakaane Kaar" will take on a whole new meaning as the number of kids needing work to support their families will be astonishing.
- The country's birth-rate, specially in cities will plunge. More than it already has. Negative population growth is inevitable in Iran.
- Education will become a luxury only reserved for the 'haves' of the society. Many families will not be able to send their children to school/university.
- Crime will rise. A lot. Poverty itself doesn't necessarily increase crime, but instability does.
