The protesters also voiced objections against the budget of the new government, which is expected to significantly raise taxes on Israel's lower and middle-class, while at the same time cutting government services on which those classes rely.
Demonstranterne protesterede også imod den nye regerings budget, der forventes at hæve skatterne betydeligt for Israels arbejder- og middelklasse, samt afskaffe statsydelser som disse samfundsklasser er afhængige af.
