12 Special Topics Natural gas production Labor force participation Middle class protest Housing prices High tech Overall satisfaction from life in Israel
13 The impact of natural gas production New natural gas resources have been discovered on the Israeli coast with amounts estimated at 760 BCM (27 TCF), The estimated value of the deposits is $130 bn. These amounts could meet Israel's NG needs for decades to come and the surplus could be exported. We expect some 2.5 bn dollar saving in imports, which amounts to 20% saving of energy imports. This should boost growth by some 1%, and bring the C/A back to surplus.

16 Middle class protest on social issues The protest was mainly around the cost of living and particularly the high level of housing prices. The Trachtenberg committee recommendations were focused on 2 issues: free education from the age of 3 and a change in tax policy. The committee did recommended about issues like public housing and competitiveness, but practically these parts of the report, were more like a long run vision rather than operational. The recommendations regarding education and taxes were mostly implemented. The change in the atmosphere and administrative actions made by the government, led to price reduction in some sectors, most notable, in the cellular industry. Housing prices continued to rise moderately since then.
