The nightmares of Iznogoud are exactly the same nightmares that tyrannize the ministers. The ministers of labor, interior, education, industry, and the others. But the good ministers cannot address the problems at their root because they are not Iznogoud. For example, in the case of strikes, Iznogoud would abolish the unions, meaning he would abolish the strikers. But, someone might say, a considerate Minister of Labor would create unemployed people... That's the first mistake. Because Iznogoud doesn't "chew" since he knows that the problem of unemployment is simply a matter of recycling work. And when slipper makers become camel drivers, camel drivers become fakirs, and fakirs become slipper makers, then they won't be able to claim anything! How can someone be sure about this? "When you are an apprentice, you don't claim anything, Sir!" That simple...
