EU Politics: Only Rookies Have No Plan 'B'

the bigest problem with all of those "burrocrats" is that most of them have never run a business of their own, being resposible for its payroll and cash flow. The population problem in Europe, (I was born and raised in Portugal) is derived from obsolet labor, housing and education rules. We are educated to be a paper pusher somewhere, demand a job that does not exist for which we would not be qualified and would not produce enough to pay our own compensation, forget about producing a profit to expand the enterprise, and demand that that job is guaranteed almost forever working 11 months a year and getting paid for 14 months. Then we want to rent a place to live in and once you get in the landlord pretty much looses control of the property, although still resposible for the taxes and up keep. Because those jobs no longer exist and no one is going to invest in property under the actual leasing laws, the young people are forced to live at home with their parents, where they can not have the freedom to develop full relationships leading to mariage. That is my view on the problems afecting the european graying population. This is a result of two generations accepting the Crap the polititians have been feeding us for the last 40 years to keep getting elected.
