The World Bank believes that it is in extreme poverty all who live on less than a dollar a day. Something unimaginable to many and shocking to many others. But when you're in a situation of poverty? It is said that anyone who receives a salary 60% below the average wage of their country. This estimate includes a determinant: purchasing power parity. And the Bank of Spain made public in October, English families are a little poorer. The facts are chilling:
- 60% of employees is mileurista (11 million)
- 2 million people receive the minimum wage (€ 633.30)
- The average pension is 861.49 €
- Youth unemployment is about 41.7% of the workforce.
- The unemployment figure is over 4 million human dramas.
is easy to imagine the purchasing power of a high percentage of English. Nearly 30% of pensioners are on the brink of poverty because their pension is below the minimum wage and truth is that every time we work more to earn the same, if not less, and more debt to us in the end, be less wealthy and go in a hurry. The volume of foreclosures is impressive: Increased by 126% in 2008 and 59% in 2009 and in the first quarter of this year broke all statistical stops over 27,000 lawsuits. Banks, especially savings banks, now have real estate in balance amounting to about 20,500 million.
It's no excuse to justify the crisis that our economy is in a permanent UVI. The market turmoil, the financial opacity, or by credit engineering that started it all, may be beyond the fragile temporary labor contracts, to no national competitiveness, low productivity or we pay the highest unemployment rate in developed countries. Buildings and works were made public that the current Minister of Public Works were recognized without evaluating their economic viability and cost of maintenance. Let's have less public work. We'll have to rethink pensions because they have increased dramatically while the social contributions that support them do not grow at the same rate and the lag is unbearable indefinitely. Make no mistake: we are poorer, can not live at the same pace. The longer we delay admit it, more will worsen our problems.
There is a certain fact that economic activity is low. And if there is no growth in economic activity. Without activity, out of things to produce, not abundant labor. Thirteen out of every hundred dollars it collects Spain are to pay the unemployed. Are we what we continue to allow? In short, we will have to dispense with the European staff, after receiving between 140,000 and 170,000 million euros in Brussels, from 2014 there will be manna for Spain community. In times like these statesmen are needed size to speak out at once, and explain in front of the enormity of the problem. Someone who, not caught in the government caucuses or ideological tax on the opposition to protest the protest, have realistic and sacrifice but returned rigor and determination. Someone told citizens to face so we can not continue.
first thing to do to out of a hole is stop digging. Every minute that we delay the reforms that are inferred from the overwhelming numbers of English reality we are giving a stroke below in our own hole. Miguel F.
