Che poeti che lavorano al sole 24. Meglio non ricordare che nel nostro paese fino agli anni 90 c'èra gente che andava in pensione con 18 anni sei mesi e 1 giorno. Io stesso conosco persone che sono andate in pensione sui 47 anni.

E poi almeno là ci provano a fare qualche liberalizzazione seria, da noi oltre le lenzuolate sbiadite non si fa nulla siamo un sistema bloccato da decenni con un sacco di persone che vivono di rendite parassitarie (è meglio 1 notaio che si becca 600k annui oppure averne 10 a 60k annui?)

Attracting foreign investment
These uncertain times are extremely challenging for the Greek economy, which is in dire need of new and substantial investments.
It goes without saying that the PASOK government needs to introduce accelerated procedures that will ensure the responsible state authorities will be able to give the green light to those foreign investors who have too often run into bureaucratic obstacles, among others, in the past.
At the same time, Prime Minister George Papandreou’s administration must guarantee the fair treatment of other investors, many of whom have been sidelined for too many years simply because they lack the necessary political connections.
The government must do everything in its power to attract desperately needed fresh investment by introducing speeded-up procedures and tax cuts for new businesses.
One can only hope that this process will not be undermined by the usual corruption, which is largely to blame for the state the country now finds itself in.

Middle class in the line of fire
By Nikos Xydakis


After the shock of adapting to the new circumstances dictated by the memorandum signed with the European Union and International Monetary Fund, Greeks are starting to realize that some of the measures, despite the aggressive manner in which they are being implemented, will truly serve to tidy up the administration and finances of the public sector, as well as help shape a new mentality and lead to better things.
The memorandum, however, does not just lay down the rules for fiscal discipline; it also includes interventions in labor laws and entrepreneurship. In these two spheres, the issues are more complex and dynamic than those in the public sector. The situation is complicated further by the fact that the technocratic authors of the memorandum are neither infallible nor do they act according to political or social conditions. They see numbers rather than people, and their ultimate goal is to safeguard the economies of Europe from the effects of any debt crisis chain reaction rather than to save Greece per se.
This is something else Greeks are coming to realize. They are beginning to understand the effects of the radical reforms not just on their own household budgets but also on the very core of society. Thousands of shops closing down, thousands of “To let” signs pasted on apartment buildings in expensive city streets and busy holiday resorts, flagging tourism revenues, sluggish retail sales, increasing penny-pinching among households, slashed wages and pensions – these are all signs of one thing: recession. And this recession is dealing a blow mainly to the middle class, the backbone of society.
Shop owners, merchants, manufacturers, skilled workers, the self-employed, these are the lungs of the real economy and of society. And it is this vast and fluid middle class that, as a rule, produces the intellectual and social movements that breathe new life into the body of society.
We are looking at a social sea change, which is only just beginning to gain momentum and become more turbulent, and which will have unforeseeable consequences. Only a profound understanding of this issue and collective action can avert the danger of social collapse.

Passenger traffic declines in first seven months



Athens International Airport said yesterday that passenger traffic declined 1.5 percent in the first seven months of 2010. The total number of people passing through the airport was 8.9 million, down from 9.1 million in the same period a year ago, the company said in a statement. International travelers decreased 0.8 percent and domestic passengers rose 4.2 percent, it added. Last month, 8 percent fewer fliers passed through the airport than in July 2009. International travelers in the first of the two key summer months fell 5.3 percent to 1.1 million, the statement said. Athens Airport is majority-owned by the Greek state and managed by German construction company Hochtief. Figures released earlier this month showed that the number of tourists entering Greece in the first seven months of the year via one of the country’s 13 largest airports fell by just over 1 percent to 5.9 million people.

Papandreou set to focus on social, growth measures over next few days to combat negative climate

The government appears to be pinning its hopes on overturning the negative mood sparked by the mounting economic problems by focusing on a range of measures it intends to take to boost social benefits and growth.
Government spokesman Giorgos Petalotis said yesterday that several such steps would be announced over the next few days in the buildup to Prime Minister George Papandreou’s keynote speech at the annual Thessaloniki International Fair on September 11, where he will set out his government’s economic policy.
PASOK is hoping that now Greece is on track to reduce its deficit, in line with its agreement with the European Union and the International Monetary Fund, it will have some room to develop economic policies that are not constrained by the demands of the EU-IMF memorandum.
Given that the austerity measures it has taken so far have proven unpopular and a number of economic indicators, such as unemployment and growth, are showing negative signs, the government wants to unveil policies that are aimed at helping the less well-off members of society and which will boost growth.
“We are wiping away and leaving behind all the hurdles that kept Greece back – bureaucracy, lack of transparency and patron-client relations – and we are steadily building a new growth model for the country,” said Petalotis.
However, the government spokesman made it clear that Greeks should not expect to hear Papandreou announce a series of handouts during his speech at TIF, as has been customary for many prime ministers in the past.
“We are not taking the populist route, announcing measures that our economy cannot withstand,” he said.
Sources said that PASOK is hoping the cost of most of the measures it wants to present next month will be financed by the National Strategic Reference Plan (ESPA), which distributes funding from the EU to various schemes.
The ADEDY civil servants’ union warned the government yesterday that it would return to strike action over the fall unless the government responds to its demands for better pay.
