AS WE INFORMED-IF IT IS CORRECT OF COURSE- FROM THE HEAD OF THE ECONOMIC ADMINISTRATION IN BRUSSELS, EVERY COUNTRY, GREECE AS WELL,HAS TO FOLLOW SPECIFIC PROGRAM IN ORDER TO FACE THE NEW ERA OF CRISIS. MEANS THAT, WE - FIVE OTHER COUNTRIES INCLUDING FRANCE - HAVE TO ELIMINATE ALMOST HALF OF THE ALREADY PLANNED INVESTMENTS FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS,2009-2011!-WELL,WELL,WELL!
- I HOPE THAT, IT WILL BE A SECOND MORE WISE THOUGHT,A KIND OF REVIEW FOR EVERY COUNTRY, IN ORDER TO "PERSONALIZE" THE NEEDS OF THE SPECIFIC COUNTRY. ALSO TO TAKE UNDER CONSIDERATION SOME IMPORTANT ELEMENTS i.e.CURRENT ENEMPLOYMENT RATES, CURRENT BASIC SALARIES, PUBLIC DIFICIT,CRIMINALITY RATES,LEGAL % OF IMMIGRANTS,THE PER CAPITA INCOME BY MAJOR REGION,MILITARY INVESTMENTS,STOCK EXCHANGE,PRODUCTIVITY AND IN WHAT AREAS (SERVICES & PRODUCTS)HEAVY INDUSTRY,LIKE TOURISM IN GREECE,VEHICLES FOR OTHER COUNTRIES, THE RELATIONSHIPS DEVELOPED WITH OUR NEIGHBORS -IT TAKES A LOT OF MONEY TO KEEP DIPLOMACY IN THE RIGHT ORDER & BALANCED SITUATION,etc.
- MY RECOMENDATION IS THAT WE HAVE TO GIVE A LOT OF ATTENTION & MAKE MORE INVESTMENTS THAN EVER BEFORE IN THE PAST. YES , I PROPOSE EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE OF THE E.U. DIRECTIVES.- I KNOW BUT AT THIS STAGE, WE CAN NOT CUT FROM OUR BUDGET EVEN A PENNY.IT IS ALL THE WAY AROUND. WE HAVE TO FIND WAYS TO SUPPORT ALL THE SEGMENTS OF OUR SOCIETY.MORE & MORE INVESTMENTS EVEN THOUGH WE ARE GOING TO BE AT 5% DIFICIT, FOR INSTANCE.THIS WOULD BE ONLY TEMPORARY- MARX, WAS FINALLY RIGHT WHEN HE SUPPORTED THE IDEA THAT " IT WILL COME AN ERA THAT THE EMPLOYEES WILL NOT FIGHT WITH THEIR OWN BOSSES BUT WITH THE UN-EMPLOYED EX COLLEAGUES"- WE CAN AVOID ALL THESE BY MAKING THE RIGHT THING:-GREECE HAS TO FACE THIS CRISIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE SOME STEPS TOWARDS PROGRESS. i.e.
1. MORE PUBLIC INVESTMENTS WITH SMART MOVEMENTS-STEPS.
2. GIVE INCENTIVES FOR FOREIGN INVESTMENTS IN GREECE, WITH NEW TAX LAWS
3. LESS BUREAUCRACY IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR
4. FAIR GAME EVERYWHERE WITH KNOWN TERMS
5. THREE SIMPLE RULES:A- WHO CONTROLS THE CONTROLLER?
B- WHO SUPERVISE THE SUPERVISOR?
C- WHO TRAINS THE TRAINER?
6. ELECTIONS EVERY FOUR YEARS ONLY
7. LAW SHOULD APPLY FOR EVERY BODY INCLUDING M.Ps.
8. A LOT OF ATTENTION TO OUR TOURISM,WITH SPECIFIC PLAN,ADVERTIZING, LOBBIES,etc.
- I believe with the above as a beginning, & a lot of other minor/ major adjustments we can make a new start !
- TAKE CARE YOURSELVES, BECAUSE NOBODY CAN DO IT FOR YOU!
