The bad thing about their distorting situations
is that in the end they actually believe it, adopting measures that confirm the
lies that they fabricated. Much was said of the “right to strike"... and
then they did everything possible to prevent many workers from exercising that
right. Examples: salary deductions that many citizens with economic hardships
can’t absorb, especially when faced with veiled threats that their employment
contracts might not be renewed; making all
employees sign that they agree to provide the “minimum required services”
during the strike...
As a scientist I reject biased descriptions of
reality... because they are eventually harmful to everyone. And whether they
like to recognize it or not (and as was to be expected and has often been
predicted by those qualified to do so) the reality is that present policies
will lead not only to genuine economic disaster, but to social disaster as
well. Look at what is happening in Greece and Portugal. Please
stop haughtily repeating that you are in possession of the truth, that there
are no alternatives, and that your roadmap is the best and only one!
Perhaps they still have time to abandon their
bulldozer tactics and reach agreements, offering incentives to SMEs and the
self-employed... and to offer a plan with
clear objectives and bold and effective measures to implement it, including and
foremost, the very structure of the state. The Constitution should be the
solution, not the problem...
