The latest figures on the concerns of the Italians return a result that can not be underestimated by those who have responsibility institutional and government among the themes heard today, in the first place we work. Have been overshadowed by the safety, health, housing and more.
the first place had already put our founding fathers: work as the basis of the social life of a country is in the first article of the Constitution. And the evidence today is total: the daily alarm is not a day passes without the local press reported are not a closure, a failure, a layoff, a reduction in staff. A war report.
Electrolux is now the center of attention, more than 500 jobs at risk in an area that was proudly called our "Steel Valley". But we can not forget the many crises of the March, the 60,000 jobs lost over the past two years, the complaint of the ANC president Veneto underlining the deep crisis in the construction field, with the loss of 23,000 jobs in recent years and connecting the sectors related to construction, you get to 30,000 jobs lost.
policy and bodies to protect workers are moving with the tools they have, ask a contraction of the lower seats, a lengthening of the layoffs, pushing on social safety nets.
But only gap measures. The problem is deeper, is structural and policy in our country must put in its agenda as a priority. The OECD has given us the black jersey in Europe, we are last in the G7 with a lower growth, 1.3% more in the fourth quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009, when Germany travel at 4% but also France and other European countries are shared with growth of around 3%.
and entrepreneurs in Veneto, after Carinthia, comes the offer of Brandenburg, the strategic area around Berlin is offering grants of 50% grant on investment, generous exemptions, practical speed, and technical and financial. The production costs are equal to ours, but the workers are in payroll wages virtually double that collected in Italy. We are in Europe, not in the country of plenty or in the "Far East" and the proposed conditions are set, the traces of their 24 U.S. in a meeting that was held at the German Consulate in Casale sul Sile.
Faced with this situation can no longer traccheggiare. 30% of our people are unemployed and there's a million people who do not look for more: a country that looks to the future with a sense of responsibility can not remain idle. Tremonti Calls to Europe more flexibility, but Germany is in Europe and respects the rules. The weight of our bureaucracy, the problems related to credit, a justice of which 10 years are not enough to solve the disputes of the companies, a tax that now weighs more than 50% on 'corporate profits, the lack of road and railway infrastructures appropriate: boulders are on the job, a burden that prevents our economy to take a breath to start again in a time when the international situation opens up some crack.
We do not seek an excuse, not hide behind exigent circumstances: the emergency is now the fourth side of the Mediterranean burning yesterday were the crack of banks and default states, who knows ... tomorrow we start a path of responsibility, we start with humility, aware of the difficulties that will have to overcome, but we do not create expectations miraculous by the rules of fiscal federalism, as has been amply demonstrated, but an increase will not bring relief the tax burden on our businesses with the IMU, and a lowering of IRAP will be linked only to a set-off against other income for the government.
Every long journey begins with the first step: now the government has the numbers , put in first place in its agenda the issue of work as priority to the stability of our country and finally give hope to young people, their families, their future. A future in which they can choose: to remain in their own country or go abroad, but by choice, not necessity.
