Re: Are people in need of help or a smack?

There has been a number of reforms in western europe recently, when it comes to different sorts of welfare. Anyone remember the pension reforms, who "suddenly" became so all-important? Even in Norway, with our massive oil-fund, low unemployment, zero federal debt and relativly high number of children beeing born, there was a push for a new pension reform.

These kinds of labor reforms will be pushed trough, not becouse they will help solve the real problems, but to save money for the government and to help keep the cost of labour down.

· Responsibility for getting long-term unemployed into work to be devolved to voluntary and private sector

And this is just like saying "HERE IS A NEW RESERVE ARMY OF PEOPLE YOU CAN TREAT LIKE SHIT AND PAY MINIMUM WAGE TOO".

Oh, and get subsidies too!
