At the 7th International Conference of the Economic Chamber, Nikos Androulakis<\/b> decided to remind us why PASOK remains the “eternal teenager” of Greek politics<\/b>: <\/p>\n
A lot of revolutionary theories<\/b>, zero contact with reality<\/b> and an unfailing willingness to hand out money<\/b> that doesn’t exist. <\/p>\n
In a crescent of communicative desperation<\/b>, the president of PASOK<\/b> attempted to “demolish” the country’s economic success<\/b> by dubbing the stability of the Mitsotakis government as a “political dead end”.<\/p>\n
After first giving us a geopolitical analysis of the Middle East -less the problem of the global economy will be solved by a PASOK amendment- he passed on to his favorite sport: chasing banks<\/b>. His proposal for extraordinary contributions and dividend taxes sounds great to the ears of “the people”, but in reality it is the perfect recipe to scare off any serious investor thinking of setting foot in Greece<\/b>.<\/p>\n
While Kyriakos Mitsotakis<\/b> has managed to restore the investment tier<\/b> and establish Greece as one of the world’s most attractive destinations for capital<\/b>, Mr. Androulakis <\/b>proposes to become a “normal European country” by implementing regulations that only the toughest socialist governments of the 1980s<\/b> would have envied.<\/p>\n
The culmination of globalization<\/b> came with the insistence on four-day work<\/b>. In a country struggling to close a decades-old productivity gap,Androulakis believes the secret to growth is to work less<\/b>. <\/p>\n
He called the prime minister’s criticism “shameful<\/b>“, but the real shame is promising “Eldorado” to young scientists<\/b>, while Mitsotakis government is struggling realistically to raise the minimum and average wage<\/b> through real growth of the economy and not through “patches” and digital illusions.<\/p>\n
Also, Androulakis<\/b> spoke of “quashed measures”. Apparently, for PASOK, supporting vulnerable households in the face of imported precision is “communication”<\/b>, while his unreasonable theories are “political<\/b>.”<\/p>\n
The truth is one and is reflected in the numbers that even he admitted: the economy is getting bigger<\/b>. And it’s getting bigger because there is serious governance that doesn’t play with the fire of populism<\/b>. <\/p>\n
Mr. Androulakis<\/b> dreams of a “Greece for all”, but with his proposals all he guarantees is a Greece for… for no one<\/b>, since investments will leave and bureaucracy<\/b> – which, by the way, PASOK has been making huge for decades<\/b> – will remain the only “stable” counterweight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
