If people want jobs back, they should be demanding that the governments open up markets, lower taxes, fees and vastly reduce regulations on business and labor, and let people go back to creating wealth in order to better their own lives, in whatever way works for them.



However, I predict that this will not happen, of course. You have several generations of people convinced that government creates wealth and that government creates jobs, and provides for the general welfare, and that private companies are only out for self profit.... as if profit was a bad thing. They never seem to realize that a company only profits by providing goods and services that people want, need, and are willing to pay for. BOTH sides profit from this.

Hiring and firing regulations won't allow it. In fact it is so difficult to fire people that it is very difficult for young people to get a job at all. No one wants to be stuck with a young person that might not be reliable that you can't fire.

What is the average vacation time for employees in Europe?

I'm dealing more and more with European brokers/companies these days and it seems as if my contacts are on never-ending vacations.

But people are dumb asses and don't understand a thing about economy. They want everything without having to lift a finger and it's always someone else fault when it's not turning out the way they wanted.

I'm not sure where that figure came from but its incorrect. Spain is at 26%, perhaps 55% within a certain age group, 18-30 or something.
