The boredom of having a job

“The idea of a fixed job for your whole life? What monotony! Young people will have to get used to the idea that they won’t have that." That’s what Monti was saying yesterday. Don’t worry Rigor Montis! Young people are not getting bored. They’ve been moving forward for some time. Not only do they no longer believe in the fixed job, but not even in the variable one. And as fast as they are not believing, or perhaps so as not to get too bored, in recent years they have been fleeing abroad. Italy is the second European country after Romania for emigrants.
The young people that have said good bye to the “Bel Paese” for reasons of “force majeure”, lack of available work and no hope of having it, starvation wages and no security, are mostly graduates and those with diplomas. They have studied in our Universities with sacrifices on the part of their parents that are often unimaginable, to become emigrants. Most of them will not come back, simply because they cannot come back, to live and work “on projects” at 600 euro a month and supported by their family. If this bloody haemorrhage continues, this abdication of the future (the young people are the future!) is not an emergency, well then what is?
Youth unemployment is fed by this government’s wretched choices and by those of the previous government. The other States invest in innovation. We invest in cement and bomber planes. The useless tunnel of the TAV in Val di Susa will cost 22 billion, and the F 35 15 billion. With these colossal figures it’s possible to create innovation zones, for technological development. Get Italy to take off again by hanging on to technicians, engineers and computer people. Olivetti, Telettra, Telespazio, Italtel, the whole of the nation’s computer industry has been substituted by the cement industry. But where do we want to go?
In Europe, youth unemployment is on the increase, and even in this case at two speeds. Obviously, we are in the big group that is preparing the way with 31% (*) but the ranking does not take account of the young people that have emigrated. The average for the eurozone is 21,3%, 10 points less. What boredom, what monotony! A country that doesn’t manage to give a future to the new generations is a country on the road to extinction.
