"Mr President, at a time when unemployment is high in the countries of the European Union, it is vital to draw up a European employment strategy. First of all, however, such a strategy should prohibit all large companies from making mass redundancies along the lines of those currently being implemented by the extremely wealthy trust, Alcatel. Everyone knows that the responsibility for unemployment lies principally with these large companies, which are not only failing to create the extra jobs they should, but are eliminating jobs purely for the benefit of shareholders. Furthermore, any employment strategy should commit the Member States to taking the initiative in creating the hundreds of thousands of jobs lacking in all the Member States of the European Union, in hospitals, the public transport sector, the postal sector, or in education. It would also be in society’s interests for the Member States to set up large-scale projects to build low-cost, high-quality accommodation. The current policy, however, which consists of privatising public sectors left, right and centre, is exactly the opposite. Under these conditions, talk about an employment strategy is nothing but pious hopes."@en1
