"Mr President, first came a song, at the start of this year. This song denounced a ridiculous world in which it is necessary to study in order to become a slave: our world. Within hours, this song became an anthem in my country. Then came four young people. They used Facebook to set up a protest that aims to bring together, and I quote, the unemployed, […] those who are slaves under another name, subcontractees and those on short-term contracts, those in irregular work, interns, and those doing work experience: in other words, the generations that, in my country, are indebting themselves in order to study, that almost pay to work, and that get by on EUR 500 per month. There are already more than 40 000 people signed up on the Internet for this demonstration and it is taking place this Saturday. It would be good if this Europe – this top-down Europe – listened to those who are renouncing fear and silence, and are tired of insecurity; of the insecurity that we have imposed on them. As the song says, they are ‘the ‘I cannot take it anymore’ generation’, and they are totally in the right."@en1
