"This report combines a lack of realism with an ideological deception. It concerns a crucial element of the business fabric – small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) – and proposes certain measures that we support, such as the dissemination and provision of information, and the creation of local and regional export helpdesk networks. However, it ignores the current reality for SMEs, which are being steamrollered by recessionary policies that are crushing consumption and investment, by credit restrictions and, in short, by policies which are strangling SMEs, particularly in terms of tax, at the same time as granting benefits to large economic and financial groups. In Portugal, the Troika’s policies are ruining thousands and thousands of SMEs. However, there is not one word on this in the report. The ‘internal market’ excuse is an attempt to hide the consequences in terms of the monopolistic concentration in various sectors of the economy. Entrepreneurship is again presented as the miracle solution to the problem of unemployment. As a result, they are trying to shift the focus of society’s problem from its forms of organisation to the individual."@en1
