The Social Business Initiative (SBI), as conceived in this report, is an integral part of the single market and has the express aim of creating the right conditions to encourage EU industry to channel financial investment to competitive, cross-border social enterprises. We oppose this view. It does not concern just the support of this wonderful entrepreneurship as a panacea for the crisis, concealing its true causes – the unequal distribution of wealth, increased exploitation of labour, unemployment, recessionary policies. The report goes further and sees the replacement of public services, which are people’s rights, by services rendered by these social enterprises as something positive, thus transforming rights into business opportunities. On the way, it promotes precarious work, advocating that workers be hired on a voluntary basis, ‘for the young who are beginning their careers, and for the elderly in order to share competencies’
Unacceptable. Obviously, we voted against."@en1
