Flogging an aging population is only going to cause the small amount of talent you have to leave.
The same thing happens with companies - good people have options, crappy people don’t. If you make the conditions worse the good people leave and you get stuck with a bunch of dead weight.
And while it’s true that “the previous model didn’t work” that’s not justification for making another terrible decision - bad decisions are net negative, unlimited in magnitude and numerous, so sticking with a broken model while you come up with a better plan is better than taking an enormous step downwards
- nradov 2y agoWhat would you suggest as a better alternative? (I am not in favor of a six-day workweek.)

Apparently a big problem is that Greece is a great tourist spot but awful to live in. So change that. You can make a stricter tax regime to make sure people pay, but the first step to recovering is making sude your labor can love in your country to begin with.
- malux85 2y agoAs I said in my response - Even if one doesn't have an ideal answer, the next best thing is to keep searching for a good solution - rather than make an immediate terrible decision that is going to cause all of your best talent to leave - In this case even doing nothing is a better option than doing something terrible. Like what is their thought process? "We have to DO something, so lets do something destructive" ? It's moronic.
