You do not agree with Jean-Claude Trichet? Yet he is right.
He said that any wage increase " would be the last folly to " in the current context. Countries " who have mastered their costs are very successful in reducing unemployment , "he added, referring to Germany.
His reasoning is correct, since it does not redistribute wealth . Increasing wages would be the point of view a stupidity that does not adhere either Medef neither the government: either, social justice, they do not.
Trichet certainties: he said that increasing wages, c is to increase inflation. But it's his job fight against inflation, for the cause he defends. It is paid for it. Without an increase in salary, hopefully. Him, inflation in its way. Not the accumulation of wealth in the hands of a few .
a time when oil prices are surging ahead (yesterday the price of a barrel was worth U.S. $ 105, its highest level since September 2008), and because of this Cheret, the price of "basic", that of food, will increase. Will therefore pose the problem of purchasing power of employees. Of those who go to work by car, the cost of heating, the electricity, etc.. To cope, employees will want their salaries be increased.
Jean-Claude Trichet knows. Its purpose is to think of something else, not to dwell on the immediate, unbearable for the masses. He said interest in unemployment, and his method is clear: the employee still in office to pay the cost of hiring! Beyond its obsession with inflation, it is the camp of those who say do not raise wages is to reduce unemployment, while others argue that employees consume better paid more, and therefore that companies with a revival of productivity, extra work, hire.
should not take Jean-Claude Trichet for what it is not: his sentence is awkward. That he will not change this fact well established for twenty years: wages rise less rapidly than productivity at work, one point per year, which is dedicated to profits, which are not to reinvest the field's productive countries but increase shareholder dividends. Last twenty years, the stock companies CAC40 increases, shareholder dividends flourish.
It was inevitable that this money comes from somewhere. It comes from the setting aside of the social question . Under the damper stagnant wages and global demand. Climbing unemployment and precariousness.
Look how the right does more boost the minimum wage . She even made a bet diabolical grant "relief" businesses who take advantage of exemptions, must stay below a certain level of pay ... what drives them not to increase wages! When you consider the reduction of social protection.
Then, in the context of extending the sphere of profits, reduced social protection, lessening the capacity of state intervention and destruction public services, that will left to reduce unemployment and precariousness, to increase wages?
In, other words, it does tackle will redefine the role of work in our society, and for this to blow the locks that are tight in alienating the last parliament and not put up with some paint strokes ?
