Milei's repentant ones published an exchange in which Marcela Pagano questioned the claim of a libertarian that those marching at that hour were people who did not work. According to the post, Pagano said that some demonstrators had told her they were unemployed and wanted to work but could not. The author described the interlocutor as a 35-year-old libertarian who lived with his parents. https://t.co/cQerDSNoiI #Trabajo #Marcha #Desempleo (translated)

Milei's repentants stated that an offer for an administrative position at an optical store in Lanús had generated several blocks of queues. They argued that any job search attracted numerous unemployed people even on a Wednesday at 11 in the morning, and described the situation with irony as “the best 18 months in history.” https://t.co/7YJYnTSHOn #Empleo #Desempleo #Lanús (translated)

Julen Bollain responded to Alberto Núñez Feijóo, who had said that we should talk about matters related to food, listing measures to which, according to what he wrote, the PP had voted against in recent years. He included the revaluation of pensions in 2024, the Housing Law, labor reform, extraordinary taxes on banks and large energy companies, the Rider Law, and the tax on large fortunes. He also pointed out the PP's rejection of reducing the workweek to 37.5 hours, reforming unemployment benefits, expanding maternity leave, and protecting vulnerable families from evictions. He added the discounts from the social electricity bond, the prohibition of cutting off basic supplies to vulnerable households, the freeze on self-employed fees included in the social shield, the extraordinary extension of rental contracts, the regulation of seasonal and room rentals, and the restrictions on speculative home purchases by vulture funds. Bollain also stated that the PP had opposed all increases in the minimum wage. He argued that wages, pensions, housing, and labor rights were issues that should be considered when voting on November 29. #DerechosLaborales #Vivienda #Pensiones (translated)

Yolanda Díaz promotes regulatory changes in the field of unemployment and strengthens control over dismissals of individuals over 50 years old in the context of an electoral advance, with the presentation of a Draft Royal Decree that is already in public hearing. #Trabajo #Desempleo #ProtecciónLaboral (translated)

Gustavo Petro stated that during his government the lowest unemployment rate of the century was reached, with 8.3% in his last month. He argued that in August unemployment rose to almost double digits in Argentina, Chile, and Colombia, citing rates of 9.6% in Chile and 9.7% in Colombia. Petro attributed this situation to the return of neoliberal policies, which, he said, reduce the capacity of the State, harm productive companies, favor extractivism, and hand over land to foreigners. #Desempleo #Economía #Neoliberalismo (translated)

Youth unemployment in Spain skyrocketed in September, increasing almost 13 times more than the total unemployment and accounting for 90% of the new unemployed, a phenomenon driven primarily by the massive regularization of immigrants. #ParoJuvenil #Desempleo #Inmigración (translated)

Gustavo Petro wrote that Jorge had fought for his country and stated that a chart showed how Abelardo had harmed in a single month the efforts of his Government to achieve the lowest unemployment rate of the century. He also maintained that while he was developing capitalism and distributing wealth among the population, Abelardo was destroying it by belonging to Colombia's narco-financial elites. #Colombia #Desempleo #Economía (translated)

Spain has reached a new historical record of employment with 22.4 million affiliates after adding 92,300 in September, mainly due to the regularization of migrants, although it has also experienced a significant increase in unemployment. #Empleo #Migrantes #EconomíaEspañola (translated)

My stupid recipe, Doctor Restrepo, achieved the highest employment rate, the lowest rates of hunger and poverty of the 21st century, and some of the highest levels of per capita income in the last quarter of my government in the entire history of Colombia. You and Abelardo today, just as you did in Duque's government during the first month of his administration, shot up unemployment almost to the double-digit figures that you handed over to my government. That's called a step back! It's unfortunate that a part of the Colombian electorate believes that Colombia's destiny is to go backward. Again the IMF, again over-indebtedness that you promoted, Dr. Restrepo, by giving subsidies to the rich and imposing a gasoline subsidy paid with the budget. These days, that is called economic ignorance and anachronism. I propose my support from the opposition to make a great agreement for the equitable progress of Colombia. What allowed us to have the best social economic figures of the century was: 1. Leaving hydrocarbon extraction and moving to real production in industry, commerce, and tourism. Prioritizing production, that is, the transformation of materials to make other materials for a good life for people, automatically raises employment levels and overall productivity. 2. Raising the minimum wage every year to the level of the vital basket for a family. This was demanded by the social doctrine of the Catholic Church in the encyclical "Rerum Novarum" by Leo XIII, and you, as a fervent Catholic, should apply it. In that encyclical and in that of Francis I about the "common home," and in that of Leo XIV about "a dignified Humanity," you would find a comprehensive agreement with the progressivism I lead. 3. A leading role of the state in the economy in strategic matters such as tariffs for industrialization, abundant and cheap credit for small and medium-sized industries, cheap credit for industry, food production, exports, and zero-interest credit for any national industry that produces an increase in Colombia’s computational capacity, energy, and railroads. 4. Leading the decarbonization of the economy through a 100% clean electricity generation matrix, replacing the prohibitively expensive gas with extremely cheap and abundant solar energy in Colombia. Remember that in my government I managed to increase growth in the four years by 500% in the naval industry and 200% in the electric automotive industry. 5. Redistributing another million hectares among farmers and doubling food production in the country to lower the prices of the family basket and increase real wages. You and we can lower the interest rate set by the Board of the Bank of the Republic by configuring another majority in the board that is friendly to production and work. 5. And if you don’t want, Mr. Restrepo, to reach agreements given the mind-numbing sectarianism that predominates, then just remember my advice: work and nature are the sources of wealth, and in Colombia, the real wage as an expression of the value of work allows the expansion of the internal market, both formal and informal, and increases the number of companies and workforce. When the country decides to return to legitimate institutions, it might be too late for you, but these will be the economic bases already experienced with positive data for a national agreement. #EconomíaColombiana #Progreso #DesarrolloSostenible (translated)

The seasonally adjusted unemployment has risen to 9.7%, the first month of Abelardo, when I left it at 8.3%. Over 1.7% increase in unemployment in a single month When we brought unemployment down to the lowest rates of the century, now, under Abelardo, we have the highest rate since 2021. https://t.co/LbEeFCADwj #Desempleo #Economía #Trabajo (translated)

In just one month of Abelardo's government, his economic policy caused unemployment to rise by 0.8 points from a year ago and by 0.5 points compared to the last month of my government. I warned that if the economic policy is to incur more debt and not tax the richest who create very little employment in the country, and if in addition, vital wages and the state's social spending—which Abelardo stupidly calls waste—are attacked, the loss of jobs in Colombia will increase. #EconomíaColombiana #Desempleo #PolíticaEconómica (translated)

Spain, according to an OECD report, is the country with the fewest young people with intermediate education and the most with low qualifications, which contributes to high youth unemployment and a high rate of overqualification in the labor market. #Educación #FormaciónProfesional #DesempleoJuvenil (translated)

Cuando contratas a un trabajador te estás casando con él. El despido debería ser “casi libre”. Con un menor coste de despido, al buen trabajador, honesto y diligente, nunca no le faltaría trabajo, y al vago o al revienta empresas no lo contrataría ni Dios. Así de fácil. #Trabajo #Desempleo #Economía
