1000 days and no  job creation plan

Next Sunday, Laurentino Cortizo celebrates a thousand days as President of the Republic, in the midst of perhaps unprecedented circumstances. Although it is true that governing during this respiratory pandemic should not have been easy, we cannot continue to blame everything on her (or on the previous government). Despite the fact that there have been some successes (for example, in the vaccination process and the modernization of some procedures), as time goes by, the uncertainty in the productive sectors of the country becomes greater. The exacerbated growth of the state payroll, the inexcusable prolongation of the return to face-to-face classes and the existence of hirings of questionable legitimacy, are just examples that contrast with the immense needs that the country has, some of which have been attended with resources obtained through public debt. Now strategies are urgently needed to achieve essential goals and generate jobs for those 416,000 people who, two years later, continue to depend on the Digital Voucher. Have you thought about what will happen to them? $213 million has been spent on consultancies, but none has resulted in a plan for job creation.- LA PRENSA, Mar. 23
