lpv:translated text	". Anyone who satisfies the legal requirements can become an entrepreneur. In theory, one can imagine a society with 100% entrepreneurs, because there are no restrictions. As I said, the restrictions come about because in some countries in Europe the culture is such that people would rather be employees than take on themselves the risk of independence. I could name the Member States where that is the case. But there are also the obstacles that I have mentioned. Becoming an entrepreneur is a decision everyone must take for himself. We cannot oblige anyone to do it. The only thing we can do — and we really are doing it in a way that has not been done in Europe before — is to encourage people to take the step to entrepreneurship and to make that step easier for them, as well as we can. I am pretty sure that our efforts will be successful, but it is not a short-term project; it is a project that needs great staying power."@en1
