"The Europe 2020 strategy calls for 17.5 million new jobs in the European Union by 2020. Having in mind the current proliferation of bureaucracy and the regulation of the market, and in the face of the economic downturn and yet more European taxes, this is an extremely ambitious plan. We need only look at the countries viewed by the European Commission as leaders in economic growth, such as Poland. Despite positive economic indicators, unemployment in my country is over 14% and increasing annually. Imports of cheap products from the East, in particular China and India, increasing energy prices and the collapse of the European markets are key factors causing increased unemployment levels not only in Central and Eastern Europe, but throughout the Union. Unfortunately, flying in the face of expert analysis, European policy makers continue to go the way of economic perdition, pushing through ill-thought-out and unilateral reductions in CO
emissions and greenhouse gases. Experts say that in Poland alone, the energy and climate package will mean that around 500 000 jobs are lost by 2050. Accordingly, I believe that we should try to encourage a debate as soon as possible on the social consequences of the ‘strategic and long-term projects of the Union’. There was no encouragement for any such discussions in the document put to the vote."@en1
