An interesting read about the capitalist attack on Romania. I do not believe that unions, as the article suggests, are at the heart of the matter. Nor do I believe them to be a solution.
I believe Romania is, at its heart, a land of peasants (people of the earth) and for any social/economic/cultural development needs to take hold it has to build upon those foundations.
As for the ruling class (business and politics) I believe this is the direction to go Walking Away from the King.
The age of “jobs” is coming to an end. Moving into the future requires a rethinking of core ideas about social organization. In that sense Romanias under/slower development gives it a head start compared to many western countries … it has less “advanced baggage” to unload.

@lifeinromania I agree with the aalysis, though I don’t think the problem or answer lies in unions http://t.co/pVqI4vNvBp
