Despite of the current economic crisis, Goldman Sachs and J.P.Morgan have announced a new recession in 2012, besides the low Spanish production. In these saving and cutting times some voices are claiming to be able to fire government employees in the case of a bad economic situation or low productivity. Should we fire government employees? Greece has been the first country to announce a massive public employees dismiss.
Everybody has had to tighten their belts, I think that the fact of firing people due to their low productive or the economic crisis is totally logic and advisable
If a private sector employee is not productive and could be fired, why a public one can’t? The public administration is that, public, and it is very bad managed specially if we take into account that in Spain, we have a government employees excess and a poor production, paying an employee for doing nothing have no sense.
I do not share the idea of being invulnerable just for passing an exam and receiving a salary for your entirely life and doing nothing in return. In the other hand, it is very sad to have that dream, my target is not just receiving a salary but also consider myself useful, satisfied with what I do and have the chance of growing and learning, knowing that I am not stealing anybody.
I’d outsource some public functions, this way we could save a great amount of money and specially we would be more competitive and increase our low productivity.
