No hope for that, we are doomed , big deficits, big debt, low productivity, ageing population

They are protecting their interests , in Romania there are 2 classes of people: private sector = slaves who get hit by all the burden and there are the politicians, magistrates, judges, institutions, etc who don’t pay any shit even if the country would default on its debts.

Doesn't the public sector also have 2 classes: the slaves working their ass off for minimum wage (those who don't have good connections) and the "nobility" who barely works at all and earns above average wage (connections, nepotism)
