>“I find it extremely worrying that the focus on competitiveness in the new Commission will risk overshadowing both social rights and environment,” said Tilly Metz, a Green MEP from Luxembourg. “We are now in the logic of boosting only the economic aspect of industrialization.”
Europe overall has an overaging, declining population structure with high and continually rising dependency ratios.
There is simply no way to afford any of these things Tilly wants without a working economy. The economy has to be the #1 priority because all the other stuff is completely meaningless and will implode within a few years without it.
