Analýzy a trendy v SR, EÚ a USA Analyses and trends in SR, EU & USA
one plus one are two. The present American business model booms, it enables to run a business on the
land in the USA again, it is not necessary to export
work abroad. A weakening American dollar helps to
all of this because it enables to export the products
with added value. High level of flexibility of American economics gives it a comparative advantage
against the neighbouring world. Changes are happening there by speed of light.
Europe is afflicted by the sluggish structure of euroofficers who, as it seems, can decide neither fast
nor right. The problems of countries such as Greece
and of the whole rest of south Europe should already be solved long time ago by bankruptcy and
the help which we have already “pumped” there
several years should be invested to the meaningful
projects for development of business and services,
mainly in small and middle business sectors.
Why is it not so? Because such decisions are not popular. Because mentioned officers would not be sitting on their chairs. In other words, nobody is able
to accept their responsibility rate for the thing that
is necessary to do.
Focus on young people should be a priority of the
current power tops which in total blindness do not
solve the reasons of high unemployment rate and
do not rouse the interest of young people to work.
Regulating and designing of prospective work
possibilities should be one of the most important
points of governmental agencies in the future. The
present young generation is not dull, they only do
not see the perspectives in things that are happening around us.
If we look detailed at the timing of changes in the
USA and then at the steps accepted by the EU, we
are finding out that the expected changes are approximately 2 or 3 years delayed. Even if so little
would be sufficient. It would be enough, if an authority put in charge of the decision making would
be more active and the bureaucratic officers would
be replaced by young ambitious people.
Slovakia as fully integrated EU country does not
have a chance to proceed differently from the EU
8
rules. However, it is necessary to realize that in spite of that, we are the part of a large unit and it is
necessary to look for common ways of problem solving in the framework of the whole union. Even the
small member can change the direction. It needs,
however, full sui juris and responsibility.
The integration of local economies in the framework of the whole means respecting the growth
and at the same time also eventually decrease in
the demand. Slovak economy which is significantly
dependent on automobile industry does not have
a chance in the future for real GDP rise on prejudice of investments, which we have in the country
today. Manufacture of products which work is not
with high added value is whenever relocatable to
any country in surrounding. Our direction should
go the way of own products with added value so
that we do not have to be attacked by price war of
competition.
We are a small country. It is hard to win recognition outwardly as well as internally. However, chances which we have are big. Let's have a look at the
Swiss. Their economy is for long decades healthy
and flexible. What about following them? They
make outstanding and unique Swiss watches, so
well-known in the whole world and practically with
out competitor. Swiss chocolate is well-known on
all continents, Swiss banks are well-known where
ever in the world and many other products too.
Trends which we are expecting: a gradual relocation of cheap and low qualified production to countries with lower added value, stabilization of labour
market and realization of high performance projects
connected to skilled labour forces in the framework
of EU. Geographic changes in economy will be very
strongly influenced by global weather and changes
which are waiting us in the nearest decades. We
are convinced that very important point of the future development of separate economies will be the
handling of production and cleanness of agrarian
sector. Foodstuffs and their cleanness will be the
highest priority.
