7.2% unemployment rate, but this figure hides? Primarily the working poor, precarious part-time, poorly paid and do not live decently. The other figure is also over 12% of the French population that lives below the poverty line (ie 60% of the median wage is € 817 per month for one person *), and behind this 7.2% is an evolution of 21% of the working poor since 2003.

The objective of N. Sarkozy is 5%, and all means will be good, provided they do not cost anything. First step, the bill aimed at punishing job seekers. The labor market will become the only market regulated by the state, although the benefit on employers, because these measures will only stigmatize the job seeker.
Apart from the method that is deplorable, it's actually a nice sleight of passes that the government is trying, as these unjust measures, will in fact lead to a significant decrease in compensation, so contributions and allow transfer those contributions to unemployment pensions and avoiding an increase in business costs. But
The most serious is that this measure will allow companies to hire the lowest cost by forcing employees to take positions corresponding to 57% of their previous salary, jobs they can not refuse (26% job seekers have been unemployed for over a year ...). These measures will also have a counterproductive effect induced between each other on the mobility of employees accepted, or that mobility is a key factor in the modernization of the labor market by helping to make it more dynamic.
is a "settlement" of the unemployment issue purely accounting, and in no way a lasting solution. While we should, like our European partners, and enjoy the effect of the pyramid to efficiently invest in the training of pupils and students, and effective measures to accompany the return to employment. For let there be no mistake, the drop in unemployment figures is primarily the decline in the ratio between the number of young "immigrants" (the market) and former active "runners" (retired). Mechanically, stable economic situation, unemployment must fall because there are now more retirements than applicants entering the job market ...
Finally, these guidelines stigmatize new job seekers to look back and they are solely responsible for their fate, and therefore the only ones to bear the burden of reintegration evil warranty. We expect the measures will be taken against companies that lay off their older employees, while refusing to hire and train young people ... What is the right age to work? ... Jean-Charles
* In 2004, 10% of full-time employees earned less than 1,005 euros net per month, and half have seen a net monthly salary of less than 1,484 euros. The pay, said median is down 0.4% from 2003. This is what set him on the "poverty line" her half French by criterion of 3.5 million "poor", 60% according to European criteria or 7 million people affected in France.
