  1. There are many unmarried people in their 30s, who have no collage degree, no car, no driver license, no job, no income and no house. They live in their parent's home or a small apartment, they get small amount of money from government and they are stuck in relative poverty. I'm one of them, and I have experienced firsthand the challenges and limitations that come with this situation. Since all jobs require education, past job experiences and connects they find it extremely difficult to secure employment. I had physically demanding jobs, with low payment who destroyed my health, and they don't give merits. Im not materialistic nor care about wealth and prestige. If I open instagram I see some hot looking women with luxurious life but they didn't't earn their money through hard work instead they used rich men. Some people are desperate to become rich and high class at any coast and are willing to compromise their morals and values and I can't do that. I believe that true success should be based on personal achievements and integrity, rather than material possessions or social status. While it may be tempting to pursue a lavish lifestyle, I value my principles and refuse to compromise them for temporary gains. This kind of thinking makes me feel free because I don't compete with others or hate myself for not having the same possessions or status as others. Instead, I find ways to live well without spending money, I use creativity and im connected with nature. I would much rather live in cabin in woods than in a luxurious penthouse in the city. The tranquility and simplicity of nature bring me a sense of peace and fulfillment that no amount of material wealth could ever provide. Being surrounded by the beauty of the wilderness allows me to appreciate the small joys in life, such as the sound of birds chirping or the sight of a breathtaking sunset. Living in harmony with nature reminds me that true happiness lies in embracing simplicity and finding contentment within oneself, rather than constantly striving for external validation or possessions.

  2. Many politicians may worry that radical changes could lead to electoral defeat. Proposing sweeping reforms can be risky, especially if there is no apparent consensus or support among the population.

  3. There are several factors that can explain politicians' approach to the issue of the labor market and employment: Overall perspective: Politicians tend to look at social issues based on statistics and overall trends rather than individual cases. They may not always realize how difficulties in the labor market concretely affect people. Pressure from voters and stakeholders: Political activity means that you have to balance different interests. It may be easier to highlight economic indicators and perceived problems such as tax revenue and crime, which are more tangible to many voters, rather than addressing the more complex and individual problems related to the labor market. Ideological framing: Politics are often shaped by ideological beliefs. Some politicians strongly believe that education and labor market programs are the solution to employment problems, which can lead to them not seeing the individual struggle that many work with. Short-termism: Many policy decisions focus on short-term solutions that can produce quick results or create attention, rather than long-term strategies that take into account the complexities of the labor market. Lack of experience: Politicians' own experience and background can influence their understanding. If they have had a relatively easy path into the labor market, they may lack insight into the obstacles that others may encounter. Understanding this can help formulate more constructive conversations and questions to politicians about labor market issues and how to work to improve the situation of the unemployed and those who have difficulty entering the labor market.

  4. Many politicians are bound by their ideological beliefs. An ideology can influence how the role of the state is viewed in relation to the individual. Some parties place more emphasis on market-based solutions, which can sometimes lead them to overlook the need for more supportive measures for individuals who find it difficult to find work.

  5. The factors that affect entrepreneurship, such as access to capital, regulations and market access, are complex. Politicians may find it difficult to navigate these issues and may therefore lean more towards broad solutions.

  6. Many politically elected officials are under pressure to deliver short-term results in order to run for re-election. This can result in measures that are more focused on dealing with immediate problems rather than long-term structural changes.

  7. Funding issues can also come into play. Politicians can be bound by budgets and financial constraints which affect their ability to implement major reforms or invest in areas that would facilitate job creation.

  8. Policymakers tend to focus on the broader economic and social trends when formulating policies. They may look at statistics and trend lines rather than the individual stories and challenges people face when looking for a job or starting a business.

  9. It is not uncommon for politicians who have a long career in the public sector, academia or other fields to have limited practical experience of the labor market. This can lead to a lack of understanding of the real challenges that job seekers and entrepreneurs face.
