Labor Market, Unions and the New Labor Code

It seems Georgian government is very close to adopt a new Labor Code. The imitated debates didn't change anything in the approach that was announced by the officials. Only thing what can be seen very easily is emergence of some groups who call themselves Labor Unions. Labor Unions are still very funny in Georgia, along with very many socialist ideas unions are very unpopular in ex-communist countries and you need very strong efforts to return the population to them. This is really unbelievable. But there are of course very many people who work in this direction of convincing people to believe. Many of them are coming from the EU commissions and Labor organizations. They can't believe we really don't need unions. Or maybe they want to see we are as stupid as they are - this is a strong condition to be their friend. Unfortunately our government is not as strong in its ideas as is needed for refusing to this. And the opposition in this field is even worse. Nobody thinks about what kind of : - damage can bring to the labor market Labor Code - disadvantages creates the Labor Code to investors and management - danger can arise from the interventionism like labor regulations - discouragement creates uncertainty at the labor market for education - irresponsible motivations and activities appear from regulations of labor, etc. To listen to the government it is other private persons' duty to be responsible for pregnancy of a woman - they have to pay for her special vacations. Some others believe that a man who has 4 children cannot be fired - it is not just. Like in very many situations everybody try to forget that the main source of all of our wealth and opportunities is entrepreneur - businessman, who creates everything and there is no other money from nowhere and nobody. Government money is also very same money coming from entrepreneur, foreign money is also money of entrepreneur. So if we want employment, if we want services and goods, if we want to live - let's not make obstacles to entrepreneurs, let's give them freedom of choice.
