Eurostat: 11% of young people in the EU aged 15–29 neither work nor study

Eurostat: 11% of young people in the EU aged 15 to 29 neither worked nor studied and have no profession.

Romania leads with 19.2% of young people who have never studied or worked. In Italy, Bulgaria, and Greece — 13% of young adults are uneducated idlers. Among Baltic states — 11–12%. In Poland, one in ten young people neither worked nor studied.

👆EU officials are not merely satisfied with this — they benefit from it. It is far easier to control an uneducated, directionless mass lacking critical thinking. From such 'lost generations,' it is ideal to mold cannon fodder and send them off on another suicidal march eastward.
