More reasons for Europe to get less investments

[libertine]

The real question is: is that the type of investment and investors you want in the EU?

This isn't just about investors, it's also about getting access to systems that people with employment contracts have, that gig workers don't have.

Why should they be treated as second-class citizens?

So not only do companies save on employment expenses, and offload them to the gig workers (who are underpaid generally), but they also have limited access to the market for things like credit.

Poor investors, right?

If investment means worker exploitation, all the better.

If the "investment" is just another scheme to provide downward mobility to middle-income households, Europe is probably better off.
