Nobody Is Unemployed - Mohammed Yunus by mrmofasa(m): 10:56pm On Nov 27, 2012 |
Foremost Economist and Nobel Prize winner Mohammed Yunus has this to say on unemployment. "Why do we accept the idea of unemployment? For thousands of years, all humans were productive without having to be hired by anyone for that. And suddenly, two hundred years ago, we started believing that we need to be hired by someone to produce or to be considered productive. This is wrong, and does not do well to people or to society. We have to stop accepting the idea of unemployment, and make clear that everyone can be productive." What do you think?

He's bringing in class room theory into real life situation. Some of the problems we have in this country and the world are the experts. One has to be very careful when listening to these so called experts. Their theories could be misleading. |

@vislabraye. He's so ONpoint.. I think his theory is so true. In the real sense there's no one unemployed, because you can actually make the best of your time, if you are really focused. There's always that something that can put food on your table if you use your head. You just have to think, your ideas could be your greatest investment in this century as it is now 1 Like |

@kodeblurr I have to support you. . .and Mohammed Yunus too. The truth is that no one is truly unemployed in the real sense. Society has infected us with a dogma that only projects employment as being an employee in an office setting. That's what's expected of you especially as a university graduate anyway. Given that Society influences us greatly, it's kinda hard to agree with statement nevertheless it is true. |
