The column highlights the exhaustion of political actors and their need for stability, which prevents calls for the resignation of the current Catalan government despite the crises it is facing. It then discusses a less visible, or potential, crisis rooted in the current economic model. It emphasizes that part of the young population cannot bear the tax burden with their current income, while political and business sectors reject increasing social spending, considering it inefficient. The author argues that economic improvement should not be based on growth in volume, but rather on increased productivity, and calls for structural changes to move away from unsustainable businesses toward a more efficient and balanced economic model.
