Spain has an interesting problem right now. There is a high unemployment rate and also a large number of jobs unfilled and offering rather eyewatering salaries (tech jobs in Spain are currently offering more than tech jobs in the City of London).
The issue there is that the home population, the younger generation, is unskilled for the current marketplace. There is unemployment and there are jobs, but the Venn diagram does not show a great deal of overlap between the two and the unemployed remain out of work whilst the jobs remain unfulfilled.
Education is the single biggest thing needed across the whole of the EU, but it is really desperately needed in the places currently showing the highest unemployment rates. Jobs are there, but the jobs don't match the skills of the people in those areas who have historically plied different trades than the ones offering jobs today.

Weirdly enough IT is in part trying to tackle it's own skill shortage.
Not going to say it's saintly with jobs moving to cheaper areas too...but it creates ideas perhaps all sectors can use?

That article was panned over on HN with no evidence of those high salaries being offered at all.

I mean "everyone" who is in the UK/EU.
People need jobs / money/ houses etc
I mean, if people are moving to the UK EU, where are all the jobs for those already and those who are moving here? What investment is necessary to provide decent opportunities for everyone?
