EGG OF COLUMBUS PLAN ("Plano Ovo de Colombo")

Plan of Full Employment (on basis of Keynes, Minsky and Wray)
Or: The Economical Egg of Columbus

By Cacildo Marques - Sao Paulo

Regular employees (system of two journeys):

1* The time-tables of work are from 7 h to 13 h and from 13 h to 19 h, for the industry, farming and services.
2* The intermediary stop for the coffee is of daily 10 min in each shift.
3* Each 3 positions job (3x8h) are turned in 4 (4x6h); the increase of positions job is 33 %.
4* Employment of extra-hour is prohibited, except in the Christmas months: November and December.
5* Employee who gets in the justice the precedent regime works the remainder 2 h in the contra-shift, as an&nbsp;exception.
6* Trade union that moves action against the "Egg" Plan must be alerted that it will shrink, by lack of strategic vision.
7* The new wage, for 6 h, cannot be reduced to 3/4 of the previous one, being able to go down to 7/8, maxime. (*)
8* It is not question of wage reduction, unconstitutional, but increase of hourly wage.
9* Who will pay this 1/8 added to the value of the hourly wage? Answer: the productivity.
10* The monthly minimal wage for the 6 h has to be maintained equal on the precedent minimal wage, of 8 h.
11* Among the firms with 60 or more employees (5 dozens), the first half to join gains fiscal incentives for 2 years. (**)
12* Job of young persons from 16 to 18 years will be demanded, with reduction of theft of cell phone, by&nbsp;unemployed.
13* In new federal law, employers must be released of labour responsibilities on employees in military service.
14* Commercial enterprise that joins is prevented of attending at the Sunday after 13h.
15* In school of full time the teacher works one shift; other is of "trainers": of trades, of sports, of arts...
16* Dismissal is substituted for reallocation, public system what the enterprise resorts to in period of notice.
17* The GNP increases, with more employees and production, besides the time-table from 8 h to 17 h for 7&nbsp;h to 19h.
18* The traffic in the great cities gains a great relief, because of the division of the shifts.
19* The "animal spirit" of business is activated by a government action, not by run to the gold or impulse abroad.
20* If energy or labour are not sufficient in the beginning, this is a sign of promise, not of curse.
21* The program does not bring inflation, because inflation is a monetary expansion above the expansion of the product.
22* The Phillips curve, bonding job and inflation, was an attempt of restoring the pre-1929 classical&nbsp;economy.
23*The automation of the work allows to maintain 100 % of the EAP hired, without necessity of any more labour.
24* It is necessary to surprise the incredulous ones.

Remainders:
1* LRE: They who remain unemployed are employed through the Last Resource Employment.
2* In the LRE (or ELI: Employment of Last Instance), the contract is three days weekly, from 7 h to 13 h.
3* Half of the LREs (Last Resource Employees) works Mon/Tue/Wed, and another half works Thu/Fri/Sat.
4* The fired ones of the regular employment system are reallocated as a last resource for the EUR.
5* The Federative Unity creates his program of LRE and invites all of the municipal authorities to create theirs also.
6* The LREs receive half a minimal wage monthly, accomplishing three days of work of 6 h and the days of courses.
7* The LREs who work Mon/Tue/Wed do workmanship course Thu/Fri/Sat, and vice-versa.
8* The LREs pay necessarily the welfare-state discount.
9* The LREs are provisional employees of the Civil Service, in special regime.
10* The LREs hired in the state service, in the next year work in the municipal service, and vice-versa.
11* The LREs need to be necessarily of age.
12* The LREs are obliged opening hand of any financial government benefit, like scholarship or pensions.
13* The LREs can exercise detached paid works ("beaks", in Brazil) out of the time-tables of the LRE system.
14* The coordinators of teams of EURs are also EURs, but they gain pro-labore of 10 %.
15* The instructors of workmanship of the LREs are hired also as LREs, but can receive bigger wage (up to 1 m.&nbsp;w.).
16* The instructors teach workmanship, entrepreneurism and techniques for dealing with cooperatives of&nbsp;production.
17* The instructors take charge of doing campaign against the prejudice of manual labour, the ergophobia.
18* For joining the LRE, the citizen must be a resident for at least TWO years in the Federative Unity.
19* On the contrary of what L. R. Wray thinks, is not necessary the seigniorage of the currency for introducing the LRE.
20* The LRE system is permanent (J. M. Keynes), not only for times of crisis.
21* The general offices of work have the task of making easy the passage of LREs for the regular employment&nbsp;system.
22* The government spreads monthly the EAP Occupation Rate (more transparent than unemployment&nbsp;rate).
23* The end of slavery depended on the law only; the end of unemployment depends on constant action of the&nbsp;Executive.
24* If other FUs and the federation adopt the model, Brazil becomes the first market economy to abolish&nbsp;unemployment.
25* Since the society allotted the fields, impeded man of surviving by extractivism, from there, unemployment is&nbsp;madness.
26* The "reserve army of unemployed" is not a necessity of the capital, but a fault of the market, today curable.

Occupations of the LREs:

1 - painting of tree trunks
2 - help for older people in crossings
3 - cleaning of streams
4 - destruction of spraying
5 - painting of viaducts
6 - watching of public areas
7 - watching of public parkings
8 - extern watchman of in-out of school
9 - restoration of window panes of school buildings
10 - repair of school desks
11 - guide of tourism
12 - environmental guide
13 - supervisor against illegal occupations
14 - deliverer of pamphlets of civic campaigns
15 - home hunter of unemployed people

(*) A wage of $ 1,600.00 goes down to $ 1,400.00, never to less. It is the way of a war is not created with the&nbsp;
employees' trade unions. It is question of increase of hourly wage, with the objective of livening up the hired ones.&nbsp;
The&nbsp;employers must be urged not doing purely Taylorists estimations in this hour, because the new productivity surpasses&nbsp;any negative preoccupation.
(**) Incentives only for enterprises that increases the employees' number.
