The economic measures are not so bad. We must act quickly to try to avoid the collapse of liquidity and chain bankruptcies. A truism that I never tire of repeating is that the only entity in society that creates employment and wealth is the company. And no other. The other entities of society are “helpers”. “hinderers” or neutral. Spanish companies and entrepreneurs have shown that we have always been up to the task . On this new occasion. Spanish citizens have shown great civility by staying at home to avoid contagion. But from the point of view of economic activity. Companies cannot stay at home. Spain is a great country and we must make an effort to prepare ourselves from today so that.

We can overcome the economic crisis that is coming as soon as possible.Aid for the self-employed after the crisis: this is how they stay Posted on 05/26/2020 for self-employedfinance meeting-digital-effects-economy-extremadura-access-2020 The Government announced weeks ago new aid for the self -employed .
