An employment agency for the unvaccinated? He would do great business …

In Switzerland, employers, struggling with a shortage of permanent labor supply, but further accentuated by Covid, are organizing to offer an ad hoc employment agency reserved for the unvaccinated. This category is much more widespread in the Federation, where only 67.6% of the population received a complete clarification, and less than 30% received the booster.

We wish the Swiss initiative the best success, but would it also be available in Italy? Maybe not for employment on the national territory, oppressed by various obligations, but to find work abroad? Why not?

Companies, indeed the economy in general, needs two types of workers in principle:

  • The executors, those who take orders and apply them precisely;
  • Entrepreneurs, to be understood in the Schumpeterian sense, or, to put it differently, creatives.

The first category performs a limited activity within the scope of what is ordered to it. They must not overstep, they must strictly adhere to what the regulations imposed on them. It doesn't have to do more, it doesn't have to do less. They are only humanized automatons, destined over time to be replaced by real automatons. The second category is much rarer: these are people who are able, in a conscious way, to change their behavior and the environment around them. They are able to activate the cycle of innovation and destruction of the economy, which is what drives it forward. I am able to create new ideas, new concepts, new slogans from scratch. They are perhaps only skilled artisans or workers, who are not satisfied with following slavishly what has been done up to now, but who try to go further, applying their practical knowledge.

Do you think this category of workers is found more frequently among those who accept orders and impositions from above, without any discussion, or by those who examine every authority and analyze its obligations? The answer is obvious: only the protester is a profound innovator, on a small or large scale. Moreover, real scientific advances come from the contestation of the previous axioms.

So an agency that selects only those who do not want to get vaccinated, or at least those who question the impositions not sufficiently motivated from above, would have a good success, because it would select innovative and independent people. Too bad it would bring these skills abroad, and in Italy there would be only talk show hosts and half cartridges.
