"You cannot put all your eggs in the same basket, you have to diversify the economy," the president stressed, also emphasising that in order to continue being tourism leaders, certain things must change and future challenges must be faced. In this regard, she referred to new tourism regulations that will make the Balearics "the first circular tourist destination in the world". To this end, there are discussions with employers and unions, the president noting that she hopes that planned legislation will be improved by the parliamentary process.
The legislation, she explained, will oblige hoteliers to adopt circularity plans. Tourism, she argued, should not only be for the benefit of hoteliers and of tourists themselves. It must have a "positive impact on the islands and be a motor for the rights of workers and the ecological footprint".
The legislation will require hefty investment by hoteliers, for which the government will assist with European funds.

Somehow I suspect that of she were a "hot babe", you'd be equally criticising her for being a "hot babe".
My god! That woman really has the dress and fashion sense of a russian.
Spot on Zoltan! The Autonomo is the biggest disincentive I have heard many people complain about. I have seen many little businesses start up, last a year, then fail because then the full Autonomo becomes payable. It’s a joke that no one seems to be able to change the punchline to.
Everyone knows this but how? I haven't seen any politician from any of the parties say how they will do this. Making it easier/cheaper to become self employed would be a start. As it stands it seems like everything is done to discourage people starting up a business.
