THE COVENANTS OF MONCLOA "bis" (23/04/2020)

| Yayoflautas Cartagena | For a few days, part of the Government (PSOE) is proposing some "new" Pacts of the Moncloa (PdM), now changing the name to the bombastic "Pacts of Reconstruction" (PdR), having managed to seat the PP and VOX, Or so they appear, reluctant to do so until they have seen the polls move, although they have exchanged the Bureau for a Commission in Parliament, selling it as a triumph, as if such detail were fundamental. The other part of the Government (United We Can) does not seem so optimistic in view of the possible partners, and conditions such agreements to advances in the social and economic aspects focused on those who have the least, to get a support for the disinherited of society.

Because we already know the solutions to the crisis of these possible partners, and they are the same ones that are repeated as a mantra for any situation: reduction of salary, fiscal and administrative costs.

The neoliberal catechism of supply policies and fiscal and salary advantages for companies, of flexibilization of the labor market and free dismissals, of losses of social rights and of more cuts in health, education and dependency: everything that has led to this failed welfare state. It is more than evident the irrepressible joy of employers and unions manifested in a sepulchral silence, just in case.

The ones, because they could be a few more decades ruling in the shadows, and the others because they would cover up the damage they have caused to the working class by forgetting their obligations, and without a doubt it would give back a little of the lost credibility.

Perhaps it will also serve to resume the defense of workers, youth, unemployed, pensioners, etc.

That would be one of our greatest joys. For our part, we perfectly remember the PdM, as much as they have had their faces washed and idealized over time, because we were on the front line and they meant a full-blown attack against the workers.

Therefore, it will not seem good to us that there are others if they again represent new attacks on public pensions, social rights, workers, youth, women, etc.

Whatever they are called is the least of it, what worries us is the content. They are "preparing our bodies" and misinforming us, launching terrifying messages to intimidate us.

We know that the pandemic is going to have an economic cost, but we also know that in Spain 80,000 M € / year less than the European average was being collected and that the wealthy Spaniards are the ones who pay the least, by far, in all of Europe; that large companies paid € 27,000 million / year less for corporation tax than before 2008 with more benefits than then; that there is a little-sought tax evasion of more than € 60,000 M / year; that there is an underground economy of more than € 200,000 M / year; that there are estates such as the Catholic Church that takes 13,000 M € / year without more than a measly 2% reverting to society, having also appropriated 30,000 properties, many with significant incomes;that the ECB is giving money at ZERO cost to the banks to lend it, taking a fortune WITHOUT PAYING TAXES in recent years, and having laid off more than 15,000 workers in exchange ...

and we know that there are negotiations with the EU and that it must Yes or yes, the ECB can be "made money", buy non-refundable debt in the likeness of England and the United States, or generate "permanent loans" in which only interest is paid and not the principal, to avoid a real catastrophe in many European states.Buy bad debt like England and the United States, or generate "permanent loans" in which only interest is paid and not the principal, to avoid a real catastrophe in many European states.Buy bad debt like England and the United States, or generate "permanent loans" in which only interest is paid and not the principal, to avoid a true catastrophe in many European states. The entire effort to recover from the "crisis" of 2008 was made by the same old people while a few got rich, and if we have managed to change the government of the nation it is so that they also change the policies as it seems that they began, timidly, to change.

And it has to be.

The situation will require sacrifices and shoulder, and this time companies, large and small fortunes, banks, employers must bear the effort ...

and to a much lesser extent workers, self-employed, pensioners, etc., who have already done so.

been doing these ten long years. We do not want to return to that neoliberal "normality" that has brought us poverty, abandonment, social exclusion, precariousness, pain, suffering and even the death of thousands of older people abandoned to their fate, without just being able to say goodbye to their children and grandchildren.

, or your family. We want a great social pact that seeks good for the WHOLE SOCIETY, that leads us to a dignified life for all citizens, where all rights are fulfilled, universal and quality public health, public education, public pensions and dignified, dependency, housing ...

all of them collected in the EC, and we want them without the "market" being the one that decides who can access them, we want a social model that respects the environment, with equality, without the privileges of some by reason of birth, creed or race, but REALLY. If the social pact goes in this direction, we will support it without the slightest doubt, but if it is to return to the previous "normality", we reject it, and we will fight it, along with other groups, with the word and activism in the streets and squares.

, and wherever we are all and each of the Yay @ flutes of Cartagena. Yayoflautas Cartagena
