DEMOCRACY AMENAZADA.La opinions of the policy creates a wide space for populist demagoguery
Yesterday I returned to live in my city another example of verbal incontinence of our political leaders. Another claim to be jokes insults funny and grotesque become dialectical. I can not believe that nobody is able to reason our charismatic leaders and make them see that that is falling over politicians, that is not moderation, education and ideas and much harm. Lei
Josep Ramoneda long ago in his column in the Country (04/21/1911) that one of the gaps that are most irritating to citizens is that which separates government and opposition: the failure of one another to address together the high-risk situations.
This is one reason why our political class is one of the most uncouth moments in the history of democracy. It is a fact that the citizenry feels completely abandoned by those who govern. Trust in politicians is at rock bottom: According to the CIS by 67% think that politicians are bad or very bad. Third problem severity scale Pais.
The suspicion that the world of politics is infested with corruption, 91% of the English not much or no confidence that politicians, whether government or opposition, act with "honesty and integrity" .
And finally the feeling conveyed by the English that politicians can not solve their problems by failing to take measures that are needed because they are bowed to the new powers that the markets or speculators.
this situation frustrating and disenchanting, those creams that democracy remains the only possible system, we will have to rethink it and claim to so much longing for the far right and to those who want a ride on the "up Spain" in they see as the final phase of its assault on power.
is clear that having an agenda so similar between left and right and not be able to offer opposing models to common problems, not help.
is obvious that encourages right-wing populism when it boasts of powerlessness against the economic power.
That when you do not mobilize to defend your positions but by the others tend to be late to address the problems.
no doubt that when there is a gap, vast right now, between the government and the citizenry, the populist demagoguery school to promote his concept of nihilism "the worse the better", his anti-Europeanism, his cuts in social rights its discrimination in favor of the privileged, thereby preventing any standard of fairness applied to divide the costs of the crisis.
seems to me very important that from now on! POLICY is imposed, ie resuming public life and institutional action, ending once and for all with the miserable idea of \u200b\u200b"every man for himself" that both encourages market.
As Claudio Rodriguez wrote, academic illustrious Castilian Lions:
Fear, defense,
the interest and revenge, hatred, loneliness
: here is what made us live in the vicinity
, not company.
It seems imperative to end the speech of the liquidation of the welfare state for accounting purposes in designing the state administration as a company with their own standards of management and submissive to the owners of big business. giving up the essential duty of uncorrected social inequalities over the fierce logic of profit. We must give an immediate response to the crisis that puts the interests of the masses.
Let us return to the feelings as intrinsic to the left to the citizenry about the illusion, imagination, utopia, dreams, future, welfare, equality, freedom, respect, loyalty.
Only then will take any hard work rewarded.
Only then can we change the image of the sad and helpless figure of political banshee. Only then can we regain our belief that there is nothing more noble to let your best at work to improve the living conditions of the society you live.
Only then will leave a great legacy to our children. Improving the quality of democracy.
Creamonos as Salvador Allende said that history is ours.
Take care
