(en) FAI - Tierra y Libertad #323 - Capitalism won the
elections - municipal and regional (ca) [machine translation]
The truth is that the election results did not surprise us, have always won; have won
those who maintain the system. ---- Do not think you can change something, like the PSOE,
not to mention citizens (a party created by the financial elites to be a substitute for
PP), UI already know everything They are able to sell Marx to continue living in
capitalism; the rest, all just puppets in a system that allows the capitalist democratic
game to entertain the people. ---- When we say we mean people, especially those who need
to earn their bread by working, if allowed selfishness of capitalists who always aim to
make money off of detraerlo salary of the first. ---- Do not think that when the left
parties raised Popular Unity candidates are promoting marriage, and promoting the
separation of workers between those who believe in the participation in the system and
those who do not; Popular Unity is the only one that promotes solidarity, mutual aid,
brotherhood and equality among all and not the intended policy by leaders who foster the
verticality and the gap between rulers and ruled representation.
It seems incredible that we have to work, those who are not owners of the means of
production; those who can not find work because the capitalists decide to offshore
companies; we have to live on a salary, we are awaiting deposit the ballot in a box to
choose some representatives do not represent us and yes to themselves, to the lobbies of
power that sustain them and they kept in their status have achieved through our
participation in the electoral process created to keep fleecy.
If it is not understandable that workers deposit the vote for the parties of the right,
the less understandable is that matches what has been called left engaged to beg the vote
of workers to take part in some parliaments that are designed to maintain power and
profits of the capitalists. It is shameful that the so-called left parties and trade
unions are dedicating to beg the vote, or fight for power within their own organizations,
instead of agitating workers, raising awareness and fighting every day on the street ,
advocating the fall of the capitalist profit system and its replacement by a system where
the collective and the community are the social reference.
How can you be asking for the vote to the unemployed and not pose any reduction in working
hours, without any wage reduction, to ensure that everyone is working. You can not
understand that in a society where technology has advanced so far that has been able to
replace the manual labor of man by mechanical machine and where computerization is
replacing the work of people in robotics or self-employment machines, continue thinking
ourselves what we want to sell the capitalists and their criers, politicians, the need to
increase working hours to be more productive. That is one of the most blatant lies with
which they have crushed us in recent times and only because the capitalists want to
continue to accumulate money and power, no matter who has to die for it or do without the
necessities of life one third of the population.
From a human standpoint, we can no longer tolerate the continued promoting these
policies, and continue to support political and trade unionists are not able to denounce
this every day and fight it until it can change.
If instead of reducing working hours we do is increasing, as have political dictation of
the European Central Bank, the IMF and the World Bank, which is that we are encouraging
the unemployed to them much more difficult to get a work. All this leads to that companies
start offering paid jobs and those who do not have it because they have been caught
without any help to continue living and it increases the profits of the capitalists. Eye!
. which today do not call them benefits, that qualify as businesses are competitive and
increase productivity
As if this were not enough, increase the retirement age and years of contributions
required to be entitled to collect the pension; further down the employers' social
security contributions, all together there are more than five million unemployed people do
not contribute to the maintenance of Social Security or Pension Fund, bankrupts the entire
pension system and encouraged a future of misery for all who have been working for life
and hope to retire having a decent pension.
The consequences of all this
Doing all these reforms implies that young people increasingly have it harder to go to
work because if they have the retirement age can not do, never leave their rise to new
people who can access A job. This will mean that these young people can never achieve
enough years quoted to access a pension in the future and this will mean that, ultimately,
the collapse of the state pension fund, or what would be the same decree, the common piggy
bank of workers in this country. Once this is achieved employers stop paying Social
Security, which is what they want, and get to live in a society where they stop paying
taxes and that if someone pay are employees and workers.
Everyone talks of the problem youth unemployment and the truth is that it is a problem,
but is just as bad unemployment that occurs among people over 45, and that in all
likelihood will no longer be able to find a decent job that allows them to reach the age
retirement.
This is the last straw that capitalists, large financial corporations that large
multinationals are advocating and demanding the increase of the retirement age and at the
same time, they are getting rid of their older workers templates 45 years because they are
too expensive.
The wage and employment discrimination against women is another consequence of this.
Seeking solutions
The solution is not to patch giving paying jobs to young people, encouraging their
employment paying social security companies, etc., either to promote employment of people
over 45, or women. The solution is to reduce working hours while maintaining (minimum)
wages so that everyone can have a job that allows him to earn enough money to live in this
society, in which we only left the property on our bodies to earn a livelihood or money to
allow us to get that support.
The struggle to achieve this is a common struggle of all employees, we are young, old,
middle-aged, we are men or women, we are white, black , mestizos, yellow or colorless;
parcializar the fight in any of these segments is to bring our disunity and facilitate the
capitalists and the powerful continue to have us under the yoke of their laws and their
mental chains. We have to be able to realize it and promote equal union of all human
beings in the fight against predatory world and people against capitalism that only looks
selfish interests of those who hold economic power and, at the same time, political world
and society. We are the vast majority of the population and is a contradiction, completely
irrational, that we remain submissive to social inequalities.
We must be able to join in groups that promote community solidarity against the
individualism that we teach, since we are small, at school, and which remains the
cornerstone of education throughout the formative stage of human beings. We need to form
bonds of mutual support to help us to create an alternative tax system social network, and
that collective ownership practices against private property, germ of selfishness, we
facilitate getting a new world where it is eradicated capitalism and its practices against
humanity and nature.
What democracy?
Follow believing that capitalist democracy, representative democracy will be the solution
to the problems generated by the neoliberal capitalist economic system, it's like waiting
for an elm us to eat pears. Current democracy comes from the liberal tradition that
created it to be the system of representation of those with properties in the nineteenth
century they could only vote those who had money. Over the years who intended to power
were starting higher levels of participation but, when they got these gifts, it was for
fear that the revolutionary forces that sought to destroy the system were able to get;
that's when the capitalists sought formulas for integrating the discontented masses and
they could be controlled within a society that, to them, allow them to continue with their
business and their selfish enrichment.
The only democracy that can serve the interests of the community is direct, one that
integrates all the decision phase of the issues that affect us all; all this was spoken in
the streets of 15M and frightened them so they had to stop it and distorting it. In this
issue helped those who remain firmly on the capitalist system, many of them university
professors, were paid to create a party that took ownership of the popular revolution in
the streets and convirtiese that latent revolution in action encauzase to should not put
in check all structures of the capitalist system and representation, integrated in systems
compliant gear to keep the population through popular election promises and power, they
forget the true ideas background of the Spanish plazas. We think that is the voice of the
streets is like believing that there is a God who will save humanity from injustice.
Where are the ideas of direct representation and not delegate the power to decide which
were the essential spirit of the people's congresses the Spanish plazas? Nobody has
noticed that those parties and electoral groups that have been created by appropriating
the spirit of 15M, are replicating the same structures of power and representation to
which he kept saying, "no, no, not us They represent "? Has anyone seen these parties
promote the cult of the leader and not the assembly-horizontally discussion? Until we are
able to end the cult of the best, with the cult of most media, with the Permanent Delegate
representation, we are doomed to continue living in a society of masters and slaves like
the present.
People are excited that Greece wins the elections Syriza and that Spain can do the same,
but we do not realize that Syriza has not been able to break with the European Union which
is what is encouraging and shaping the system of neoliberal economy to predatory
capitalism, you really are so stupid that we can do it? When a party, a political force or
ideology is fostered, daily, by the spokesmen of the prevailing system (mass media: TV,
radio, etc.) it is that it is not a danger to those who control power and economy ; is
that they are engaged in the system, it is that they are over from the old political
elites for business as usual, so that nothing changes substantially, ultimately to be the
coat of paint that cover the previous paint we had in the wall.
Take control of our lives
The solution is in our hands, in our minds; We know what to do for humanity to live free
and united; know what to do to end the inequality, we know who are those who steal with
both hands; We know that democratic capitalism justice applies the laws adopted in their
parliaments and frees all who have taken money from all of us; we know that if instead of
giving money to the banks to cubriesen their debts had been given the money to people no
one had been evicted from their homes; we know that if everyone had a money or a job
waiting for nobody would be able to live in poverty; we know that less than one percent of
the world population accumulate enough wealth so that all mankind could live without
problems; we know that the state security forces serve to end the protest but not to end
injustice; Politicians know that after leaving their positions are offset by large
financial and industrial corporations for services rendered; we know that armies and wars
are created and used to plunder the natural resources necessary for capitalist production
without costing them money; we bless religion preaches that the system does not become
unstable; we know the system is a big lie that has taken control of the minds of people;
we know that we have to eliminate those practices which subject people and destroyed; we
know that if we do not act quickly humanity and the planet are doomed to extinction. If we
know all this at what are we waiting? Why do we continue voting system puppets? Why do we
continue to expect a messiah, a leader, come to free? Why not take control in our hands
and create the new world we all want?
The only alternative to the destruction we have in our hands is to take control of our
lives and, together, changing views and opinions directly search the solution to the
problems we have and create a system of living human fails esquilme the planet's wealth
and that does not destroy the environment, with a local economy that serves to promote
global equality, without rich and poor, without masters and . slaves, without leaders and
led, without borders and barbed wire, without death and destruction just killing
representation systems is proposed in the capitalist system we are able to get rid of it;
Only by encouraging direct democracy in decision-making we are able to take control of the
situation; just killing power structures will be able to secure the release of all living
beings on the planet; only with ...
Returning to the street, take the streets, talk as equals, we foster anarchy as the
highest expression of human order, no governments, no rulers and no ruled, no rich, no
poor, no leaders, no messiah, no God is; without borders, without differences of race, no
gender inequalities, without selfishness, without private property, without everything
that makes humans different. If we are all human, we are all brothers, if we are brothers
we practice brotherhood and we exclude those that foster otherwise have to make a
comprehensive revolution to help us free ourselves from all taboos and customs that have
nothing to do with nature, nor humanity. We foster the common, the community, share, live,
be happy, be free, we promote freedom and let the planet and those who live in it can
continue to do.
Think, talk, share and do not delegate our thinking, our voice and our natural wealth. By
anarchy.
