It seems a lie, but for public education, in the case of ANEP, this Surrender consists of 
a single article which says that 1,500 million pesos, or 50 million dollars, will be 
granted for wages. It is not said how they will be distributed, amounts, terms, games, 
etc. Nothing. ---- However, the project provides a detailed chapter for the Ministry of 
Interior, where there is an abundance of all kinds of posts, which amount to several 
hundred, funds are given for hierarchical positions and for recruiting university 
professionals of various orientations. It is striking that it is one of the few ministries 
that require this kind of professionals, so it can be appreciated that police 
technification involves inserting into the police apparatus sociologists, psychiatrists, 
various graduates ... Also, to collaborate with the Repression one of the few job exits 
that have graduated professionals from the University tells us about a big problem, where 
is the higher education in the country is turning.

LETTER OPINION fAu

JULY 2017

An Accountability that gives nothing to popular needs

It seems a lie, but for public education, in the case of ANEP, this Surrender consists of 
a single article which says that 1500 million pesos, or 50 million dollars, will be 
granted for wages. It is not said how they will be distributed, amounts, terms, games, 
etc. Nothing.
However, the project provides a detailed chapter for the Ministry of Interior, where there 
is an abundance of all kinds of posts, which amount to several hundred, funds are given 
for hierarchical positions and for recruiting university professionals of various 
orientations. It is striking that it is one of the few ministries that require this kind 
of professionals, so it can be appreciated that police technification involves inserting 
into the police apparatus sociologists, psychiatrists, various graduates ... Also, to 
collaborate with the Repression one of the few job exits that have graduated professionals 
from the University tells us about a big problem, where is the higher education in the 
country is turning.

And work?

Policies and investments to generate employment in this Accountability are lacking. All 
the expectation is placed in waiting UPM's investment as a manna fallen from the sky. Not 
only will economic dependence increase, but the employment that will be generated will be 
in the construction phase of the work, but not beyond it. It is not a proposal of economic 
development, it is a momentary palliative so that the numbers continue closing.
The privatization returns

Step by step, and in fragmentary form, the government has been advancing in the 
privatization of different areas of the State. Much is said about refloating the railroad, 
but always linked to the investments of multinationals, as is expected from UPM. This type 
of investment, which can be via Public Private Participation (PPP) or directly with state 
funds to meet the needs of this multinational, will be in the hands of a "private 
operator", that is, a private company.
The workers of Ancap have suffered not only the declaration of Essentiality, but under it 
the closing of the medical service was carried out. With the speech that it is "a luxury" 
and "we must be supportive" to pass these workers to FONASA, a service that specifically 
addresses the occupational diseases generated by oil and its byproducts and portland 
cement is closed. Now who's going to take care of this? Even more so when the health 
system is saturated.

It is the old policy implemented to close services, privatizing others, putting NGOs into 
government ministries and services, outsourcing and a whole set of variants whose 
objective is to broaden the role of private capital in public areas, financing with public 
funds To various private companies. That is, transferring money from the village to 
certain entrepreneurs. A policy that has at the moment, as a more scandalous example the 
delivery of Hospital Clinics to private capital PPP routes. Some public-and 
university-health services are being transferred to the private sphere.

The Reformation of the Military Box

The workers finance every year the deficit of the Military Fund, which for this will be 
around US $ 470 million. Inheritance of the dictatorship, military retirements are a 
privilege, since they have a special regime of benefits that no sector of workers enjoys. 
But in addition, it is scandalous to sustain an Armed Forces that spend annually 1% of 
GDP, or rather more than US $ 500 million. That is to say, that annually the Uruguayan 
people spend more than 1 billion dollars in an armed forces that for the only thing that 
have served is to repress the town and they still have to answer for the destiny of the 
disappeared ones. All that spending, can not be turned to popular housing, raise the 
standard of living of the poorest sectors, health, education, public services, generation 
of work?
But the military have defenders. There, former President Mujica left to demand a reform of 
the Military Organic Law. Mujica and the MPP put forward an issue that will not have a 
quick parliamentary resolution to safeguard the privileges of senior Armed Forces 
commanders and the policy of impunity. If it is almost impossible to place a tax on 
retired military personnel, who announced that they will not negotiate "not a millimeter", 
can anyone think that soon will modify the law governing the operations and organization 
of the Armed Forces? None of these things will count on the consensus of the military 
caste, of course. Therefore, the military - active and retired - will exert sufficient 
pressure to file both issues,

While all this happens, when the military has impunity guaranteed by the whole political 
establishment, when no progress is made in finding the truth of what happened during the 
dictatorship and much less progress is made in justice, a war budget is allocated to some 
armed forces Unnecessary. Is not it time to re-raise the dismantling of the armed forces?

The perspective is of struggle

There is no other: the perspective is of struggle. Against all the speeches that call for 
not to fight, not to mobilize, to "look after the government but turn the right", we must 
raise a perspective of prolonged combat, of Resistance in front of all this policy of 
delivery of the public to the private capital. Strengthen unions and grassroots 
organizations, with debate and participation of all workers, the same in student unions, 
call the struggle to all workers, students and the people in general, we are being 
affected by these anti-popular policies .
If the right returns to the government tomorrow it will be in the hands of the current 
government that opens the way to speeches and retrograde proposals, not because of the 
popular struggle. Therefore, in these moments of general unemployment of 24 hours, it is 
time to take measures on the street and go for more. Develop a fight plan for the months 
that follow. Consider mobilizations of size and also workplaces, develop the agitation 
necessary to spread the claims of grassroots organizations and put on the table the main 
problems that are being faced. The economic-social situation may be "auspicious" in 
numbers in the coming years, but it will not be reflected in the standard of living of the 
people. The wealth will be swallowed up by the above, by the bosses, the landowners, the 
bankers, Managers and multinationals. The only perspective is the fight, it is Resist!!

PRESPUESTO PARA PEOPLE!!

At Cordon Nordon Social Center, J. Requena 1758, Daniel Munoz corner, Montevideo. ---- 
Capital in its infinite voracity has been restructured, seeking to protect itself in a 
world that can no longer support its exploitation. As never before in the history of 
communities, human beings face a possible mass extermination. The destruction of nature at 
the service of capitalist greed will be the end result if the great domesticating 
enterprise is not detained. ---- The different struggles will have to pass, in the years 
to come, of a more or less visceral and customary discontent, to really project itself if 
we even want to survive. If before the choice of the owners of the world was the 
perpetuation of a meaningless life, the culture of hierarchies and exploitation, today the 
risk is much more serious. "Natural" systems fall.

Our choice and responsibility is the transformation of our lives, the transformation of 
individuals and communities. Our choice and responsibility is to trigger the social 
revolution. The destruction of the culture of exploitation and exploitation will not come 
again Machiavellianism, a new savior or another party that sells to us its altruistic 
benefits.

The only option is to rely on the human capacity to transform reality, to construct new 
ways of relating to our surroundings and ending the jailers. Life, based on mutual 
support, solidarity and freedom, is not only a dream achievable and worth fighting for, 
but a vital necessity.

In the task of creating ecologically and socially sustainable forms of coexistence, we 
must put a lot of will, financiers, bankers, politicians and the military will not abandon 
their privileges like this. The anarchists, the refractories, the revolutionaries, we know 
that good intentions do not suffice, but that you will have to fight. The world of 
exploitation is not only based on big lies and creation of stupid needs, but also on armed 
bodies that defend those who benefit from it. Our responsibility, then, is to annul its 
power by infecting new, more desirable possibilities.

We must promote action, proposals, social experimentation and create the moments to really 
question the existence of the world defended by the State. The fairs of the anarchist book 
are only parts of those moments that seek reflection and the collective creation of 
meanings. They are one more part of empowering the experiences of creating freedom here 
and now.

Faced with a continent that is increasingly militarized and stratified, facing a territory 
that is increasingly controlled, contaminated and closed in the service, we must respond 
firmly. Only the self-organization of people, based on free, pleasant, reciprocal and 
respectful forms of relationship, may oppose the increasingly centralized forces of 
financial capital. Only the courage to fight gives us the ability to write our destiny.

Organizing group Friday of the book Anarchist Montevideo.

Two dead and two wounded is the report of a labor accident that occurred Tuesday morning 
in the network of biological cleaning, near Pigon Square, in Skala, Lakonia. According to 
information, a 51-year-old Bulgarian national worker who was carrying out cleansing work 
in a biological waste water treatment plant, and a 37-year-old (working in a nearby 
store), who rushed to help 51-year-old when he lost consciousness. At the same time, a 
critical condition is hospitalized in ICU of Thriassi Elefsina Hospital, one of the two 
injured. He is a 22-year-old, who was transferred to the Sparta hospital in a comatose 
state with acute respiratory failure. According to hospital administrator Sotiris Botsio, 
the 22-year-old was cannulated directly and the doctors made efforts to suck up liquids 
from the lungs. The 66-year-old second injured was transferred to the hospital with 
moderate respiratory insufficiency and his state of health is judged by doctors to be 
stable and satisfactory.

************************

Workers' accidents are not accidents. Commentary on the death of two laborers in Skala, 
Lakonia

Autonomous Initiative Against the Slave

The nationality of the worker is not French, English, or German; the nationality of the 
worker is Labor, free slavery, self-selling. His government is not French, English, or 
German; the government of the worker is Capital. The air of his homeland is not the air of 
France, Germany or England; it is the air of the factory. The land belonging to him is not 
French, English or German; the land he belongs to is two meters below the earth.
Karl Marx, "The National System of Political Economy", 1845, "The National System of 
Political Economy", 1845

Tragic death found two workers and two others were poisoned when they arrived in the 
morning to carry out an obstruction work in a drainage pump shaft of the Municipality, 
yesterday, Tuesday, 1st August Skala Laconia.
Originally a 51-year-old Bulgarian worker lost his senses and eventually his life. Seeing 
him unconscious, a 37-year-old colleague of Greek descent descended to help him, But soon 
he also lost his senses from intense fumes and his life, and then the other two workers 
came to help them 66 and 22 years old respectively, and they also lost their senses.

In the meantime, however, the men who had been called and the two last survivors who had 
been transported and treated with poisoning at the Sparta General Hospital arrived at the 
point, but for the 22-year time that was considered more serious the situation was deemed 
necessary to be transferred to Athens Hospital.

This is the daily routine of the Greek Capital, where the absence of safety and hygiene 
measures meet the intensification and the absolute devaluation of the labor force. While 
the Greek tourism industry is making record profits, And the workers there are working 
with the most degrading wages, others are losing their lives in the summer August's laura 
in the worst working conditions.

This is the fate of the Greek Capital for thousands of workers, primarily immigrants, but 
also for those with Greek papers. Labor "accidents" are not accidents. Let us remember how 
many of them were left with their last breath, they were put to life for the rest of their 
lives, in the blacksmiths' quarters, with a tangible example of that of the 2004 Olympic 
Games (the golden age of Greek capitalism). How many others are daily struggling for their 
lives for a piece of bread. The real person responsible for the industrial accident in 
Skala Laconia is Greek capitalism itself.

This is the destiny for the workers of the world, regardless of their origin, sex, color, 
sexual orientation. But the universal demand for a world without classes and exploitation 
still haunts this unjust barbarous world until the final release of the human species And 
the beginning of his true history.
