It’s not Martinelli’s fault, that’s an excuse / opium is something else

The problem that embodies social classes, historically, has always been to define who is on top and who distributes or distributes against who is below. We called the one above Government and the one below we call it the City. Village he votes to appoint someone to the government and the government collapses, does whatever comes to mind or whatever it wants against the people.

Meanwhile, the poor, the rich, the professionals, etc. are debating about conquering the government. Thus the so-called social classes, understood as lower, middle and upper social class, live in a constant diatribe and a permanent discussion about the idea of ​​how to get to power. In this diatribe, those who least understand the game of power, such as it is politics is moving, unfortunatelyis, unfortunately, people Since the rich are the ones who have media whores, that is, the media takes information or news as suits them best and fits their political interests.

This news of information is marinated peas of the most low class: hatred, anger, trauma, fraud, envy, jealousy, suspicionbitterness and frustration, but beware, it all boils down to the idea of ​​maintaining control over political power, since only through said power can the perks and crops of power be guaranteed, as well as the preservation of wealth.

It is not for nothing that the state is the number one employer, but also the generator of wealth par excellence. So, it is a matter of someone coming to power who is a guarantor of that wealth, who is a guarantor of the generation of greater wealth for certain sectors of the economy, such as businessmen, and not someone who, with populist and pro-national slogans, implements an agenda that is exclusive to those class interests. the powerful and rulers of the economic world through business activities.

One should be careful, no doubt, with those who in Panama articulate the false discourse that corruption is concentrated in one citizen and that that citizen must pay for all the mistakes and all the sins of corruption, before, during and after it. Now it turns out that corruption was invented by one man, that it was applied by that one citizen, and thus those who brought this country to a scenario of various inequalities, concluding with the refrain that in Panama every day the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer, are left out. William Hughes and Quintero are right cwhen they wrote a work entitled “Who owns Panama? A work that fully depicts how the interests of the rich class and oligarchs of our country are articulated, as links in the same chain, both from the beginning of the Republic and before it. How come they got rich living off state prebendalism, acquiring large tracts of land for pittance, buying government property for pittance when their costs were in the millions; to take part in any tender or administrative concession in the state and have as a rule a disgusting distribution which the little friends of power now called those of the “zero circle” must always favor. Hughes recently stated: “(…) Funds coming from activities Canal, the main public company in the country, end up filling the gap left by millions of dollars in taxes that big business “wouldn’t pay”.

Plain and simple things it must be said loud and clear: Martinelli Corruption is neither the cause nor the culprit, it is a childish excuse with which the business class, big companies, traditional and new oligarchs of the country, in agreement with the government, are angry at a citizen who had a criminal trial for reasons typical of a purely commercial transaction, that is, private.

However, media sluts don’t say that people, as something that should be important to us and concern usis that the balance of the public debt at the end of the first quarter of 2023 was 45,898.71 million dollars, which represents an increase of 1,624.69 million dollars compared to the end of December 2022. In such a short time, the increase was 3.67 percent.

This was stated in the quarterly report State, development and risk of public financing of the Republic of Panama. The question would be: Who are the ones who took so much money here, and that without the international financial and monetary organizations to which we almost owe our lives as Panamanians? Whose wealth grew during the pandemic in marriage or in collusion with the government? Who were the real beneficiaries of the purchase of alleged medical supplies to fight the pandemic?

I repeat: Martinelli That’s not the cause, that’s the excuse. They don’t want it, those same business sectors and oligarchs are getting their way again political power as president. They even accuse him of messing with them in his first term, forcing them to pay taxes. Everything will have to be done to prevent him from reaching the presidency. That’s their logic. There is no morality or ethics there. And, unfortunately, there are those who believe those who articulate the discourse of media whores in the hands of the powerful and rich in the country and abroad. God bless the country!
