After listening carefully to the televised debate of the candidates for President of Chile held a couple of days ago, further reaffirms my conviction that we need a drastic change. Much of public opinion today and disengage incredulous that tangled and thorny world a priori shown in policy as long is directing its preferences to the bad reasoning "less bad." It seems that the two major political coalitions in the country are well aware of that, and therefore do not even bother to prepare their own flag with a schema that contains concrete proposals and based on the most obvious problems. The thing is decanted to recover the votes of the cats kids. An uncomfortable subject as is the desire to continue privatizing was overlooked by everyone except the only candidate who is openly against such raids on Chilean resources: Arrate. Other very serious issues, such as Chilean-Indian conflict-business not even mentioned. The Mapuche are Chile, it seems.
omissions, distortions and bald lies: with such a cocktail, the act of deciding who to vote becomes confusing for the average Chilean citizen, the same that has been bombed for three decades with a speech of unipolarity, consumer for consumption, production by production, of disengagement from politics and the abolition of civil society. Worse for the baby post-Berlin Wall and would vote for the first time. That's why no part of real change from earlier policies when structures are obviously flawed. They were raped, mutilated and brutally reconfigured from late seventies (the hand of Chicago students and Piñera, the same that have precipitated the current crisis with his speculative theology). Then, the Concertación governments have done nothing but continue the tradition of converting the state into a guarantor helpful and moved the efforts that large consortia are in the territory, resources and national souls.
Pantomime that there is freedom in elections is frankly insulting. There is a taste unpleasant kind McDemocracy policy. It can not be truly representative system that installs visible options to move ahead first to benefit the richest in the country, as has been done for a long time. Therefore, if the system provides mediocre candidates, it is necessary that supposedly represented the people, workers and peasants, all we overcome the inertia inherited from the dictatorship and begin to organize to regain the Chilean State. If the equipment is too rotten, it may be necessary to recast autonomy and courage, and this part to reject the existing provision of elections. Formerly the old saw young people the impetus to make the society something even better, today, the youth must show that masses are not anesthetized, and not the older generation, but to ourselves and the future that we will soon to take charge. This time more than ever we must all express the rejection of electoral theater, learning from past mistakes, take the reins of history and rule on what we want. Failure to follow the game is a first and crucial step that indicates that another world is possible.
