events experienced during the last weeks of December, with the occupation of the Park American Indian and the taking of the 204 homes in Parque Avellaneda, weeks ago, serve to further reflection, that can address the situation, but also poses a vision of the city where a significant proportion of the locals, I would say the Most-dream, think and want.
The occupation of the site indicates what needs to be done, according to a horizon, but also that we have to raise the floor of the demands of popular sectors: in 2002, social demands were related to food and employment , in 2010, citizens with jobs and stable families seeking higher quality housing.
this situation unresolved, Macri appeals to xenophobia, racism and shovels, with a speech that expresses a variant Menem but radical. In keeping with the brigadier himself Cacciatore, who designed and implemented an inclusive city, preventing the development of public transport for workers, the beaches fill with debris Rio de la Plata, where thousands of people bathe on weekends and destroying the City Bank for the benefit of friends, curiosity and members of the armed forces. Macri, reproducing the model of the mayor of the dictatorship, closed the extension of the subway, undercapitalized City Bank, gives millions of dollars to the church through their schools, discriminates against the people of the villages and subejecuta the construction budget housing.
Throughout 2010, the Housing Institute of the City (IVC) just ran its budget by 44.5 percent, as if the city did not have problems in this area. And not only that, if we compare the performance data over the past three years, we realize that for PRO administration, housing is far from being a priority. Performance data (81.87 percent in 2008, 56.75 in 2009 and 44.59 in 2010) plotted the management clearly getting worse every year.
During this political cycle, the governments of Nestor and Cristina Kirchner has built more homes than any other in history: 550 000 housing solutions, 250 thousand in implementation. With respect to the city, in 2010 the nation contributed 460 million pesos for the construction of housing.
A city solidarity with migrants friendly, inclusive and multicultural would be the best way for the locals live better. No walls to exclude certain sectors, because that way would not make bricks to build them. Although it anyway, to make bricks and walls that do need workers.
Also, if you bet on a city government to create wealth and bet on growth instead of exclusion and marginalization, the city will require the work of citizens from within, from our sister countries and in the same city have the vocation for the work, creativity and social inclusion, economic and cultural.
Our country is made with indigenous peoples and also with class migration social countries at that time were very bad. There are two models for dealing with immigration: the Macri, similar to Cacciatore, mayor of '76 to '82, and many cities in the world with respect, tolerance, assimilation, learning, enrichment. Argentina needs a capital city that grows on par with the nation, without xenophobia, without discrimination, with an interventionist state, controller and popular. We need an open city inside and outside our country, creating wealth, value-added production, knowledge, creativity and innovation. There is a humanist position itself (we stand), but also an economic and cultural model that allows us to live better, leave a better city for our children and be part of a caring society.
Macri policy is not only reprehensible from an ethical standpoint, is not only inefficient. It is also profoundly stupid, because appealing to rationality we understand that if we included all live better.
