BETRAYAL AND DECEIT BOLIVIAN WORKERS
The city of La Paz, the seat of the State Government of Bolivia, looks like a besieged city, exploding sticks of dynamite, blocking the streets by workers for more than two weeks, blocked roads and marched in protests 9 departmental capitals of Bolivia. Why
Bolivian workers take these measures?
for higher wages, because the purchasing power of their incomes have fallen. Inflation in 2010 was 7.18% and inflation of the last 12 months to March 2011 has reached 11.11%. Naturally, these statistics do not reflect the true price increase, the National Statistics Institute (INE) manipulate the statistics and the population no longer believes in such information.
"However, what means that official statistics indicate that inflation in the past 12 months has reached 11.11%?
This means that the offer of the Government of President Evo Morales to increase 10% to some groups of workers is not enough, inflation already "eaten" the wage increase.
The Government is asking workers to be told of where to get those funds to the wage increase. For five years the government of President Evo Morales on irresponsibly managed 430 billion bolivianos or about 61 billion dollars. During those five years did not ask anyone to make suggestions for how to use those resources and now millionaires should increase salaries and wages, changes position, cheat workers and asks them to suggest that funding sources.
The government of President Evo Morales should be serious and respond to workers without asking them to indicate the source of financing and managing public resources, just as powerful.
The request of the Government's intention, want workers to be stewards of unpopular economic measures they must take to cover the fiscal deficit.
Is
predicted fiscal deficit?
Yes, the June 24, 2010, alertábamos the people of Bolivia that the Government would have a budget deficit of $ 650 million (see The Journal June 24, 2010, Third Corps, page 2: "diesel subsidy can cause a fiscal deficit), six months after the December 26, 2010 the government of President Evo Morales approved the Supreme Decree No. 748, the justification was that the country spent $ 660 million for gasoline and diesel. We were wrong in 10 million dollars. We are again warning
now again warn the people of Bolivia, the Government must take unpopular economic measures to cover the fiscal deficit and more reason to pay the salary increase, so we want to engage workers for them to assume the political responsibility of the new economic measures to be taken .
The responsibility for the economic situation is the government of President Evo Morales, only he should look for sources of funding for salary increases, it is not ethical or moral, that the Government decides spending irresponsibly 430 000 Bolivian million for five years and now has committed resources, principally in non-productive expenditure, appeal to workers so that they assume the political cost of economic measures.
