Why the rage?
José Antonio Almazán
Against Mexican Electricians Union (SME) has unleashed a campaign of lynching so huge that motivates the question: why such fury? With a collective labor contract for real and a democracy based on general assemblies and universal suffrage, secret and direct election of its leaders, the EMS is almost a dream for millions of workers in Mexico who lack organization union, or live under the control of unionism charril. What this reflects the visceral hatred, beginning with Calderon and his pianist, to crush the SME and 45 thousand workers and 22 thousand pensioners?, With a combined operating brutal use of police force, systematic violation of constitutional rights, trampling Federal Labor Law and labor standard agreed between the parties.
inventions and lies to extinguish Calderón Luz y Fuerza del Centro (LFC) can not be hidden with a media campaign. The fundamental problem the company is buying power in bulk to the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE). We sell expensive energy and finance the obligation to sell at a price below it.
So any company has losses. Moreover, in recent years, the LFC budget, deliberately, coming down, preventing the modernization of its equipment and facilities. Workers, their wages and benefits, to which Calderon calls privileged and costly not represent even 15 percent of net electricity sales.
The fury of Calderon, who is quick to say they will not touch or Elba Esther Gordillo Romero Deschamps has to do with a business for which the EMS is a hindrance. This is the multi-billion dollar called triple play. It turns out that the electricity networks and the optical fiber, comprising over 30 000 km 100 on CFE and LFC thousand, and are more extensive and powerful telecommunications infrastructure that monopolizes the second richest man in the world can be used, through appropriate technology , to transmit image and voice data (television, Internet and telephony).
The fight between Slim, Azcarraga, Gil Diaz and English Telefonica, and WL Communications involving Fernando Canales and Ernesto Martens, two renowned entrepreneurs in addition to PAN were secretaries of Energy with Vicente Fox, is tough but civilized, to see who gets concessions electricity networks and fiber optics, which represent a negociazo of billions of dollars. What we do not support a union is commoner has been made in the last revision of the collective bargaining agreement that LFC, as well as leasing of its electricity networks in the most promising of the center of the country (by its concentration of population and income level) can also be concession to provide triple play service to millions of Mexican free.
The rage has to do with a supernegocio, who was not invited the people of Mexico. Those who already rubbing their hands with the concessions do not aspire to use the triple play to improve and strengthen education services, health, housing, recreation and culture to 36 million Mexican households, as noted in an article in El Periódico. Think about the huge profits that will usufruct grids belonging to the Mexican nation.
The rage against the SMEs are businesses, which is no stranger Javier Lozano, since it passes through the Cofetel. But in this class hatred is also the political vendetta against a democratic union, nationalist, who in 1999 opposed the privatization of the electricity industry in 2008 with the privatization of oil, and since its inception, in December 1914 - has been linked to the best causes of the people of Mexico. The strike is against the people.
