Citizens\u2019 emotional exhaustion in the light of four electoral processes in four years is tangible if you go past bars or street chats. Not for politicians, even if they no longer show off their summer suntan and keep a straight face. The most evident consequence would be a high number of abstentions and the electorate\u2019s demobilisation, but this does not seem to worry the parties\u2019 leaders who- without doing self-criticism of their administration- will once more lead the candidacy for President of the Government. And, with them, indiscriminately- except from any great surprise- the hosts who have been following them in this anomalous situation for a 20th<\/sup> century\u2019s democracy.<\/p>\n

Perhaps, a change of members, will liven up the political scheme. And, because they have copied from football even the transfers market mechanic, they can take a step forward and turnover staff and trainers, but, actually, neither football clubs nor football matches belong to social mass, but to the same landowner or oligopoly.<\/p>\n

What would be ethical is that a politician public credit ended the same day that they prove he is lying- but watch out, I do not mean changing the criteria in basis of a different political or economic situation-, or he is unable to negotiate. For too long had they dived into the newspaper library to teach lessons on journalistic objectivity and euphemisms to analyse a candidate\u2019s attitude. What really matters is the accomplishment of their electoral programme, and that is something that nowadays is commonly less analysed. Instead it is given more importance to what they say rather than what they do. And that is the conducive atmosphere to the democratic degradation we are currently living.<\/p>\n

When politicians are in deep water, or foresee an adverse economic context, the answer is normally drawn on public expenses (in case they are part of the Government) or to the promises to cut taxes and wages improvement (if they are part of the opposition). These are two measures that, more often than not, have the same duration as the pre-election campaign, more or less. We can take, as an example, Zapatero\u2019s E plan or the abundant decree-laws that are not included in Rajoy\u2019s and Sanchez\u2019s budget, weeks and even days before to the election campaign. And even with an already started campaign, as an exercise of contempt for fair-play and morals.<\/p>\n

There are hundreds of examples but let me focus my attention on one of those old-school politicians that, under his moderated appearance, gives free reins to the other government members to do their ideological looting, while he always keeps the economic control wild card. In other words, the public box funds. This is a way to find additional funding for the campaign when they need it- which turns to be always-, without being given friendly fire for it.<\/p>\n

Not after 48 hours since they lose the Andalusian regional elections; and, with Susana\u2019s D\u00edaz political corpse blurring Ximo Puig\u2019s aspirations to repurpose his \u201cmolt honorable\u201d position, the already then President of the Generalitat invigorated a plan against the financial exclusion of the Valencian Community small boroughs to do a series of visits such as Mr. Marshall bringing- again- money to more than 250 Valencian villages that\u00a0 had run out of liquidity, thanks to the bank restructuring and, let\u2019s be frank here, a lot of politics\u2019 mugs.<\/p>\n

There is no best Plan than the virtual one, it is not in the Generalitat Valenciana budget and it hasn\u2019t got a bidding process yet. How can better propaganda be done?. Anyway, if we will implement it, it would be 5 more million euros we do not know where to take from, but they will be part of the fair financial list and at the expense of the regional budget\u2019s illusory income.<\/p>\n

The central proposal of the Plan against the financial exclusion of the small boroughs of the Valencian Community was- and still is- to put an ATM machine in each of the villages that lack of a bank branch. So far so good. This is a needed measure, if we want to keep up with the commercial activity in these villages.<\/p>\n

If the Consell\u2019s and the Instituto Valenciano de Investigaciones Econ\u00f3micas\u2019 data are correct, the banking offices\u2019 network in the Valencian Community has decreased by 48% since 2008, a tendency that has incremented by 13% the Valencian citizens that live in villages where there is not a bank branch in 2017, that is to say, 248 villages without banking offices.<\/p>\n

More than 95 boroughs showed their interest in having an ATM machine in their villages, with an estimated maintenance and operating cost of 10000 euros yearly per machine. In such a way, before starting the project there is already a forecast of a more than one million euros\u2019 investment yearly, in a five year assumed plan. And there are other 150 boroughs that have not decided yet. Therefore, reckon the value.<\/p>\n

You probably think that I have a fixation about Mr. Puig but that is not true. What happens is that Ximo repurposed a coalition government with Comprom\u00eds and is again president of the Generalitat. And, unable to meet de demands of a fair financial deal with the Valencian Community, although he at last coincides with a \u201cred\u201d central government, our \u201cmolt honorable\u201d relapsed. His justification has been the harsh effects of the DANA in Alicante and the south of Valencia, which coincide, by the way, with a new general elections\u2019 promotion.<\/p>\n

Our prominent political strategist has claimed a Marshall plan for the Valencian Community. The question is who this message was intended to, because I do not see neither Trump worrying about a non- American territory nor Ximo Puig mimicking Pepe Isbert singing \u201cOs recibimos americanos con alegr\u00eda. Ol\u00e9 mi madre, ol\u00e9 mi suegra y ol\u00e9 mi t\u00eda\u201d\u2026 Actually, this is a palpable prove that, in times of political crisis, lack of action and allocating money from the public box funds are the only measures known by our politicians.<\/p>\n

Citizens do not matter and, unfortunately, neither the famers, breeders, traders nor industrialists who have lost everything. What matters is who they will vote, of whom they will have better memories on the 10th<\/sup> of November. So vile has been transformed the so-called public service that our politicians offer. Whoever manages to appear as the saviour has a lot to win in foreseeable elections. And those who are right now in the government are a step ahead because they can use the public box funds.<\/p>\n

We already know the answer to the request of Marshall\u2019s plan, the Finance minister, M\u00aa Jes\u00fas Montero, has offered Ximo Puig a loan- advance money of the extraFLA of 250 million of euros\u2026 wait, but\u2026 this was not possible 10 days ago, according to a report from government lawyers. Maybe now, when it is impossible to hide the campaign elections, even if the deputies have not said goodbye, right now it is time to allocate virtual money\u2026 but only to the autonomies that coincide with the appropriate colour. Anyway, it is only another promise, which does not appear in any budget or in any decree-law.<\/p>\n

Clearly Puig does not govern alone. Therefore, lacking a minister, all of them have found their leading role thanks to the Valencian people\u2019s public box funds. There is Rub\u00e9n Martinez Dalmau and his damages inspection and evaluation unity which depends on the autonomic secretary of Bioclimatic Arquitecture and Energetic Sustainability. In other words, 130 technicians who will go house-to-house evaluating and appraising damages, a gift to Podem which do not expected C\u00edscar and Mata in the Botanic\u2019s II negotiation.<\/p>\n

Having noticed Dalmau\u2019s unexpected leading role, Comprom\u00eds tries not to lag behind. Through Senator Carles Mulet, they have accused the Hydrographic Confederations of inactivity, ignoring the responsibility of \u2018el Consell\u2019. And the Botanic\u2019s II agreement starts with several pages about climate change and sustainable mobility, but no mention is made to the consequences of allowing housing constructions in floodable zones, and the necessary infrastructure\u2019s suitability to avoid overflows.<\/p>\n

This explains why, currently, 136 Valencian boroughs are at risk of flood, and it is still permitted to build housing in flood-prone areas, and there are many intended projects of Antirriada\u2019s plan (PGRI) still to be implemented.\u00a0 Issues that are also responsibility of a \u2018Consell\u2019 that, keep that in mind, has been 4 years in the government, and one with Sanchez in the Moncloa.<\/p>\n

And we have not mentioned M\u00f3nica Oltra. She has worn the face of the ad\u2019s launching- in a maximum term of 2 weeks- of her own aids\u2019 decree- which is also the same as the Consell\u2019s one- giving to the mayors 45 days to evaluate damages and submit a report to the autonomic administration, just, just before foreseeable elections.<\/p>\n

And we continue with the old-politic tics, while farmers, breeders and other people will have to resort to the \u2018Consorcio de Compensaci\u00f3n de Seguros\u2019, as long as they have a private insurance policy. Public funds, if they do, will play hard to get until February or March, when the public state box will be opened again. Of course, the caretaker government\u2019s and its autonomous delegation\u2019s virtual funds is going to feature on the magazines covers and the news.<\/p>\n

To sum up, declaring catastrophic zone in order to the executive to speed the grant\u2019s procedure; and, moreover, providing adequate resources to tender immediately the necessary works to rebuild the basic infrastructures may be the best electoral opportunity for S\u00e1nchez. But the caretaker government\u2019s president is more worried about justifying the elections as a socialist blockade from the left and right parties, than worrying about the future of those who have been affected by the \u2018DANA\u2019. He already knows that his seat in the Congress will be there at Christmas. Other people will not even have money to afford eating nougat.<\/p>\n
