The position of the Spanish Government in the face of the financial and economic crisis could be said as desired. But no one can say that their anti-crisis policies are “electoralist.” It can lead to a loss of power. He has already said: “I will carry out reforms and measures to overcome the crisis at all costs.” On the other hand, the other right-wing parties in the opposition – mainly the PP, the CIU and the PNV – are the ones who are carrying out “electoral policies”. In fact, the same reforms against the crisis of Zapatero would make them not more drastic and worse. The fact is that, in the face of the elections, it is better for the right-wing parties to pretend to be “representatives” of workers, pensioners, public officials and the unemployed. Zapatero is now being loyal to the financial markets, which demand a price on the sovereign debt of the Spanish state. The right-wing opposition would still be more loyal and complicit with these markets! What hypocrisy and Phariseism of the Spanish, Catalan and Basque right!

Zapatero represents the social democratic party and has betrayed its ideological principles, being so loyal to the financial markets. It has pushed her to the extreme “at all costs.” In fact, it could have taken less engraving measures for the workers’ and people’s sectors and more harsh measures for businessmen and bankers. For the time being, it has left the consequences of the crisis only at the expense of the workers and the popular sectors. We are waiting to see what it does with taxes for the richest, if it distributes the burden of the current crisis. And above all, let’s see what it does to eradicate tax havens, where countless sums of money from the Spanish State and the Basque Country can settle the debt that overwhelms us. That the crisis costs more to those who have more!
