We did not notice what's going


A lot of people outraged by taking squares and other street rallies. But hearing his proclamations and slogans, it seems as if their troubles were due to four well-heeled and to put things around enough to solve them.

Many more outraged us in conversations with friends and neighbors and criticized some politicians, foolish, ignorant or corrupt, as appropriate, to continue voting unfailingly.

Then, of course, are those who suffer in their flesh the drama of unemployment and despair of not knowing if they'll have a job. And now that's the real tragedy.

But all, each other, we hear our leaders, like Rodriguez Zapatero, said that since "we are out of the crisis" and that is envision "green shoots" on the roadside. Those who aspire to his relief, as Mariano Rajoy, we promise that everything will be as before and that "no health copayment" for example, or other "social cuts".

Evil is that our politicians in office lied to, but worse is that we do not we learn that they are doing.

Only the day no longer have responsibilities, some of them timidly approaching the truth, as former Minister of Health of Valencia, Manuel Cervera, who just said that the health system can break down within months. Very few do so while still in the macho, as Artur Mas, who justifies his government cuts to "Catalonia is not falling over the precipice."

Everyone else knows that our future is more than bleak, but hypocritically hide it. Professor Santiago Nino anticipated five years ago the coming crisis in his lucid book The Crash of 2010, where eye-explanatory "depression following the consequent can be extended to 2020."

To make your hair stand on end. All that, because "the world has been too many years squandering resources" and now "we have to eat what you really need."

Above, in Spain, things can get worse than other countries, said in their predictions, because of our intensive and labor, which generates little added value and makes us more dependent on foreign markets and credit.

That is, no matter what politicians say they know better than anyone that we live much worse, and should, damn it, that we prepare for it.
