The real polarization is generated for the unfair distribution of income: opulence and poverty


In all media, journalists excluded from the multi-million benefits they obtained from the presidency of the Republic, PEMEX, IMSS, ISSSTE and CFE get tired of talking about the polarization that, according to them, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador generates. Only with the limity capacity for reflection can this false and manipulated assertion be taken seriously.

Any moderately informed person knows well that the division of a society can never, at any time, anywhere in the world be caused by a person, no matter how much popular leadership (there are also leaders in the elite) that they have, because it is not a phenomenon caused of an individual construction, as with simplicity, but with bias it is widely disseminated in the mainstream media.

The society have been divided into classes since the disappearance of primitive comunism, but at present, in the case of México, this separation of interests was exacerbated as a direct result of the neoliberal model adopted as a State policy from the government of Miguel de la Madrid Hurtado, accentuated to levels of fundamentalism by that of Enrique Peña Nieto.

Neoliberalism is predatory and its most pernicious consequences are precisely the brutal concentration of wealth and the expansion of poverty. In this stage or phase of savage capitalism every day the rich are less, compared to the entire population, but they are much wealthier than before.

On the other hand, the poor are much more than before and are poorer than in the past. And that is the true polarization of Mexican society or national community, as sociologists also say. And it is not the product of the morning statements of President López Obrador, as ignorance, resentment or bad faith asserts to the slightest provocation or even without provocation.

The country would not have problems if the polarization was caused by the President´s sayings, because it would be enough to put a closure in the mouth and stop talking to be solved, but things are not that simple, as they crudely present them with obvious intent who benefited from the corruption of the neoliberal period.

The true polarization is expressed in a reality that translated into data indicates according to the ECLAC UN agency the following: one percent of the small group of the richest in the country remain 22 percent of the total income of all Mexicans . If this is not polarization, I don't know what they call polarization.

Another ECLAC measurement indicates that in 1970 Mexican employees obtained 37 percent of the value of goods and services (GDP), but already in 2016 that percentage had been reduced to 26 percent. This polarization in the distribution of wealth is inconvenient for the stability and governance of the nation.

Now, if they confuse polarization with bitterness, it is the journalists of the national media who generate and promote it as part of the strategy of the business right to restore the economic model that enriched it. (To be continue)
