This PSOE will end up being a minority because it abandoned social democracy
When the government does not allow citizens to earn a living, power’s ambitions prevail over national interest; citizens are artificially confronted; freedom and property are not respected, nor is life. The situation becomes unsustainable and inevitable confrontation comes, as in 1936. The country had to be rebuilt after what the Spanish Civil War then destroyed. Internal emigration was considerable. Hundreds of thousands of some of the best Spaniards emigrated in the 1950s and 1960s from south to north, from west to east. The strained postwar generation lived unimaginable scarcities. They were willing to work hard and knew what it took to earn a living. Their children made the effort. We had to be “outstanding” to be given grants. We love our country because devotion follows effort. We understand that we progress if we make the effort, and opportunities of prosperity are not the same everywhere. The postwar generation’s children, the baby-boom (BB) generation, are about to retire. We represent more than 33% of the electoral roll. Our vote decides governments. Many have “leftwing” thoughts about sharing public services and territorial equality. Yet individual equality cannot exist without territorial equality. Being an honest socialist and governing with separatists is contradictory. Millions of the Spaniards born of emigrants voted the moderate socio-democratic left, which is why Felipe González’s PSOE governed from 1982 to 1996. For the Orwellian PSOE of Zapatero and Sánchez, reaching power implies using propaganda, lies, hiding one’s identity, manipulating education. It appropriates mass media. It confronts and divides citizens. It allies with separatists by increasing territorial inequality. It represents neither the patriotic left nor democracy. Two decades ago it abandoned socio-democracy, but not openly by hiding its present identity, which has nothing to do with González’s socio-democratic PSOE. It hides its identity so that the confused who voted González still vote it. Confrontation, division and no excitement in its messages void of arguments against the so-called “extreme rightwing” for defending national unity and freedom. This PSOE with its totalitarian willingness believes that it owns the country. No-one learned who favours territorial equality should vote it. Most Spaniards value territorial equality (today the per capita income of the three wealthiest Spanish communities is 80% higher than that of the three poorest), public services for everyone, freedom and a common official language. Today’s PSOE is a job-placement agency, with no professional management experts, members without professional experience or exciting or moral messages. They ally with anyone to be in power and live from it by squandering the State with confiscating taxes. The postwar generation’s grandchildren have no qualifications and jobs, or have badly-paid jobs. They cannot afford to leave home or earn a living in a State with a public sector that has gone too far and an intervened economy of which 52% of its GDP is public. At the same time, the manufacturing fabric is dismantled and all kinds of professionals are lacking. Everything is imported from Asia, which spells unemployment here. The Spanish birth rate has been negative for one decade, with no help for families. “Empty Spain” is abandoned and depressed, while socialist separatism spreads throughout 24% of the national territory (Valencian Community, Balearics, Galicia). The law, division of powers, freedom are not respected. Homes are occupied with impunity and history is changed.
Today PSOE is sustained by media, which adulterate reality. It only represents radical antipatriotic people and deceives everyone. Unnecessary political parties with no agglutinative morale tend to disappear in democracy. A new different, exciting, democratic, patriotic leftwing party is necessary; one with clear limits regarding separatists that does not confront citizens. If it emerges, it will replace this PSOE that does not represent many of those who still vote it, deceived because the trees of its lies and its propaganda do not let them see the wood of its totalitarianism. Spain’s ruin depends on votes for PSOE from voters who vote a party that no longer exists.
