They approve constitutional changes on the minimum wages

México. -   The senate approved yesterday December 14th, 2014, modifications to the minute on the new law of the rail service, with the vote against PRD, PT and it shares of PAN who they considered that the big interests of the biggest railroad companies were imposed, among their Grupo Mexico, property of German Larrea that will continue monopolizing that sector. The final voting went from 71 votes to favor and 12 in against, and the document was returned to the Chamber of Deputies, because some modifications were made that are not of bottom. One of the 60 verdicts that were approved in this Sunday session, the penultimate of the period of sessions was. Regarding the law of the rail service, senator Dolores Padierna (PRD), and Francisco Burquez Valenzuela (FBV) of PAN they coincided in interventions for separate before the full one that the Senate retained 10 months the document of the Chamber of Deputies, but it doesn't stop to perfect the law, but to introduce the changes that the managers of that industry lobbied with an eye toward maintaining their benefits, without stopping to press in any moment.   Padierna pointed out that the possibility was eliminated of opening that sector to the competition and they stay untouchables the concessions that were granted until for 50 years, in spite of the fact that its executives have not fulfilled the responsibility that they acquired. When eliminating licensee's figure it stays the monopoly in three concessionaires. Group Mexico, Ferromex, and Kansas City Southern Mexico, companies that are responsible that there is not investment in the sector, for what the rail net has hardly grown 0.6 percent from 2006. Also they are abandoned the most important routes, as the rail net Mexico -Toluca, in spite of the fact that the rates have been increased 57 percent in only seven years.  Legislator FVB said that he got lost the opportunity to transform to the rail sector into development motor when being allowed that the monopoly persists. The sector, added, “it was not well privatized because it was made for the friends. The railroad industry only cares the load of cared grains, the transport of automobiles and of minerals, because there it has its business. It doesn't interest them to take in their cars avocados from Michoacan to Chicago."     As long as, the president of the Commission of Communications and Transports - Larrea’s cat -, Javier Lozano Alarcon who negotiated the changes that benefit to the monopoly, directly affirmed that the figure of licensees was eliminated to give artificial certainty to the investors of the sector, besides offering benefits to the population, as the creation of the National Fund of Security for Rail Cruzes, with federal, state and municipal resources. The full of the senate approved changes to the official document proposed by the legislators of the PAN, Hector Larios and Salvador Vega Casillas, so that the agency of rail transport that will create carries out the registration of rates, but also of the positions for fuel or interconnection, so that there are not undue costs against the users. During the session of the senate it supported Adriana Davila's work (PAN) president of the Commission of it is about people’s trade who it has been attacked in the social nets and in the media with “slanders and lies for an organization that enriches with victims of people’s trade”. The topic took out it to glitter the president of the Commission for the Equality of Gender, Diva Hadamira Gastelum (PRI); it was added Angelica de la Pena (PRD) who asked that the full one emitted a pronouncement. Jorge Luis Preciado underlined: "We´ll lean on to Adriana Davila to put in their place to Rosa Orozco, author of the attacks". Senate in full activity requested to the competent authorities to emit a resolution attached to right in Nestora Salgado's case, “bear in mind the international principles and the applicable legislations as regards the natives' human rights". In commissions two constitutional reformations were approved: the one that liberates the minimum wage of indicators of tickets overcharges, housing payments and ponies, and a more envelope to delimit the debts of states and municipalities. Both they will be voted today before the full one.     The bribe to EPN and Videgaray  The current emanated federal government of the PRI, Mexico suffers an illness called “dirty place of pigs and great corruption", affirmed Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) who considered that they are examples of such a situation, “bribes that Enrique Pena Nieto (EPN) and the secretary of Hacienda Luis Videgaray, they received from the building Armando Hinojosa Cantu (HIGA) in exchange for public works in the current administration and when they were in the Mexico State government". The leader of Morena sustained that the “politics economic neoliberal is good to transfer goods from the nation to matters, like they are those close of the current of the PRI; Saline Carlos of Gortari and EPN that belong to a clique of ruffians, while the town of Mexico has been left with the empty hands", and clearly the situation reveals us when having the petroleum in its hands already has more than 35 years receiving a wage misery the Mexicans. At Sierra of Chiapas, he  added that it knows all “those filths well” and he said that when EPN was governor of the Mexico State it built a hospital more expensive 20 times that the one that was built in Iztapalapa in the time in that he was government's boss of the Mexico City.    In accordance with the ideologist of Morena, the current government federal delivery the whole energy package because in December of 2013 it modified the articles 25, 27 and 28 of the Constitution to privatize the petroleum, the gas, the petrochemical one and the national electric industry. He assured that it fights “to maintain lit the flame of the hope and to insist until achieving a true change, because it won't be an exit neither like town neither like nation, if the corrupt régime continues, of injustices and privileges; one can no longer wait anything good of this government, because if before everything went not well now everything it has worsened", and the neighbors that it could not worsen. Some ignoramuses said, who are made call governments, it continued, “they are bandits and they apply a pillage politics and looting", -mentioning Leon Tolstoy -, in the sense that a government that doesn't offer justice is not more than a band of malefactors, and “those they are those that wrong governs for some time to the country, because they don't care the town."   On the other hand we are to some days that the National Commission of the minimum wages (Conasami, for their initials in Spanish) they fix a precarious general minimum wage, with the argument that “they should be responsible with the economy of the country", and this for thirty years. They owe us the 30 year-old late productivity and in the 90 it blunted the construction of import cars and the workers have not been reflected this productivity in their wages. We are the Latin American nation that on the whole exports goods and consumption products more than all the industries manufacturers of Latin America on the whole -to exception from Brazil -, and anything, we continue with the same wage misery day after day. The Chamber of Deputies approved to leave of indexer the wage with tickets, and other concepts of Treasury to liberate it of ties and to impel the internal consumption. Both organisms won't strengthen the purchasing power to the seven million workers that win a daily minimum wage and to those more than 11 that win more than one and up to two (INEGI, federal organism). Several and complicated they are mainly the problems that rotate around this topic, of a labor class controlled by their directing, and also alienated bad of the soccer and absent of this important topic, and with a Conasami that takes years impoverishing to the labor class and enriching to the national and outsiders oligarchy, all that which is increased by the fact that president Basilio Gonzalez Nuñez takes 25 years to the front of this Commission, winning 186 thousand 667 dollars annual, a true insult to the town of Mexico.
