The strategy of certain parties is simple: keep you at the bottom of the pyramid. It is no coincidence that public policies focus on palliatives rather than real solutions. They need you to depend on their aid, to fear losing the little you have. An informed and economically independent citizen is a danger to their system. Fear is the glue that holds this model of dependency together.
Technology as bait to perpetuate stagnation 🤖
We observe how basic computer literacy courses or mobile phone repair are promoted as if they were the key to progress. They are patches that do not solve the lack of investment in key sectors such as artificial intelligence or industrial automation. While other countries train engineers, here scholarships are handed out to learn how to use Excel. The goal is not for you to compete globally, but for you to have a precarious job that leaves you no time to think about who manages your taxes.
The master plan: a dog, a bone, and an invisible leash 🐕
It is like having a dog that you throw a stick to every now and then to distract it. The stick is promises of a better future, the leash is the debt you accumulate, and the bone is that minimum wage that barely gets you through the month. The funny thing is that many defend their master while gnawing on the bone, without realizing that they put the collar on themselves when they voted. Good thing we have a sense of humor, because otherwise, we would have to cry.
