Macroeconomic solutions to Microeconomics

The lack of solid solutions and effective European leaders to stop the economic crisis is putting at risk the finances of the Eurozone, as Europe has a serious problem when making a decision loud and clear to tackle this crisis root has made sick by the European socio-economic system, "Capitalism," a system based on consumption as key economic hub and to work requires a solid welfare state and efficient to maintain a middle class as the main tool of growth, that without consumers, there is no consumption consumption and capitalism drowning for lack of liquidity.

To solve the problems there have been meetings within the EU with the aim of finding a European solution to macroeconomics, but keep in mind that if you roll system for macroeconomic solutions that work, you will first have to solve the problems of micro-economies, the problems of citizens that make up Europe, as in my point of view, and since I am a layman in such a complex matter is not logical that finding solutions to the banking industry by putting a fund of 100,000 million Euros while for citizens that Europe built with their tax cuts and there is only raising taxes to support institutions that are unable to provide practical solutions to a problem that is breaking the social hubs of Capitalism.


That's why on the horizon, are not solutions in the short or medium term able to get us out of the crisis, because those who have to do so, European leaders are unable to paddle in the same direction, we can not overcome the crisis if for solutions are so large to resolve the problems of banks have been obvious that those who are consuming the citizens, and the medium term that will leave the economy afloat.

We have strong institutions, we need a European Union with a single voice representing the interests of all citizens of Europe ultimately need real political union of Europe as a cornerstone to get ahead, and solutions that address the problems of European citizens, not the fortunes of Europe.

THE RAIL AT 30 DAYS BEFORE THE ELECTION


The EU has declared the 5 priority railway lines submitted by Spain, this will lead to Spanish coffers an outlay of 49.8 billion euros, which will serve to build the corridor of the Mediterranean and the Atlantic axis, these facilities shall be designed to connect major Mediterranean ports and major population center and the Atlantic basin by rail to the industrial heart of Europe. 20% of that investment will pay their coffers and the rest will come out of the pockets of taxpayers, or private investment.

Given the affordability of such a colossal and costly work of the public purse it is worth recalling that the pharaonic construction of this will work out the creation of jobs until its completion in 2020, along with the benefits in the medium and long term for export products to Europe.

But against that we should start if it is true that the infrastructure is necessary, in time of crisis is questionable, because while basic services are cut and necessary for the public such as public health which try to impose by active and passive co-payment as the only solution for maintenance, or you cut education, a fundamental element for the progress of the citizens, one wonders if it really worth to invest billions in infrastructure that could pay comfortably with the benefits of brick, and now may be not only redeemed, but by generating economic benefits to the public purse.

Finally note that derrick Development Minister Jose Blac, giving figures and dates for the construction of this infrastructure, we do not know if after the 20N and his party will continue in office, and obviously there is a change of government vision may not be the same, and worse if there is change of political party in government will change things unfortunately for many citizens.

Way of the students

One of the main questions we ask to send our children alone to school, is, if on the way to school, something will happen, for this reason and in order to create a safe path to school, I proposed ayuntament Vendrell to create a safe path, capable of vertebrae through the town where we live.
The idea is not new, as in Barcelona,
​​in the district of l'Eixample, with the name of Cami Amic, the Barrio de la Prosperitat in the Nou Barris district, named Cami School or Poble Nou in the district of San Martin, named Cami Amic Espai School, has since 2006 working, implemented with success.

The idea proposed was to apply the draft to Vendrell, in order to create a safe path for our children to go to school. Its development involves creating a series of pedestrian crossings identified as "Cami dels estudiants" vertical signs and painted and created purposely for this purpose throughout the Vendrell. We may also provide assistance to lower points for those who may have problems along the way, with the collaboration of traders Vendrell. These points would be easily identifiable by the child, since identification would place a sticker in the window trade. Making it, could also be placed in strategic points to local police to ensure the safety of children.
Once created, with the consensus of the AMPAS for schools, local government, the merchants association and local political groups, we could create and provide, through each school, a plan for each student, with the to encourage their use as well as a series of basic safety recommendations when walking alone by the population.

The impact of camí estudiants dels within the population

We must consider some factors before carrying out the project to create the way to school, since it is not just the painting of a crosswalk or the help of a merchant or vertical placement of signs indicative, it about the adequacy of the road environment of the school, making it a safe passageway on the road side on the way to school, placing high pedestrian crossings, traffic lights and reduced speed signs throughout the area of
​​influence of the road .
We must also take into account people with reduced mobility or those who use minors being in baby carriage, adapting the way for all and for all.


The impact on schools

To better support the creation of the way to school, the schools must be equipped with driver education classes for students in secondary and creating a plan showing the layout, easily identifiable by the user. It also could create brigades of traffic, using P4 and P5 children, accompanied by local agents that could give way at pedestrian crossings adjacent to schools.

The social impact of road

One of the main factors to which reference is made in the whole experience of going to school, is the collaboration and participation of all entities that make up society where it has established and is a need to approach all and collaborate with everyone in order to create safe and accessible environments, in the case of something as important as children.
The economic cost

It is clear that the way the school has a high economic cost, if you do a project useful, practical and beneficial, the cost is out of public coffers, as the way to school is a community project, on public land for the benefit of all those who have children in school and in general the benefit of all.


The creation of the road

Obviously the creation of the way to school is a project in the medium and long term because its size and its high cost when taking into account the areas to adapt.
Therefore it is necessary to create a commission representing all the parties to agree on the route of the "Way of the students."

CATALAN A NATIONAL HERITAGE


One of the greatest assets of which can not shake a nation is without a doubt, its cultural heritage, within this cultural heritage and considered among the most important are the languages
​​that make up the national territory, which is why it is surprising that the Court of Justice of Catalonia endorses the immersion end of the benefit of a number of people from other parts of Spain are trying to impose a dual system of education Catalan involving a change that leads continuously performing the past 20 years.


And is that from an objective point of view the question we should ask why the Catalans have to yield to the demands of a population twilight come from other places, while the rest of Spain is not diametrically same, ie if assume the Catalan in Catalonia has to learn in Castilian, also must address the claims of those living outside of Catalan autonomy want their children to be taught in Catalan, and then go into a loop nationalist nonsense open a debate on the reasons why Catalan has to confine to a particular territory of the Spanish geography, while the Castilian be imposed throughout the territory as the language of teaching, and that debate pushing us to division.


For this reason, from my point of view would be logical for the Catalan league to remain as vehicular schools in Catalonia, the same way that it will continue the Castilian in the rest of Spain except in places where there is another official language, since we must bear in mind that different languages
​​that make up our geography, we offer a rich culture that we must not lose and that we should not give up, soaked in patriotism that has only served for centuries to push to a division, we to see the Catalan as a bridge to lead Spain to be another way to understand the thinking of some of the people, and not seen as a threat to the Castilian which is spoken not only in Catalonia but throughout Spain.


That's why I propose that Catalan, together with the other languages
​​that make up our geography, is an optional subject at the ESO, in order to provide our children of the rich culture we have is that we must not forget that languages ​​are a part of our heritage that far from dividing, after consideration of joining us shared.

EUROPEAN FEDERAL STATE



The current economic crisis plaguing international markets, is bankrupting the dream that once were the architects of the creation of what we know today as the EU, is that after 60 years shaping the organization, the aim of creating a joint economic policy, it seems that the lack of quorum at the time to say which path to take to address the international crisis is creating cracks in the core which could eventually lead to its dissolution.

And the main problem facing the EU today is not only to take solutions to solve current economic crisis, but rather that these solutions carry intrinsically linked to it, the creation of supranational bodies to impose a political doctrine that makes economic all countries converge in the same direction, creating a European agency debt rating to control the European debt, creating a stability fund to endow economic guarantees to countries in the eurozone or a bench investment that will generate employment in rural areas worse off.

But to do that countries will have to take the loss of sovereignty and are others and not they who make the decisions as the creation of Eurobonds same for all taxation or investment, will have to be agree on creating a single economic policy direction Europe finally to solve the problems of the crisis have to build the Federal States of Europe. But that's not an easy task if one takes into account what would the medium and long term construction, because it is not to create an economic and political structure, it is about creating a structure which also takes into account who at the bottom holding it with their taxes, who are citizens of Europe, so at the time to legislate a unified tax system, it must take into account the economic differences between countries, it is not acceptable to extrapolate the tax status of a German citizen with a Spanish if you consider that both receive wages for doing the same job. Also keep in mind that doubling the institutions is not the solution, but it is national institutions to merge into a single European institution in order not to waste public money duplicating agencies.


And is that what has been demonstrated after the outbreak of the crisis, EU has been unable to stop the bleeding socioeconomic crisis has meant for everyone in all places, has failed to effectively use their financial capacity, because at the bottom of the countries have tried to solve their problems individually ignoring collective solutions is why it is necessary to create a political leadership able to impose only a single criterion, as dissonant act has disastrous results for the institution and the citizens who compose it, the way to the European federal state is the solution to medium and long-term future starts there

SUSTAINABLE SOCIETIES


Climate change is a problem that affects us all, beyond borders, races, creeds, and one of the main triggers is the use of fossil fuels. Its use is also an unnecessary economic burden for both developed societies and societies in developing countries. But is not the only factor in climate change, too, another factor to consider is the destructive capacity while constructive man, who in the past 100 years has been able to destroy entire ecosystems for the development of their society to apply properly the findings in developing renewable energy and turn their cities into a part of the environment, with minimal impact on the ecosystem other issue to consider is the need to recycle our waste in its entirety and to make rational use of our water supply. The last point to note is that even today people still cementing their industry and civil society around this scarce, expensive and destructive to the environment such as fossil fuels seems absurd to continue in this line would have cheaper alternatives, safe and sustainable development of our societies.
Undoubtedly continue this escalation, but sooner or later, came a cruel and fruitless warfare for control of raw materials, and it is also clear that this war will not bring so many before but hunger and desolation and destruction society as we know, leading companies are likely to even worse. It is also likely that emerging companies were better, but the germ of destructive war is not the solution to solve the current problems, nor has it ever been.
The solution is simple, and is not to eradicate the use of fossil fuels but to make reasonable use of this scarce good and start using renewable energy sources for civil society to create sustainable cities coexist with the ecosystem without damaging it and without disturbing the extent possible. It is now not to destroy everything we have created to build something different it is to implement energy solutions to current problems.
Such solutions could be in line to replace, gradually park private vehicles that use gasoline or diesel for vehicles using hydrogen or solar or other non-polluting systems for traction, it could also encourage or even compel, to make homes that use photovoltaics for energy supply, it probably would not solve the energy needs of citizens, but that will turn the cities into real centers of production of clean energy that ultimately would go to the network, which would lower electricity demand another important factor to consider is the recycling of waste, lack of awareness in this area makes us beings destructive to the planet, one reasonable solution is that from the administration, encourage an active and conscious recycling of
waste because the process is far from sensitized actively to society.
Regarding the use of fossil fuels such as oil, which is highly polluting as I said before, this is not to eradicate their use, but to restrict this use to the industry and the achievement of raw materials for manufacturing use by civil society, such as chemicals to manufacture plastics, heavy oils, tar and asphalt. Also in this group of fossil fuels are the gas and coal which should be referred to the industry for its polluting effects.
Another factor is the economic cost of these measures or part of which, although initially the civil society will assume as they are implanted and creating medium-term benefits should be a reasonable cost for administration, and therefore for the society at large, medium and long term a better world for future generations, would also be important to emphasize research and development of renewable energy for industry, and ApaLI to the deficit that will lead to the lack of such material must be promote this research to create societies in all areas clean, evolve the same way they did before, since the dawn of human civilization today.
In conclusion, it would be a step to begin to take seriously these issues and seek solutions to create sustainable societies in the long run be better in all areas, because tackling the shortcomings of this world we live in, obviously we must pass "oil era" and jump right into the "era of renewable energy," and because tomorrow is partly ours and of our offspring, the future must begin to build today.

"Building a better tomorrow
is conditional on the strength of the
foundation that we put in this "

AFTER 75 YEARS



75 years ago that Franco and his followers rose up against the freedom that is worth remembering that:

"Those who dispense justice while imposing a dictatorship do to justify their crimesagainst society are creating"
