Materials To Block Emfs

Source .... Blow for All

And it's not the great film directed and written by the brilliant Christopher Nolan ...

It's "our origins" and the contempt continuous and humiliating to our people ancestors have been and are subjected to since the days of "concealment of America," time is squandered and destroyed a truly vital culture, a wise and powerful strength. Happens to us even today in 2010 we can not reconcile with our true history? .-

We are a country based purely immigrant, but can not forget who have lived and tilled the land since time immemorial? .

What has happened in the community Formosa Spring (hereinafter transcribe what they published themselves), and previously in the community Diaguita de Tucumán, in Amaicha Valley and Zone de Quilmes to the community also gives us an account of a large domestic debt we have with the matrix of our cultura.Es time to reflect, to create networks of support and recognition and demand that the authorities would never happen again cases like that are listed below.

The Formosa government represses and kills

In the morning we came to shoot with Celia and insulting the police.
lawyer and Celia us fired against the police, but this did nothing.
pretended Police dropped a gun and then blame us for everything, everything was planned in advance, long ago. We communicate with the Public Ministry of Defense to know what was going on and especially with our public defender Resistance Molina we did not know what to do.

Local newspapers came to talking about tolerance. The ombudsman Gianluca Formosa also published in local newspapers on Tuesday morning of the impending eviction.
They take to delegate INADI an adviser to the governor of Formosa. Insulted and criticized from the province to INADI, an institution with the Public Ministry of Defense have been warning about the conflict. And to whom we presented our complaints.

We resorted to justice all the times we could. With complaints, injunctions, appeals, appeals.
We have used human rights organizations to denounce what they're doing, CELS, to SERPAJ to Gajates, Amnesty International.
received dozens of acts of violence in the cut that we have denounced in the courts.
However we cut mode was very flexible, we let the vehicles pass the hours of work. And whenever we go to ambulances and emergency departments. Out of respect for life.
We are not violent, we just want to meet indigenous laws, such as respect Convention 169 (ratified by Law View 24,071) , Declaration of Indigenous Rights of the United Nations Article 75, the territorial emergency law 26,160.
After years of hitting hundreds of doors of offices and the province provoke us with the installation of a University Institute in our territory we had no choice but to take a measure such as cutting the route.
In these four months of no official provincial court wanted to talk to us.
Now we have repressed, is dead, injured, detained, our houses burnt.
And the province tries to blame!
far will they go?

REPUDIATE THE LIE OF THE GOVERNMENT AND MEDIA Formoseño
INDIANS ARE NOT MURDERERS, VICTIMS BUT

Union of Peoples of the Nation Diaguita repudiates the violent police procedures implemented by the government of Formosa, which after months of inaction perpetrated this action against the brothers of the Community The Spring. This maneuver is compounded by the misinformation of the media in the province of Formosa, which feature the brothers Qom as violent beings who commit murder, when the historical reality shows the gentleness with which they were guided in their tasks for years. In the same way ignores the threatening actions that
permanent police conducted in the area during the months of resistance on the road, today the police itself is presented as a victim and here again are corroborated hide for years: police brutality, no doubt fired the fatal consequences where a member of that force is the victim.

All this crude maneuver, to present the facts in this way, only aims to present the claim of indigenous peoples like depredations of barbarian hordes. What Formosa media and government do not show is the claim Route 86 which Brother Felix Diaz with their communal place for months.
Therefore, from our territory, Diaguita Union expresses its solidarity with the people of Qom the Community The Spring in the province of Formosa, lamenting the death of brother Roberto Lopez, who, like Don Javier C Chocobar defended the struggle of our people with his life. Also expresses its strongest condemnation of the criminal state led by Gildo Insfran Formosa.

Warning that the clarification of the facts in any case will come from the state's own agencies criminal. In this respect we demand that the national state to intervene in the issue urgently. Call to make the same claim to the other indigenous organizations, human rights organizations, trade unions and social movements.
therefore, we hereby call the following numbers:
- Sec DD HH the nation. Tel: (54-11) 5167-6500
- Presidency of the Nation . Tel: 011-4344-3600

Nadine Jansen With Melina Velba



In recent weeks, the BEA revived the debate on inflation. Do not want to lose opportunity to make a review (in general) of the different positions, trying to start from the bottom of the topic, so that our friends do not economists can better follow the thread.

The inflation process originates in successive increments general price level. It is often said that price increases must be "widespread", that is, cover a wide range of goods and services, since otherwise what would be observed is simply a change in relative prices (a product becomes more expensive or cheaper compared with another product , than it was before).
The inflation rate is measured based on the variation of a price index basket of goods and services representative (eg consumers). If seen some acceleration in the rate of inflation in subsequent periods they say that inflation is "espiraliza" and may end up in a process hyperinflation (inflation over a certain level).

A major confusion is often seen in the fact that often are wrong, "high prices" with high inflation. The prices of the economy are represented on a scale: say, if my use only one well, and that it passes cost $ 10 per unit to $ 10,000 but the income of MI go from being also $ 10 to $ 10,000, then I do not no problem generates the observed price increase (although the change in price during that period was really extreme: 99,900% !!!). If after prices and wages remain at these levels and do not vary, and inflation would not be observed if we replace the dollar sign "weights" for the new "over 1,000 pesos" or other cute name that always devise in our country, changing a new currency unit for above 1,000 units, then scale return to its previous absolute value.
generally if all prices and all incomes grow at the same rate increase they say that inflation is neutral (does not affect the real variables such as employment, output measured in constant prices and this case also the distribution of income) and economists focus more on problems that causes continuous variation in prices, which could "distort decisions and reduce economic efficiency " .*

As in the world there are many goods and services and all vary in different proportions and income simply be impossible to offset (up or down) just a person by variations in the price of the products they consume, the problems caused by inflation are varied and can range from lack of predictability of real returns on investment ( gain is obtained by making an investment or speculative production, measured in terms of purchasing power for goods and services) or problems associated with poverty, as the price increases that consume low-income people can take that can not afford even the minimum levels considered subsistence.
The origins of inflation are hotly debated by supporters of various positions. In Argentina today, most outstanding visions can be summarized as follows:
i-Bid distributive concerns certain class struggle between workers and capitalists to see who gets more portion of the revenue pie in the production process. From this position it is easy to understand how they could espiralizar inflation: Workers fight for better wages, then the capitalists raise prices to support higher costs and maintain its rate of profit. If all firms do the same, then the prices rose at a rate X and workers to recover their real wages are going to ask (X + something)% increase. And the capitalists then raise prices and etc, etc. ... Michal Kalecki, the great Polish economist, stressed this point.

ii- Excess of Demand: If the Central Bank makes a very loose monetary policy (eg weight issues too. To buy dollars and thereby increase its reserves and maintain the nominal exchange rate) excess liquidity may put downward pressure on domestic interest rates and that this will stimulate investment spending. Thus, in the style of "hydraulic Keynesianism" (and at this point coincides with the vision of Keynes) can say that if the economy is at full employment, then the excess demand does not adjust for numbers, but you press the prices higher.
excess emission also might check to fund the National Treasury, as some argue that it is necessary to decrease the rate of growth of public spending and public sector to generate surpluses, which allow the surplus to buy foreign exchange to pay debts to foreign creditors without the need to give when you do weights as the Central Bank.

Monetarist iii-Version: from accelerating the rate of growth of money supply, then, in the short term can reduce unemployment below a certain level "natural." But in the long term (which we would be coming, if we assume that the shocks were introduced after the end of convertibility) unemployment would return to its "natural" level and may have checked some spiraling inflation.

iv-pay version Debt Reserves (it's a personal view): if we assume that the Government or the Central Bank wishes to maintain a certain level of international reserves or that they will increase continuously, and changed some of the same for Lyrics transferable Treasury, the Central Bank in an effort to achieve the goal of rebuilding reserves should increase the issue, and moreover also contribute to the maintenance of TCN at a level greater than or equal to a desired minimum (in my opinion, this minimum is the fear of floating in reverse, ie the floor that is set for a hypothetical free float can not reach our currency to appreciate too.)

v-imported inflation (or shock of commodities): are also those who argue that inflation is due to reasons of rising international prices of certain primary products, which leads to extended to the rest of the fast food and so impact on price indices. Here there is still plenty of material to cut ...

vi-Output Gap: when the economy grows at high rates, as occurred from 2003 to here, while there is some level of idle capacity (factors of production available for used) does not generate too many problems prices. But when you close the output gap (ie, the production reaches a level near or above, which is considered "potential" or maximum due to the conditions of technology and full utilization of the factors) is generate price pressures, which can be explained in a simple (albeit incomplete and vaguely) for a possible increase in wages (due to unemployment would fall and workers would have greater bargaining power) that could lead to trigger a more equitable distribution as which Marcab in (i).

vii-Market Adjustment and the Working Assets after successive reductions : ** Introduces devaluation price increase of goods export (partially offset by deductions) and on the other hand, all the goods that use imported inputs and imported final goods we consume. In the overshooting models (over-reaction) Exchange Rate considered that the money market and currency (usually more active markets) adjust faster than goods (which adjusts slowly against excess demand or offer.) Thus, the NER reaction above its long-term and while it is converging, prices are rising to a new level of long-term equilibrium. (In short, if we close one of the signings BEA's most important, we will expand this point.)


Well, down here, we mark some of the possible causes of inflation. The BEA is producing enough material to keep in mind about what it should contain an anti-inflationary, so it is not necessary for me to dwell here.

However, I do not want to miss the occasion to mark, in line with what they said Ana C. here, and (with a bit more skepticism) ELY here that the Revenue Policy is an instrument that can not be set aside. Believe that Monetary Policy and Fiscal Policy resolved everything, I think it is ignorance that Economics is a Social Science, and as such should be taken into consideration that individuals, interest groups, unions, corporations, etc. . have enough capacity for your lack of coordination leads to economic policy can not be effective.

What is needed is to coordinate the economy. Coordinate expectations and make the future a little more predictable. Or at least to know where we go. Better yet, agree or agree to where we go, with all relevant actors.

And if this could result in a social pact (which contains elements of Revenue Policy, namely wage and price developments or arrangements of such adjustments based on certain variables), why should not we try?

addition, if it contributes to reduce the conflict between economic and class struggle, would it be too eccentric to think that the positive externality that generates social agreement is immeasurable?.

Anyway, the other that remains is: Rate Up, Spending Down ... as doing laboratory experiments to see where the curves move ... and good ... who wanted the economy resembles the natural sciences, it seems that they succeeded.

Greetings,

MI


PS: Do not say that the PM and PF are not relevant to control inflation, saying only that accompanied a social or policy income will be much more effective or even going to have more chances of being able to have the desired effect without having to bear all the sacrifices in employment or the level of activity.

* For those who are not stick to the economy and are interested, I recommend the book by Paul Krugman, The Age of Expectations Limited, 3rd ed. Ariel: 2003
The part that explains inflation is short and very educational.

** The concept of devaluation (and revaluation) is usually reserved for government decisions to alter the exchange rate of domestic currency for foreign currency. Instead depreciation (and appreciation) is often used when these movements are given mainly by foreign exchange market conditions.

Vygotsky In 21st Century Society

CHILDREN .... FIRST ....


Countless times we have heard and read that sentence ... " Children First."

Jesus himself proclaimed ... " let the children come to me" ... .

Former President Juan Domingo Perón could say:

"We want future generations to know Argentine smile from childhood ... Under the glorious folds of our flag, can not and must be Argentine children can not go to school or having to go to her malnourished. Nor should be malnourished living in homes without light and heat. We fight, men of this government, because you, the children may live this carefree, delivered to your games and your studies, covered in a family cristianamente constituida, seguros del porvenir ”.-

De más está decir que no hubo ni un aspirante a la presidencia, que en plena campaña no se sacara la consabida foto con un niño en los brazos …en las manifestaciones las madres le alcanzan sus bebés a los presidenciables para que ellos los alcen…(imágenes enternecedoras)….

Esto, y mucho más, cuenta a la hora de mostrar nuestro interés por la niñez.
Sin embargo, y muy a pesar nuestro, todos los días podemos ver a cientos de niños en situación de mendicidad, de trabajo infantil, de abandono en sus distintas formas y variables.-

Que nos pasa como personas (And as society as a whole) when a child asks us money? ... Our mind does realize that behind that small is an organization that exploits them ... or that their parents are waiting to get hidden then DineroYa / or beat if you got nothing ... or bigger ones take advantage of them ... etc. .. etc. .. etc. .. Sorry ... what? Does the hearts of us panic?

"We are hoarse!? We are scared? Impotence ?....

Is well and is supportive help that child with money? Or with that we become complicit in their misfortune and slavery offering coins ?.... Is it better to buy food? Or do you take to our house? ... or call the secretary of children and ask that the state take over or indifference ?...¿ body is in us and as a defensive ... (not suffering) ... look the other way ... or we repeat phrases like "that injustice " or " in other countries this does not happen " or " parents are a p h" ... o. .. " the state does not have to do anything "and thousands of etceteras ..?

But we, are we responsible for this? Or just circumstantial participate ...? We are participating
necessary? .. And then .. what would be the attitude hostel a greater good for the child and thus to our society?
Do we know how many children remain homeless and living at the expense of begging and the burden ?...¿ are aware that soon will grow up with all the pain in his psyche and body (worn by the speed of having to grow up without games , without food, warmth and affection)? .-

"True to our society" children come first?

How can we make a safety net and justice for these children do not lose their children in the path of the urban jungle ...?.

Do we have an answer for this pain overcomes reality? Hopefully

yes .- That once and forever all children, by the mere fact of being in this world deserve equal opportunities.

It's only fair ... And at that moment, our society, could be called Digna .-

Make A Dalmation Costume

Inflation and AUH


These days, I figured posting something negative about the legalization of Marijuana in California. The idea was to mix with touches of Terminator Soros the arguments that I had clearly been convincing.
So, I wanted to enter the debate so far is implemented in our country.

Anyway, the BEA has some mechanisms that will carry you to certain issues that, in order to build well you think it is necessary to write a full post.

In post comments Luciano Cohan opened a debate in front of me and is interested in continuing the impact of inflation on poverty and destitution.

Of course, this analysis must necessarily be done roughly by problems caused by the lack of credibility of the INDEC and besides, I will add some additional simplifications for ease of exposition.

Before I noted that one of the biggest mistakes people make when analyzing the impact of the AUH (which can be applied to the case of the moratorium pension) and that is the income from = 0 of the people who started to receive it.

So, say for example.:
"If you had $ 0 and now you have $ 220, as high inflation can be detrimental to the beneficiary?"

When we measure the variation from zero income to any other positive number, the variation can be seen as an increase of 100%?. The problem is that regardless of how much this would be the new amount.

addition, as an income of zero deflate any rate, is zero, the problem is trivial and defenders seem inflationary redistribution be right.

if you think about a little more, we realize that a more realistic assumption is that nominal income any family is necessarily greater than zero. But equally, if we continue to hold that it was zero, which I would argue is that by price increases of consumer goods, the income gap that the family would need to acquire certain basket, every time is greater . So not the same inflation for someone who has an income of 0, because if you get a handle ever afford to buy less.

was thinking pose a series of hypothetical scenarios, when I found this very good laburo Diego Born, working on the basis of data from the EPH, and used to update the basic basket Total and Basic Food Basket, INDEC CPI until the intervention of 2007 and since then the CPI BACity.

One of the observations made by the author that, in line with what posteábamos here, the bulk of the improvement in reduction of the gap between rich and poor over the Kirchner government was between 2004 and 2005.

Analyzing the gap between the 1st quintile of poorest and richest 1st, the cited author says: " The decrease strongest recorded between 2004 and 2005, when the gap goes from 20.2 to 14.8 times (this abrupt drop is due in large part, to the decrease in the number of people living in households with no income, which rose from 3.5% in 2004 to be below 1% in the remaining years). Then, the fall was a more mild to the second quarter of 2008 (11.9 times), with a slight increase in the second quarter of 2009 (12.5 times). "

to end Lavagna November 2005 he served as Minister of Economy of Argentina. Debt relief and reduction of gap between richer and the poor seem to have been characteristic of his administration. And judging by the data provided by the cited work, many are leaner later results.

addition, I would like to make constructive criticism to the work on income distribution: look at the evolution real income among the various deciles do not have much relevance.

In deciles of the population most vulnerable, the impact of inflation (using the index you want) you can leave directly below the line poverty or extreme poverty (measured by monetary income). This is purely theoretical, say. I do not think that a family gets $ 100 dollars more than necessary to avoid falling into poverty, according to the criteria and measurement handling, stop being poor.

However, what is truth is that by assigning a poor family the AUH, their incomes are increased by a large proportion. But considering who may be unemployed or working in black, their previous earnings to AUH are totally eroded by inflation and less than the sum of all child allowances received a family exceeds the rate of inflation for the period multiplied by the income (AUH) thereof, they will be disadvantaged in terms of purchasing power.

Suppose a flia. Had an income of $ 500 before the AUH and observed annual inflation rate of 20% (assuming a monthly rate equivalent to 1.5% *). AUH With $ 180 for 2 children (say, given all the same month, for simplicity) then went to monthly family income increased by 73% and become $ 860.

long would it take in this case, inflation to eat the AUH? Approx. 37 months.


The outcome depends on the initial situation and the inflation rate to consider. As the AUH is a fixed sum regardless of the income of flias. Qualifying for the lower income who started (as is the case of those who were below the poverty line), the impact of the AUH causes a substantial increase in household income and hence inflation, is higher than takes longer to eliminate or reverse the positive impact.

4 cases are presented: Household Income before AUH $ 500, $ 1000, $ 1500 and $ 2000.
have to make an aggravating factor is that the Food and Beverage recently raised their prices at rates higher than the rest of the basket, so that lower-income family could deflate their cash income by a rate higher inflation (this will leave aside at this time).

As stated above, for the first family, the additional income given the conditions AUH provided, it would take about 37 months be reversed as a result of inflation
For the other three cases, the times are shortened and become 21 months (for incomes of $ 1000), 15 months ($ 1500) and only 12 months for those with incomes of $ 2000 before AUH.

is true that we are not taking into account any adjustments that may have income, but it also seems reasonable to assume (contrary to what official statistics say) that the most disadvantaged face greater difficulties in obtaining improvements in them.
I hope that this would become clearer the point that I referred to there is to see who would take out to give to the poor people.

think Unless all families by 2009 living on $ 2000 per month were rich?
Yeah, yeah, I know that AUH was increased to $ 220, but everyone knows that if instead of putting $ 2000, put $ 2500 and instead of 20% of inflation, we put 30%, the results are less encouraging ...


Generalizing, we can say given a monthly inflation rate equivalent to the annual rate would be observed in the case of "normalcy" of government statistics, the period (t) from which offset the benefit of the AUH for inflation and after this worsen income at constant prices of the family is given by:

Well, now you can play around with the numbers and not talk so much in
air ...
Greetings,

MI
