The truth is, too when I saw the suspension for the New Economics Book of the 3rd Gymnasium, I thought it was one of those ‘trolleys’ born in Facebook after 11 in the evening. But come on I opened the digital book And I saw it with my eyes: on the same page, the mother who cuts the food to three to feed her children, and Cristiano Ronaldo He is tormented because he cannot turn advertising and play ball at the same time.
Just like that: “But even multi -millionaires cannot meet all their needs. Multimillionaire footballer Cristiano Ronaldo wants to spend his weekend playing football and turning a advertising film, but he can’t do both at the same time. “
Pain without classes. The narrowness in all its splendor.
If the Carl Marx lived, it would probably close the “chapter” And he would rewrite it in a soap opera entitled “And the rich cry”. Because here poverty, unemployment and inequality are presented as weather: a little like the wind blowing for everyone. Neither social structures, nor class contradictions – only an unfortunate circumstance that strikes the unemployed worker himself and Christian.
Only, as the François Mitterrand“Inequality is not fate, it is an option.” And putting the family without electricity on the same page with the millionaire who doesn’t know how to fit his weekend activities is like explaining the hunger of the world with “we are all hungry – another for food, another for … sushi with caviar”.
Finance lesson, then:
- The poor does not have to pay the rent or supermarket.
- Ronaldo is not able to turn the spotlight.
Conclusion: Injustice is not social, it is a … program matter.
If we continue so, the next book will probably explain to us that in the heat “we are all suffering the same”: the homeless who is looking for a shadow in the square and the tycoon footballer who is not able to choose which of his three villas will work better. Strait … Drosia, you see …
