Verano 2023: entre el boom turístico y los sectores que no llegan a vacacionar

Un informe del Instituto de Estudios de Consumo Masivo (INDECOM) reveló que la mayor parte de les argentines no puede irse de vacaciones, siendo las clases bajas y marginales las más damnificadas.  La llegada del verano 2023 y con ello la posibilidad de viajar a algún punto del país es un gusto que no todes pueden darse. De acuerdo al informe del Instituto de Estudios de Consumo Masivo (INDECOM) el “79,8 % de las familias llevan más de 36 meses sin tomarse, al menos, un fin de semana de descanso en alguno de los puntos turísticos del país”. En ese sentido, entre los ajustes económicos para el pago de la deuda con el FMI y la suba de precios, muchas familias se quedaron sin poder disfrutar del verano. Según explica Miguel Calvete, director del INDECOM, las razones que imposibilitan que las familias se tomen vacaciones son “el espiral inflacionario que azota el bolsillo, provocando un daño mucho mayor en los sectores de menores recursos, en donde se observa una caída del consumo muy marcada y proporcional a los incrementos señalados”. Sin embargo, el pasado 9 de enero, el Presidente Alberto Fernández expresó en Miramar, partido de la Costa, que tanto en 2022 como en 2023 hubo una temporada turística récord. De la misma forma, Matías Lammens, ministro de Turismo y Deporte, enfatizó que “de acuerdo a nuestras proyecciones, también será intenso el movimiento turístico durante la segunda quincena de enero y todo febrero en los principales destinos del país”. Los datos que reflejan lo contrario  No obstante, los datos del INDECOM revelan que el 43,5% de les encuestades de las clases bajas y marginales manifestaron que se les imposibilita vacacionar. No obstante, en el caso de las clases medias y altas, este número desciende al 26,9% de la muestra.

La costa es uno de los lugares que más eligen las familias para disfrutar. Los alquileres de carpas en La Perla, Mar del Plata, rondan los $300.000 mensuales. Crédito: sol 95.1. De la misma forma, uno de los datos que más impacta en el verano 2023 es que 8 de cada 10 personas consultadas reconocieron que les resulta imposible vacacionar durante esta temporada. Pese a esto, Calvete reiteró que “no hay que dejarse engañar por los números que muestran una explosión turística porque esos datos reflejan las posibilidades económicas de apenas el 20 % de la población”. Los lugares elegidos para vacacionar Según el relevamiento del Observatorio Argentino de Turismo (OAT) las primeras dos semanas de enero los turistas eligieron como destinos a Mar del Plata, Villa Gesell, el Partido de la Costa, Villa Carlos Paz, San Carlos de Bariloche, la Quebrada de Humahuaca o Gualeguaychú. Los mismos tuvieron un nivel de ocupación de entre el 85% y 95%. El porcentaje de ocupación para algunos lugares fueron del 96% para Tafí del Valle; el 80% para Puerto Iguazú; el 85% para Mar del Plata; el 85% para Villa Carlos Paz; el 85% para San Carlos de Bariloche y el 88% para Las Grutas. Además, desde el Ministerio de Turismo y Deporte comunicaron que la empresa Aerolíneas Argentinas transportó más de un millón de personas desde el 15 de diciembre de 2022 hasta la fecha. Dichos viajes incluyeron un promedio de 250 salidas y más de 33.000 pasajeres a diario, con 38 destinos nacionales, 48 rutas interprovinciales y 21 destinos internacionales.

Quienes eligen irse de vacaciones sufren el impacto de la inflación acumulada durante 2022 y los aumentos de tarifas que el Gobierno implementó para pagar la deuda con el FMI. Crédito: eldiario.ar. De la misma manera, el informe del Instituto de Estudios de Consumo Masivo (INDECOM) indicó que “Brasil creció exponencialmente y volvió este año a ser uno de los destinos internacionales preferidos de los argentinos”. Asimismo, en comparación con diciembre de 2022 y 2021, Río de Janeiro trepó un 400%. Además, la Superintendencia de Turismo de Florianópolis informó que desde 2012 no se registraba un inicio de temporada con tanta afluencia de viajeros argentinos. Sin embargo, estos destinos que se han ofrecido para el verano 2023 no son para todes. La economía no está apuntada para todos los bolsillos de los diversos sectores poblacionales, por lo que los más damnificades a la hora de vacacionar son la clase media y baja. Tanto los costos de los alquileres como los pasajes de trenes o el valor del combustible imposibilitan que muchas familias disfruten del verano. Pese a esto, para el Gobierno las vacaciones del 2023 son todo un éxito, mientras que un sector de la población no llega a fin de mes.

How Corona virus affected life’s of Migrant workers ?

The Coronavirus has distressed the whole world. It has demolished every country economy and growth. Coronavirus has a great impact on daily wage earners,barbers,construction workers,rickshaw drivers, dabbawaala ,small businesses etc. In results the factories are shutdown, and small companies also have to bear huge losses. This pandemic not only afffected Indian labourers but also labourers outside the India. Over 40 Million Migrant workers are troubled said by the World bank. With loss of daily income they can't survive in their daily life.

1 Daily Income Loss

The daily wage earners and people who are relying on daily wages like rickshaw drivers, vegetable sellers etc. Most of them are suffering due to coronavirus. A person .Their vital income source was factories and industries providing them money on daily basis. As social distance has applied by the government bodies for all citizens . it is pretty hard for factory workers to work effeciently. No companies are running during lock down , so no income for them.

2 Unable to pay rent.

Many workers have vocal about the rents are not paid by them. As these workers come from rural areas in other cities for work & also to support their families. Some of the states have requested landlords to take delay in rent payment from these workers. At least 1 months rent delay in rent payment should be authorized by government says local politicians.

3 Unplanned Lockdown.

As we all know the First lockdown in India announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 24 March. The lockdown was suddenly declared. The existing workers and labourers who came with their family  from rural areas in cities for employment also get stuck in this unplanned lockdown. Therefore more migrant workers were there in a city.

4. Food Shortages.

Food shortage dilemma also faced by these workers. There were not enough food supplies in this lockdown. as many food grain stores are not open. Many labourers are working in the food manufacturing industries also closedown due to the pandemic .The less labourers are working in this industries, as supply chain changed and slow down. As we can see in some articles these labourers eating biscuits only.

5. Lack of Transport services.

We all know how all the workers started to walk their villages. Thousand of workers walked to their home. Most of them don't have money to travel by train or bus. This created an investigation of the labourers policy. local trains were closed and only certain trains were running but it requires loads of paperwork. The workers claimed that even after giving this papers their name has not come in the list. They also stated that many private vehicles and buses are charging higher prices. All this made them walk with their families on the road .

6. No social distancing.

Many of migrant workers have gathered from cities to their home .This includes large numbers of migrant people’s around 2000 workers reunited near Bandra station in Mumbai and other places for their demands  to the government . This makes gap in social distancing. If a person is infected with the virus in this group it would affect more people. As we all know how much private hospitals are charging for the covid.

7. Ray of Hope.

Yes, you heard right a ray of hope is still there for this worker. Some Non - profit organisation, individuals and government bodies are helping with daily free meals and travel arrangements. You have heard about actor Sonu Sood he was on the news for arranging many buses,flight and trains for this worker.

Los funcionarios de la Administración Pública olvidados

Los funcionarios de la Administración Pública olvidados

Durante todo este tiempo de azote de la pandemia se ha estado aplaudiendo al personal sanitario, a las Fuerzas de Seguridad del Estado, a Protección Civil y a la UME, pero hay una parte del funcionariado del Estado que ha estado realizando una encomiable labor en silencio. Una labor que está permitiendo el sostenimiento económico de muchas familias.

Estos funcionarios pertenecen al SEPE – lo que…

Free Armour Trimming: The Communist Revolution Inside Runescape

RuneScape was once declared the world’s largest multiplayer online game. Millions of people were entranced by its blocky graphics and repetitive gameplay. Like many young people in the early noughties, I was naively drawn in by RuneScape’s promise that hard work, industrious labour, and a lava battle staff would allow me to earn enjoyment and success. Capitalism, too, has promised the workers of the world that faithfulness to our employers is the path to contentment. Yet the relation of exploitation between the capitalist and working classes has led the proletariat into open revolt against our rulers over and over again. RuneScape, like capitalism, has repeatedly entered into periods of crisis in which the people have demanded change. And as I learned today while procrastinating, in RuneScape just as in capitalism, the people have turned to communism to build a new world. An ancient fan wiki revealed to me the lost history of class struggle in RuneScape, and now I bring it to the world in the hopes of developing our class consciousness as workers. In 2007, a communist RuneScape clan was formed to bring proletarian rule to Server 32 of the world of Gielinor. In a context of scattered clan infighting, the RuneScape communist party was a rampantly victorious social force. Under the wise leadership of SireZaros, the communists waged a revolutionary struggle against reactionary and bourgeois clans that saw more than 5,000 player characters killed in the fighting. Where the other clans, though, were motivated by base self-interest, the communists were driven by something more, something higher. With the weight of history on their side, animated by the might of the worker-peasant masses, armed with both the revolutionary science of Marxism and dragon battleaxes, the RuneScape communists were militarily undefeatable. Within three months, the communists controlled 95% of Server 32. It was thus that the working class of Gielinor became, for a brief and beautiful moment, masters of our own destiny.

The RuneScape communists quickly set about building socialism. They established a series of Soviets, elected local councils tasked with determining the needs of the working class. These councils appointed members to a people’s parliament who deliberated the issues of the day and approved or denied the decisions of a cabinet of more than 20 ministers. This socialist government was responsible for planning and administering every aspect of the world’s economy. Redistributing wealth, shepherding the collective wellbeing of all, RuneScape socialism flourished. SireZaros, once the leader of a revolutionary army, was now president of a peacetime government. The world, for a time, was peaceful. This was not to last. In early 2008, the party fell into a period of brutal civil war. Led by Redsteel136, a more junior party member, a small group of coup-makers scrabbled for control of the government. After vicious brother versus brother, sister versus sister, player versus player combat, Redsteel136’s plot was successful. The new leadership of the party found the deposed cabinet guilty of crimes against humanity–an accusation which history, unfortunately, does not illuminate either way. SireZaros, the hero of the revolution, along with the entire overthrown party cadre, was executed. With Redsteel136 as the new General Secretary of the party, the communists pursued a strategy of market reforms to build a powerful economy. Funding the state from the proceeds of the sale of high-level items, Server 32 was a commanding force. The changes initiated by General Secretary Redsteel136 were not only economic. Karamja is an in-game island populated by NPC pirates and (in hindsight, more than little racist caricatures of) indigenous people. The presence of pirates hints, I think, at an in-universe history of colonialism perpetrated against Karamja by the now communist-controlled Kingdoms of Asgarnia and Kandarin. In a display of admirable anti-imperialist solidarity between socialists in the imperial core and colonised peoples, General Secretary Redsteel136 acknowledged the virtual island’s right to national liberation. Administration of the island was handed over to a Karamjan clan who have, unfortunately, gone unrecorded in history. Life in Server 32, it appears, settled down for a time after the chaos of the civil war. However, measures implemented in late 2007 by the developers of RuneScape to control real-world money trading had set a catastrophic chain reaction in motion. Some light is shed on the disaster by Tanla E. Bilir’s 2009 thesis on RuneScape’s relation to the non-virtual economy. Jagex, the company that produces RuneScape, needed to counteract the issue of virtual marketplaces such as eBay allowing the sale of in-game items for cash. In order to prevent players in-game from handing over valuable items for nothing, a clear indicator that payment had been received in US Dollars rather than Gielinorian Gold Pieces, Jagex set the prices of all in-game items at fiat values. All items were then required to trade for a number of RuneScape Gold pieces within a fixed range above or below that fiat value. That value could vary up or down as items were traded, but it could only increase or decrease by a limited amount over a given period. The effects of this dastardly economic imperialism by the capitalist running dogs at Jagex were devastating to Server 32’s workers’ state. The unbelievably rare, highly sought-after items such as colourful paper Party Hats or the (inexplicably priceless) Half Full Jugs of Wine had had their fiat values set orders of magnitude lower than their market value. Items which had once sold for billions of gold pieces were now impossible to trade–and because General Secretary Redsteel136’s market reforms had founded the communist economy on these items, the economy imploded. In October, the economy bottomed out at its historical low. Nevertheless, the communist party continued to hold out, hoping that the tradeable price of high-level items would eventually grow high enough to allow for an eventual economic recovery. Sadly, this was not to be. In the grip of total market collapse, the communists were incapable of extracting enough tax revenue from players to meet the clan fees necessary for them to maintain power. As the sun set on the final few days of December 2008, after almost a year of working-class rule, General Secretary Redsteel136 dissolved the party and returned power to the bourgeoisie. RuneScape’s first experiment in socialism ended, regretfully, in the restoration of capitalist domination. This should not, however, be taken as a sign that capitalism is inevitable or uncontestable. The revolutionary fervour with which the proletariat of Server 32 ganked and teabagged their way to power demonstrates clearly that the objective conditions for communism in RuneScape can and do exist. Likewise, while General Secretary Redsteel136′s ascent to power came through backroom politicking and anti-democratic plots, his policies towards Karamjan national liberation were progressive and internationalist. The crisis which snuffed out the flame of socialism was the result of a concerted attack by a powerful capitalist foe. RuneScape’s communist revolution was defeated a decade ago. As Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels taught in The Manifesto of Communist Party, “What the bourgeoisie, therefore, produces, above all, are its own grave-diggers. Its fall and the victory of the proletariat are equally inevitable.” The struggles we face, in the workplace and in the family computer room, result from the internal contradictions of the capitalist world system. The rich need us, in order to exploit us for our labour. With nobody to extract profit from, capitalism could not exist. But we do not need the rich. There is no reason we cannot break the mithril chains of exploitation, come together as workers, and share in common the sweet loot of our labour.

Are We Facing a Constitutional Crisis?

By Grace Lidia Suarez

Everybody and his sister seem to be going around saying that if Trump fires Special Counsel Robert Mueller, we would face a constitutional crisis. Senator Mark Warner even took to the floor of the Senate to warn us. He said the crisis would be created by Trump’s action in placing himself above the rule of law.

Would this action trigger a constitutional crisis? What exactly…
