ROJAS AND CHRISTMAS CARDBOARD HOUSE

CHRISTMAS CARDBOARD HOUSE AND

writes: Walter Montañez Vargas

Christmas is a special day that reflects the harsh reality of the country. A few celebrate the birth of Jesus with great feasting and many fine drink, while others that day, go hungry, even though the world is richer than ever (the irony of liberal society).

The rich, white skin, who lives in a lavish mansion, and the poor, brown skin, living in cardboard house on the hill, celebrate Christmas in different ways. One was celebrated with great pomp and extravagance, while the other goes to the empty table. Yet the second consolation is your TV (artifact inevitable) to "delight" with the various delicacies and taste virtually.

Rich, after eating sumptuously and take several Champagnes "Cuvée Belle Epoque" (1.000 euros per bottle), on Christmas Eve, the next day December 25, after the hangover is going to rest their "beach houses", or to browse their "private megayachts" and refresh with the gentle sea breezes. In contrast, the poor have to continue working (for walking) to pay for his popular cafeteria menu. For them there is a holiday. Both characters, Christmas, raise their prayers to the baby Jesus. The first was made in appreciation for the riches it possesses, while the second thanks to keep alive even though they lack the basic means of subsistence.

The poor, for not having a formal job in a company (the "liberal society" it comes out), look to the outreach work, informal work, which is carried out on the streets walking, shining shoes, selling quail eggs, candy offering cars, etc. At Christmas they do smoothly, since the serenazgo not confiscate their goods (which varies by S/.30.00 capital) as they do throughout the year in the name of public adornment. Indeed, the mayor of Lima square (Luis Castillo) and middle-class districts (La Molina, Surco, Miraflores, San Isidro, Jesús María, Los Olivos, San Borja), to hear, constantly, the melodies of villancicos (Christmas songs) put them sensitive to the human drama that pass the poor.

So much so, that on the day of Christmas allowed to work in the streets. Turning Christmas, as we do not hear the above tunes, they softened the heart to the mayors, abuses become mobile. The Serenazgo arranchan (if not steal) their goods, the beatings and insults as if they were vile criminals. Even they even lose their lives to defend their merchandise, as happened in San Isidro, where a municipal police hanged one of them. In those districts are the plague. Be traveling in Peru is to be an immigrant abroad, because they are persecuted for wanting to earn their daily bread honestly. The right to food is a human right that must be protected by the state, but the Peruvian government only cares about the welfare and tranquility of the wealthy. -Poor God worry. So promise religious faiths, the homeless, welfare and peace in heaven, provided they despise the material life on earth. The various religious groups welcome the proverb from the Bible: "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich man to enter the kingdom of God" (Matthew 19:24.).

With respect to the rich, who live in abundance, the eve of Christmas, participating in public charity (alms) to be at ease with his conscience, for they, get your fortune from a unfairly: they pay starvation wages to their workers and make them work outside office hours no pay, do not allow their workers form a union and claim their rights and labor, pillage the environment without restoring it (that would generate costs, if the mining companies), that the government seek an exemption for certain taxes, incur corruption (Crusillac and Schütz, owners of two TV stations, etc.).

magnate, to be good about himself, in a hypocritical way, visit to orphanages, hospitals, nursing homes, young people, participate in telethons (such as the San Juan Clinic Home God, etc.). by providing a handout, distributed food and medicine, gives away clothes, gives some financial support. As reciprocity, receives praise, blessings to have long life and economic success in your business. This brings the ego of millionaire. At the end of the charity consoles, but does not solve social injustice. "When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. And when you wonder why they have no food, they call me communist," he said, once, Brazilian bishop Helder Camara.

For the abysmal social differences between rich and poor is generated human sacrifice, it's scary: The UN tells us: "In the world, the number of hungry people has increased to 854 million people, including more than 6 million children under 5 die of hunger every year. " All this happens because of the extreme unequal distribution of wealth generated in the country, then, a handful of wealthy owners of transnational corporations, account for 85% of the planet's wealth. This is allowed by the neoliberal model that governs the world economy.

Having this gloomy scenario, inequality and social injustice, we must promote an alternative world without exclusion, and exploitation, where no child dies of hunger Christmas, a worker with a living wage a mother does not have to resort to public charity to cure his son. In sum, we must go for a fair world. Where human beings live together in harmony with nature.
