It has not been a coincidence that the true allies of the alliance PRIANREDE–right It was not the non-politicized citizens on the verge of a nervous breakdown, but the Economic interests and financial of the capital that since 1976 have imposed the speculative development model with the artificial manipulation of the Stock Exchangehe exchange rate and social fears.
The economic and financial right appeared just after the social-electoral right had accepted the opinion of the urns and with speculative decisions that right brought down the price of Actions in the Bag and caused an upward adjustment in the exchange rateonly with the aggravating circumstance that their own utilities and riches They had to be sacrificed in order to frighten the voters.
In this context, the true systemic struggle is not between the new dominant bloc of Brunette and allies in the form of a popular project that can be comfortably synthesized in populism and the financial right that took to the streets to fight tooth and nail for the fascist ideological triad: life, truth and freedom.
The authentic fight for Mexico in the scenario of democracy-development model has occurred among the progressive political sectors – including the PRI and to BREAD in its past times of ideas– and the interests of big capital that imposed the model of mixed capitalism with business dominance, that fought the social policy of Echeverría and López Portillo, that generated the financial crisis of devaluation with inflation and that adopted the model neoliberal of Miguel de la Madrid Hurtado, Carlos Salinas de Gortari and Ernesto Zedillo Ponce de León, extended in the electoral transition with alternation but maintaining the axis of real power in the Ministry of Finance controlled by the Mexican Chicago boys as children of Milton’s neoliberalism Friedman.
The speculative assault on the Stock Exchange and to the peso after the elections on June 2 that forcefully decreed a presidential majority that had not been seen since 1988 and a new qualified progressive legislative majority showed the undeniable dispute for the nation between two projects: the neoliberal market that had kept under submission in many ways to the State and the presidents of the cycle of electoral and popular democracy that was expressed in the governments of Lázaro Cárdenas, Echeverría and López Portillo and was consolidated with greater legal, legitimate and electoral force with Lopez Obrador.
What the pink tide marches and the right-wing discourse strengthened by the intellectuals of the neoliberal establishment did not achieve, the speculative offensive on the stock market and the exchange rate did, although, as already seen, without intimidating President López Obrador or to the winning candidate Sheinbaum Pardo because the two already made the decision endorsed at the polls to reform institutions that were at the service of the interests of big capital.
After the malicious speculative assault on the stock market and the exchange rate, now what is coming is again the dead man’s bag that investors will not come to Mexico due to a populist government of State hegemony over development and that many of those who already They could pack their bags and look for other countries that will receive them with their insulting corporate profit rates.
Except that it is a false media battle: all the capital settled in Mexico and those that may come know that they will be able to have high rates of profit if they adjust to the new legal regulations and if they do not set the immediate objective of subduing them under their command. to the State and its officials. Foreign direct investment had never arrived like in the populist times of López Obrador in the National Palace and conflicts only arose in those areas that President Enrique Peña Nieto and his advisor Carlos Salinas de Gortari handed over to foreign investment in energy areas. .
The dispute for the nation between national-foreign speculators and the new qualified presidential and legislative majority is going to deepen tensions in the non-institutional decision-making system, but now with a stronger public apparatus, like a State that will recover spaces of authority that were ceded to a bureaucracy of civil servants hired by the State with high salaries to oppose the State and a majority that could soon take to the streets to exhibit the speculative impunity of big capital.
What is clear is that the electoral democracy that citizens voted for wants to become a dictatorship of capital by artificially causing economic and financial crises to subdue the authority of the State.
