Obsesiones políticas

Lo proclamaba Tony Blair en un discurso interesante al comienzo de la presidencia británica de la Unión Europea en el mes de junio. La gente, decía, observa la política con mucha más clarividencia que los políticos. Por la sencilla razón de que no están diariamente obsesionados con ella.

Blair hizo un gran discurso inaugural aunque el semestre de la presidencia británica ha sido tan mediocre que no pasará a la historia de la Unión Europea. Blair, como muchos políticos europeos, como los nuestros, está obsesionado por cuestiones que no conectan con la sociedad.

Está obsesionado por explicar a los británicos por qué tomó la decisión de ir a la guerra de Iraq en contra de la opinión pública y de espaldas a un número nada desdeñable de sus propios diputados. Es una obsesión que persiguió a Aznar en los últimos tiempos de su mandato hasta llegar al punto de decirnos aquello de “créanme, les digo la verdad, hay armas de destrucción masiva en Iraq”.

Todos tenemos obsesiones contra las que es inútil luchar. Son obsesiones que afectan a nuestro entorno familiar, profesional o social con repercusiones proporcionadas al número de gentes afectadas.

Cuando las obsesiones adquieren rango nacional la siniestralidad suele ser mayor. El tripartito se obsesionó en elaborar el Estatut sin reparar en si su contenido era el más adecuado o si pasaría el cedazo imprescindible del Congreso de los Diputados.

El presidente Zapatero aplicó aquello de que “hay que cerrarlo como sea”, y el Estatut recibió todas las luces verdes posibles. Se cerró y pasó, es decir, llegó a Madrid para su discusión.

Las obsesiones del Partido Popular no se han centrado sólo en el Estatut. Han escogido Catalunya como una obsesión que no les deja ver con claridad lo que está ocurriendo. Han señalado el campanario sin molestarse a subirse a lo alto de la torre para contemplar el paisaje.

La obsesión de Catalunya les ciega. Todos los males vienen de Catalunya, la corrupción es catalana, catalana es la vinculación del Estatut con ETA, los catalanes son los que quieren controlar toda la energía de los españoles.

No pasa nada anómalo en Galicia, en Madrid, en Asturias, en Murcia o en Valencia. El peligro se llama Catalunya, que pretende destruir la sagrada unidad de España. Catalunya ocupa páginas y páginas de los diarios siempre poniendo énfasis en la perversidad intrínseca de todo lo catalán. Es una obsesión como la de aquellos enanos de Tolkien que se pasan la vida discutiendo sobre los pelos de su pequeño gran dedo de los pies.

  2. Once elected, Blair's ascent was rapid, and he received his first front bench appointment in 1984 as assistant Treasury spokesman. In May 1985 he appeared on BBC's Question Time arguing that the Conservative Government's Public Order White Paper was a threat to civil liberties.[21] Blair demanded an inquiry into the Bank of England's decision to rescue the collapsed Johnson Matthey Bank in October 1985, and embarrassed the government by finding a European Economic Community report critical sportsbook
    of British economic policy that had been countersigned by a member of the Conservative government. By this time Blair was aligned with the reforming tendencies in the party, headed by leader Neil Kinnock, and was promoted after the 1987 election to the shadow Trade and Industry team as spokesman on the City of London. In 1987, he stood for election to the Shadow Cabinet, with a good show of 77 votes.

  3. A lot of people ask me how I like living in Costa Rica. My answer is, it was the best decision that I made in my life. I came to Costa Rica 7 years ago on a vacation and quickly fell in love with the beauty of the country and the hospitality of the people here. I couldn't wait to come back. I started coming here about 4 times per year and always had a great time and didn't want to leave. Two years ago, I decided to leave Arizona and come live in Paradise. I can not tell you how happy I am that I made that decision. Today, I wake up next to the ocean and run on the beach every morning. I eat the most delicious fruits, vegetables and fresh seafood. My stress levels are much lower than when I was living in the States and the potential here for investing, truly is unlimited. The best part of living here is showing our clients this country. I really don't feel like I have a job for the first time in my life. The joy I receive when I see the look on people's faces when they get into the warm water of the Pacific ocean is truly priceless. For those of you that have come and discovered paradise, you know what I am talking about. For those of you that are on the way, I can't wait to get you here. And to those who are thinking about Costa Rica, please do yourself a favor and come down. You will have the time of your life.

    I invite all that interested person to know a little on my Web site
    PRECONSTRUCTION CONDOS IN COSTA RICA
    Purchasing a condominium before the construction begins is a way for developers to get the working capitol they need for their projects and for investors to save money on the finished product. Many times investors are able to resell the condominium for a profit before the work is complete, and in some cases condos have sold multiple times with multiple profits before there anyone actually took delivery of the real estate.

    This practice is very common in Costa Rica as it provides economic incentives by means of low priced, preconstruction deals to the client, which is mutually benefitial to the developer. The precaution that we take and recommend to our clients, is to be sure that the developer who is building the project, has a proven track record either abroad, or more importantly, here in Costa Rica. Ask your agent to give you some background on the developer, and the team involved in the project including the architect, builder, and developer

    Condos In Costa Rica.

    What is a condominium?
    A condominium is a type ownership where certain parts of the property (the units) are owned by individuals, and certain parts (the common elements) are owned in common by the unit owners, all of whom are members of the condominium corporation (the organization responsible for the operation of the condominium). Ownership of a condominium means you own the specific unit plus individual interest in the common property. You have ownership over all space and improvements within the walls of your unit.
    It is very important to know that you are buying the condominium building first and then the unit, so make sure you like the building and its financial position. I will assist you with this.
    What are condo fees and are there property taxes for condos as well?
    A condo fee is a fee that each owner is charged to cover the expenses of the complex and individual unit. For example, in a high-rise condominium, the condo fee includes all utilities, plus building insurance, management and reserve fund contributions. When the plan is registered at Land Titles for a condominium, a separate title is created for each unit. And shown on each title is the owners share in the common property, which is expressed in "unit factors". This "unit factor" can be based on the units proportionate square footage or the initial market price in comparison to the rest of the complex. A budget is prepared for a condominium complex, and the fees are allocated according to the unit factor of each condominium unit.
    There are also property taxes for condominiums, and they are also calculated based on the unit factor.
