Electrical Workers, Students, American Indians, ...

Last night I understood what happened in 2006. I am reading professors' Mize, and Swords, book on the exploitation of my people. "Consuming Mexican Labor". Also I understand what is happening in my hometown, Mexico City, as I write this: Students and Electrical workers, are protesting Televisa's manipulation of the news, for their class benefit.

Most Mexicans are poor, and have to come illegally to the US, to be exploited. These people in Mexico today, want to change that. Another world is possible.

Now I come to the Electrical Workers movement. As part of the neoliberal agenda of Felipe Calderon, the current president of Mexico, he is fighting against one of the most combative unions in Mexican History: The Electrical Workers Union. After the revolution, president Adolfo Lopez Mateos nationalized electric power, in 1964. Calderon too away this resource for the private sector:

"Takeover of Luz y Fuerza del Centro

On 12 October 2009, the police seized the offices of the state-owned Luz y Fuerza del Centro, dissolving the company, laying off the workers, and putting its operations, which supply power to 25 million Mexicans, under the control of the CFE.^[21] According to the government, spending at the company was increasingly outpacing sales^[22]"

 ^{From Wikipedia.}

^{Now the workers and the students are together, demanding the cancellation of the July 1 presidential election.}

^{Televisa is a mouthpiece of Calderon, and Enrique Pena Nieto, who got the majority of the votes in a contested election.}

^{What about the American Indians?}

^{Farmworkers at Postville were American Indians living in Mexico. There is a documentary about the Postville Incident. These people got to the American Continent, before the Europeans did. They know they were forced to come here illegally, as you can find out, reading the book linked above, and then deported wantonly. They are not happy, as soon as they get their act together, they will vote the rascals out. I predict that the political map of the US, will change sometime after 2017.}

^{How so?}

^{I bring the ideas of professor Adrian Bejan to bear on this issue.}

^{He discovered "The Constructal Law." In Nature he says, flow makes future flow easier. When water falls from the Great Divide, to the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, the first time around is hard, but as it keep going down, through the Eons, it becomes easier and easier.}

^{Guess what?}

<sup>The ancestors of the Postville deportees, came here more than ten thousand years ago. That human flow, is not going away!


In 1994 Mexico joined NAFTA, and the original people of Mexico went to war. They did not want to change, as John Womack, very aptly put it. Now they are again fighting to stop the Mexican neoliberal path, taken then, and which is failing. The Community Front in Defense of Land, is again fighting, together with students, and electrical workers, to stop Televisa from lying to Mexico.


Occupy Televisa!</sup>
