The General State Budget Project, recently presented, consolidates the economic policies of the Spanish Government, based on protecting the activities and incomes of families and vulnerable people in times of crisis and uncertainty. The largest social expenditure in history is reflected, with an unknown proportion of increases in pensions, minimum vital income, dependence and personal assistance, which added to the forty percent increase in minimum interprofessional wages in recent years.

At the same time, with the European Fund, public investment reached record levels and transfers to autonomous communities increased by 24%, ERTES and loans to companies have been implemented in the Pandemic and now with general inflation in the world. adopted, such as free public transport and wholesale caps on gas (the so-called Iberian Exclusion).

This is a policy that protects production, even increases tax collection and gradually reduces inflation, that is, it is just and effective because it benefits the social majority. To a greater or lesser extent, almost all European countries adopt similar policies.
The People’s Party emphatically rejects all government actions and, with a blind eye to the economy, offers its false alternative, namely Tax Cuts, whatever the economic situation. Moreno Bonilla started by removing the Wealth Tax for 0.02% of the richest Andalusians. Of course it does not explain what happened to public services.

Recent events in the UK have shown that this is the wrong policy: the UK government announces general tax reductions, the pound collapses, there is panic in the financial and goods markets, the minister of economy resigns and within forty-five days Liz Truss becomes the most popular Prime Minister. fast in British history.

Have Ayusos, Aznar, Feijóo or Bonilla, who a few days ago praised the clumsy, fanatical and crazy economic program, have learned anything? Will they turn a blind eye to their economy or will they continue this neoliberal delirium? Better not to be deceived.
