What's important nowadays for parties? To just point themselves under the neverending rain of insults? To win the elections? To reach the power?
In Spain, we've got almost the same two-party system as in the UK or the US. And they do the same, it's all about winning or losing; and if you lose it's about being on the second place and show the winner is wrong to reach the power in the next four years. What debates we've got in our Parliament? There are no problems put in there: just an useless mutual insult chatter which basically states "You are wrong, I am right and would do better if I were in your place". They say that when you don't have the solutions for a problem you don't care about it and try to appear you're right using the appropriate arguments and hiding the rest. We've got to fear, not the ideologies, the parties or the law, but the powerful men who are proved wrong. They can direct us to ways we're not intended to go, just because of their stubbornness. You want examples? Let's talk about the crisis; in my country the director of the Central Bank offered the President a plan, two years ago. "We've got a better plan Mr. Director" said the President "But it'll be helpful to have an optional plan, Mr. President" replied the director. Anyway, the stubborn president said "We can get by on our own". Mr. President didn't want anybody have better ideas than his; and now Spain is still suffering hard from the economic crisis. Oh, you thought the rest of the parties had better ideas too? They just pointed out the President as guilty and called him too many things, none of them worth remembering. Anyway, you can ask them (and I did ask my parent, who works in the Deputy Congress) if they have anything else, but it seems that they just want to reach the power by disqualifying their opponents. So please, government, don't ignore the facts just to keep your asses in your places. We haven't chosen you for that.
