Debate in Guayaquil: Ecuador seen by the presidential candidates and their hidden interests

 For the candidates, the most important thing is the votes to win the elections, but we are in a health crisis that has produced many deaths and illnesses and where medical care receives harsh questions, and rapid vaccination is the objective of all candidates. But this pandemic has had a transcendental economic impact, complicating the economic measures that the Lenín Moreno government had implemented in accordance with an agreement with the IMF, which unleashed the wave of unemployment, and deflation that with the pandemic has dimensions never seen before, multiplied by the massive bankruptcy of companies, with the lack of resources from the State and international organizations. It is a crisis of demand and not of supply, because there is everything but there is no one to buy, rent, use, which has triggered an unstoppable deflationary phenomenon, after which a sharp drop in production is looming due to lack of market . As the population has to use their money to pay debts for purchases, public services, education, rent, credit. which, added to the flight of foreign exchange, investments and investors, have caused a very serious economic paralysis. This in turn has generated a political crisis in which the Lenín Moreno government has completely lost the confidence of the population, the laws, authorities, justice, the use of the country's resources, have become loot, lo that has fractured the social peace, generated protests and now a media war of disinformation called the electoral campaign is being waged.

This in turn is complicated because human relationships abruptly changed due to quarantine, social distancing and the use of electronic means of communication, information, study and remote work, creating new forms of discrimination, a new interpretation and visualization of the history, culture, religion, gender relations, race, age, fertility, coexistence that translate into a social crisis.

We are in the rebirth of a migratory crisis, which was painful in 1999 when we experienced the banking crisis and the beginning of dollarization, which now appears as the multiplication of a state of danger, of mortal risk, that after a year of living in anxiety, multiplying poverty, and violence with close people, which is invading neighborhoods, neighborhoods, cities and countries, and becomes visible in the migratory waves of Central America, which are a voice of alert for the United States and all of Latin America where We watched with fear that the same thing that Venezuela experienced will happen to us.

But the dramatic picture would not be complete if it is not mentioned what the environmental crisis is in Ecuador, and Latin America, where the catastrophe is called extinction and air, water and soil pollution, unlike what happens in developed countries, where the critical thing is extreme temperature changes, which cause fires, droughts, floods, frosts, but the environmental crisis, which causes invasion of wild areas, and the animals that inhabit them, cause pandemics. This expansion, pollution, climate change, new speeds, new ways of mobilizing, occupying and using the land, air, sea and water, has to do with an explosion of knowledge and technology, which is changing everything to an inconceivable speed, which prevents a timely reaction.

In this scenario, the 17 candidates for the presidency of Ecuador represent for the first time the greatest option of possibilities. The rich by history and tradition and the rabid populists, come from Guayaquil, with the greatest impudence to dip into the country's wealth. with G. Lasso, I Romero, Abdalá Bucaram's party, His goal is to concentrate wealth in a few hands. Its policy is based on blatant theft and opportunism.

The idealists, moralists, lawyers, and new rich mostly from Quito and Cuenca. There are those linked to the exports of flowers and broccoli by plane, to mining, oil, tourism or construction, these, together with the scholars of the universities, what interests them is to control information, education, justice , the police and the army. Here are the Democratic Left, and Alianza País, Lucio Gutiérrez, They want above all to concentrate information, knowledge, use the law, religion and the armed forces as they have done since 1534. when we were a Spanish colony, their most important political weapon it is treason, lies, double standards and legal or simulated theft.

The third group is made up of the indigenous people of Pchaucutec and the unionists of the state of MPD-UP. who wants to concentrate power with his unions and dispose of the positions, companies and public services, already under his control through unions, of education, health, use of water and land.

Finally there are the correistas with Arauz, who want the distribution of wealth, power and knowledge with the return of SXXI socialism.
