by Usuari@s solidarios con la huelga de Metro

Los usuarios y usuarias solidarias con la huelga del Metro entendemos que:

1. En la huelga del Metro nos sentimos reflejados todos los trabajadores y trabajadoras que hemos sido afectados por las medidas tomadas con la excusa de la crisis (bajada de salarios, merma de nuestros derechos, subida edad de jubilación, precariedad)

2. Nos sentimos solidarios porque estas medidas, que ahora afectan a los trabajadores del Metro, se nos imponen con la excusa de la escasez, cuando en estos años nunca han faltado miles de millones de euros para rescatar a los bancos, entidades financieras y grandes empresarios.

3. Porque los trabajadores del Metro están encarnando el lema “nosotros no pagaremos la crisis” en el que nos sentimos identificados.

4. Que el Metro ha sido la pieza fundamental para poner en valor el territorio de Madrid (el Metro nunca ha vivido de vender billetes, sino de recalificar suelo, donde llega una parada se construye un nuevo barrio) y que eso ha hecho multimillonarios a promotores inmobiliarios y constructoras.

5. Que al igual que esos grandes beneficios nunca se repartieron y se acumularon en grandes cuentas bancarias, patrimonios desmesurados y paraísos fiscales, tampoco hoy se puede pedir que los que menos tenemos seamos solidarios para salvar un sistema que nunca repartió sus riquezas a lo largo y ancho del mundo.

6. Que bajar los salarios en tiempos en el que las grandes fortunas no sólo no decaen sino que crecen, con la coartada de la crisis es un insulto a la inteligencia.

7. Que los trabajadores y trabajadoras del Metro tienen todo el derecho a ponerse en huelga general y que muchos trabajadores precarios miramos con envidia esta capacidad de lucha ¡ójala todos y todas pudiésemos plantarnos ante el jefe y decirle no, ya basta, no me bajarás el salario!

8. Que animamos a todos y todas los trabajadores precarios, a las trabajadoras domésticas, a los trabajadores de todas las partes del mundo que habitan Madrid y a los que menos tienen a que piensen en cómo unirse y luchar para que no nos quiten lo que es nuestro al grito :¡Nosotros no pagaremos vuestra crisis!

9. Que queremos apoyar esta huelga porque es una huelga que defiende los derechos de los trabajadores de Metro y defiende la dignidad de todos y todas.

10. Que esperamos que la fuerza, el coraje y la solidaridad que demuestran los trabajadores del Metro sea contagiosa, si es así…las recibiremos con una sonrisa.

Join the " Usuari@s solidarity with the Metro strike blog "
In Solidarity with the Madrid Metro Strike has opened a blog to express the support of groups and individuals with the striking subway workers .

Needless to say, this is the first major strike against the crisis , and the factor of radicalism and its significance is that it is the first concrete struggle and confrontation against the rhetoric of crisis. We say deal with all your goddamn crisis; we are not guilty and not going to pay your crisis .

We have therefore opened a blog in solidarity with the strike from which to influence opinion, and provide support materials : http://usuariossolidarios.wordpress.com/ .

It is important that you leave comments of individual and collective support , as the trump card that the politicians are playing is the lack of sympathy for the workers in the Metro and leaving them isolated with the excuse that no one supports them .

If this strike is won it will be a giant step towards having a more eventful autumn , if it is lost it will be another missed opportunity and the cutback politicians will have an easier road -cutting salaries , pensions, the domestic deficit ( health, education , precarious employment ...)
--------------------
We welcome you with a smile

Metro Users in solidarity with the strike of Metro we understand that :

1. The strike At Metro represents all the workers who have been affected by measures taken under the guise of the crisis (lower wages, loss of our rights , raising of the retirement age, precariousness)

2. We feel great solidarity against these measures, which now affect Metro workers and are imposed on us under the pretext of scarcity, when in these recent years there have never failed to be missed billions of euros to rescue the banks , financial institutions and big business.

3. Because Metro workers are embodying the slogan " we will not pay the crisis " with which we identify .

4. That the Metro has been the cornerstone of land prices in the territory of Madrid ( Metro has never existed to sell tickets , but to reclassify land where placing a stop makes a new neighbourhood) and that this has made multimillionaires of developers and construction companies .

5. That as these great benefits were never distributed and accumulated in large bank accounts, excessive assets and tax havens we can now ask that we have the minimal support to save a system that shared wealth across the world.

6. To lower wages in times in which the great fortunes not only do not decay but grow under the guise of the crisis is an insult to intelligence.

7. That subway workers have every right to a general strike that many workers and casual workers look on with envy is an ability to fight that we wish all could bring before the boss and tell him no, that's enough , I will not have lower wages !

8. We encourage everyone precarious workers, domestic workers , workers from all parts of the world that inhabit Madrid and those who have less to worry about how to join and fight with us so that they will not take away what is ours , to cry: We will not pay your crisis!

9. We call for support this strike because it is a strike that defends the rights of workers in the Metro and defends the dignity of all of us.

10. We hope the strength, courage and solidarity shown by subway workers is contagious , if so ... we welcome you with a smile.
