The very long meeting of the Congressional Finance Committee ended early last night. What was seen there was an “embarrassing walk” to “please seven seats”, instead of focusing on helping the Valencian Community.
The situation experienced last night in Congress seems to him to be an “embarrassing spectacle until the early hours of the morning, of baking the taxes of all Spaniards and the budgets of all to please these seven seats”.
It is for this reason that he asked that “we concentrate a large part of this Conference of Presidents” which will be held in December “on aid in the reconstruction of the Valencian Community, which does not consist of continuing to stifle the rest of Spain, but to stop the concert and the independence quota to save by seven votes all the negotiations we are witnessing in Congress, and know how to redirect the contribution of all Spaniards where it is most needed .
However, we fear that “they are not in there, they are in something else. I therefore hope that the priorities of the Conference of Presidents will be focused and that all the points requested by the Autonomous Communities will be discussed.
On the other hand, the president also raised the possibility that the civil servants who are now taken care of at the health level by Muface be transferred to Social Security, as the central government seems to understand. “I just hope that the government will open its eyes and realize that it cannot further collapse the health system, which is already so affected throughout Spain,” Díaz Ayuso said.
The president recalled that “there is a lack of doctors, there is a lack of funding for certain treatments and for medicines.” We do not see, in the case of cancer, for example, that it is insane that a system like ours, already so strained throughout the country, absorbs 1 and a half, 2 million civil servants who will suddenly block the system. “I don’t know if that’s what they’re looking for, but they’re going to get it.”
The people harmed by this change, assures the head of the Madrid executive, will be “the usual and all the patients”. Because only in the Community of Madrid, thinking that if we increase by 120,000 inhabitants per year we are going to add 300,000 to 400,000 new people, that amounts to blocking the waiting lists. This means harming treatments. “It’s crazy.”
And he asks himself “if it worked well, why destroy the things that work?” He also called for coordination between ministries, “because, to make matters worse, they all get along badly. “Let’s let the Civil Service talk to Health and find a solution to this, because taking Muface away from civil servants doesn’t cross the minds of anyone other than those who want to break up the system.”
