Smile! Branco, the acceptable face of slaveryDuderino is back! Abiding in Bolivia's guiding light returned from a short break tonight, and among three or four other posts (he must have been bottling them all up), he's found an absolute, total, essential must read report on the way Santa Cruz landowners treat their slave force (they call them workforce, but you'll see I'm right when you read the article). This is the link, so go there right now and get an education.
Therefore, when multimillionaire, mega-landowner, racist shit and arch troublemaker Branco Marinkovic says, as he did today, "Those who are causing the violence are from the government, who have deployed violent people against our right to express ourselves and fight for our rights and for democracy", the way he treats the people mentioned in the F24 report is this idea of 'democracy' he mentions to a lapdog press corps. To give you a taster;
"All her life, Ines has worked without being paid. "I don't know how much I should have been paid. They gave me old clothes - that was how they paid me", she says. Today, in this remote corner of southern Bolivia, an estimated 2,000 families continue to live in semi-feudal servitude and debt bondage. Year after year, many workers find themselves trapped into paying back debts to their employers, which cancel out any meagre wages they earn."
Marinkovic should consider himself lucky he lives in Bolivia; anywhere else and he'd be in jail by now.
