Why Are People Posting Numbers On Their Facebook?

"Drivers should charge more"

"Nobody so far has dared to touch. The government is to prevent this from happening again, and not going to shake his hand. "-Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba, Deputy Prime-

is already clear what the toy is ready to rock in the upcoming holiday season: the air traffic controller. Sponge Bob or Barbie or, if I were a manufacturer and would at this time a collection of dolls resistant to shock, stomping, pinching and spitting so that no citizen is left without a driver rubber on which his anger.

drivers are said to charge too much, but it is not true. I would say are underpaid for their service. To make matters worse, air traffic control which is not exactly easy-as well play a role irreplaceable social and very much needed in troubled times: channel the discontent.

all need someone on whom to dump the accumulated anger. And we're very pissed off lately, the authorities are concerned because we are not missing targets for our anger, lest any day stray shot and end up directing this rage against whom we should not.

and controllers are ideal for this: few, nobody knows what they do, look like elite - 'caste', 'aristocracy', is said to them, "earn more than most are inbred, proud and unsympathetic to others, and have a capacity of pressure on his company and would like many. That is, support hate but envy or resentment, because I feel like a glove the most successful derogatory label has in time of unemployment and poverty, privileged. It has been tried with other groups, but none looks so much. Just look anticontrol anger shown by many that not only were affected in the bridge, but in life catch a plane.

But this is not the only social function. They also serve the government to make a show of authority, that authority que no muestra con especuladores, banqueros, Marruecos o el embajador estadounidense. “Quien echa un pulso al Estado sabe que lo pierde”, presume mientras aplasta manu militari a unos controladores que, encerrados en su burbuja, no midieron su respuesta.

Visto así, hasta salen baratos.
