Arcadi Oliveres / Contrattacando. Febrero 2011.

Recuperamos esta intervención de nuestro compañero y miembro del Consejo Científico de Attac, Arcadi Oliveres, en el Contrattacando que organizamos en 2011 en Madrid.
Tras una lucha contra la enfermedad falleció el pasado martes 6 de abril de 2021.
Sus palabras nos entusiasman y emocionan como en este Contrattacando ( para algunos la primera vez que le oíamos) Su mensaje sigue presente y con la misma actualidad. Su impronta en ésta, su familia de Attac, es indeleble.

people. When I arrived on my first time to the Faculty of Economics (as you can supose I'm talking about the prehistory), they told me that economy was that science that attempted to manage the low resources that environment give to us and obtain with them the goods and services for satisfy human needs, and they added "unlimited", that obviously can't be. But obviously the actual economy doesn't response to these values, at all, it moves at some parameters absolutely differents, and what has

@bujinserra Las empresas, sean malvadas o no, hacen lo que les sale rentable, y el dinero que ganan sale de los consumidores, así que hay que mirar bien a quién le damos el dinero. Además, debemos hablar con nuestros representantes, que nos guste o no sí nos representan. Si no reciben quejas, llegarán a la conclusión de que a la mayoría de sus votantes estas cosas no les importan.

great amount of reserves. The petrol countries had a really great amount of reserves. And then there are other countries that have "sovereign founds", not because they are petrol countries, but because they have a really streamlined financial state­ment, as they export so much, and they import really bit. And they are three countries everyone knows: China, Japan and Germany. Well, so China, Japan and Germany, on one side, and the petrol countries on thi other, got a great amount of reserves.

as so many times was said, it was "inflate the bubble". But everyone knows that bubbles, as well as they inflate, they deflate. and there was a momment when the bubble bursted. I'm not going to explain it, because there isn't time, but it started to burst in 1997 in USA, whit the called "sub-prive mortgages". Then, we realized that mortgages had been given for the banks to earn more money really over the price of the building that was being mortgaged. It happens in spain too, if you are qoing to

many months so I can be here with all you this afternoon and try to, if not response to the questions, at least do any exposition. Well, in any case, I'm not going to try, because it would be impossible, too long and I know I'm not the best prepared to do that, to explain the beginnings of this crisis, that are, no doubt, financials. I think that this reference to Sampedro is really appropiate because the economy mustn't serve to earn more money but specially to response to the needs of

function of a bank is to speculate. But they speculated. As they speculated until values got low, they had difficulties to sell them, well, not difficulties, but it would be useless. Second problem of the banks? They didn't recovered the mortgages. As they didn't recovered the mortgages, what did they do? They got the flats. And now we aren't going to enter in the discussion about if the flat has to cancel the mortgages or not (that it has to cancel it), if we have to work for nation instead of

One day I saw in the newspaper "le monde" that said something like "shoemaker, on your shoes", and it didn't any reference to the President of Government (Note: actually, the President of Spain is called Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, and zapatero means shoemaker), it means "bank, act like a bank", get the money from the people who have too much and give it to the people who needs it, that obviously a bank never does, giving money to who needs it, but it's the function of a bank.

what's happening now, but in any case they kept the flats. Flats are an asset, no doubt, but they are not an liquid asset, it keps there and has to be kept, painted, repaired, and so on. and, in third place, american, england, and spain banks got into debt because of it that is now going on the press, and that were called "sovereign founds" (Note: I'm not sure of the correct translation of "fondos soberanos"; this is a literal translation). What are the "sovereign founds"? they are the founds

They save them on a drawer? No way! Because save them on the drawer means that they weren't going to get interest from that. They lended them. To who? Those that ask them for credit. I repeat: USA, UK, Ireland and Spain banks. What term did the "sovereign founds" give those loans? An intermediate term between 5 and 6 years. What did the spanish bank with that? Giving mortgages at 30€, That's obvious that wasn't going to work any way. So eventually the banks had dificulties. They couldn't get

that are owned by the 11 or 12 whealtier countries on currency on the world. And why those 11 or 12 countries are the whealtier countries on currency on the world? Because of two reasons. First, some of those countries are called the "petrol countries". Until the crisis arrived, the petrol got up spectacularly. If you had, for example, Kuwait, that used to sell the petrol at 60$ each barrel, and in the last two years until the crisis arrives you sell it at 160$, it's obvious that you save a

been more real actually is the perversion on the idea of money. People doesn't use as much the money as tool of intermediation to buy or sell items with their salary, but for obtain even more money with the money they had. That's called speculation. In the case of Spain, we've know it well, because in adition to the speculation on the Stock Exchange, we have had a lot of land speculation to the highest expresions. But this speculation, both on the Stock Exchange or on land, what have done

(I didn't spectid it to be so long and hard, even after having watched it) "This was the first problem for banks, that those movable assets that they had, weren't in the best time to be sold, because if they sell them, they only would get back a third of that they had invested in. Why? Because banks had acted bad. they did something they shouldn't have done.

buy a flat that costs one hundred thousand €, the bank gives you one houndred twenty, so you said "my flat only costs one hundred", and them said "no, with this you can buy furniture, you can buy a car, so tell me...", so you get the one hundred twenty and then you can't return that sume. But in the case of the sub-prime mortgages, they weren't giving 120 for 100, sometimes they give you even 500 for 100. That couldn't be met, so it started to get away of the ability from banks to give money and
