"Spain is 20 families. As much. But it could be worse. Mexico is 10."
This phrase was uttered by an economist linked to the English business world, you can read this article along with other pearls of the same caliber and poor punctuation.
Which brings us to the main theme; Who are these families, and the power they have.
It's like Matrix ; live in a virtual reality that we have put forward to hide the intricacies of Machine:
"In theory we are free and have rights, but without money we have freedom of movement or right to decent housing.
"In theory we live in a democracy, which means a people's government, but in reality we can only choose a few representatives governing for us. These rulers will leave the office and having served well to certain people with money are rewarded with fees paid ( Zaplana in Telefónica, with a million euros a year without having any idea telecommunications Schroeder in the Russian Gazprom ) and with conferences ( Aznar, Felipe Gonzalez, Tony Blair, Bill Clinton ) paid by the figures that no one can believe that is a fair price (Clinton claimed a million dollars to one this is like ads "sell for 100 euros a pen input and soccer gift" ).
- banks pay the campaigns of political parties . According to data from ECA (p. 56: the PP should be 16 million, pg. 60: the PSOE is 51 million. Data from 2005), political parties represented in parliament due to the banks as much as 144 million euros, and therefore no longer receive credit as if they are happening to many employers in these times of crisis. Not to mention that often these debts are forgiven, and that until recently were allowed anonymous donations. It was curious to see the PP as interested in La Caixa Endesa not control ("Danger donations?) and then the president of Endesa (Pizarro ) out to the 2008 elections presented as a future minister of the PP. After the electoral failure Pizarro retreated slowly, and Rajoy said literally that would thereafter make his own team , showing that his former team had not done it but it had imposed.
"beyond certain levels, the relationship between business and politics is straightforward. Much more than most people suspect. A direct telephone call, mobile to mobile, without secretaries involved."
-Banks also media control , which creates the virtual reality and deprives us of the information needed to govern.
Go back to the people asked "Who are these families? few clues in this article Audience: a select group of 20 families and businesses control about 37.1% of Ibex.
Now let's analyze one of these families; the March. Most English do not know exist, because they almost never talk about them even control many major companies. And that's a little hint of the simile with Matrix. Juan March Ordinas (1882-1962) Smuggler was a Spaniard who became rich, he got the monopoly of snuff in Morocco, was enriched further, founded a bank, and funded the rise of Franco in 1936 . Franco was the banker and one of the owners of Spain in the shadows until his death.
As we do not have secret contacts in high places will comply with using the Internet to collect data on this family. It is obvious that the amount of information that we find is limited, but we will some idea of \u200b\u200bits power.
Banca March: the family's private bank, one of the top ten English banking income over 12,000 million euros. It is also the principal shareholder of the investment company "Corporación Financiera Alba" , co-chaired by brothers Juan March Delgado and Carlos March Delgado .
Who are the shareholders of the Corporation ? The above Banca March with more than 34% stocks, 5 of the March family to share the rest, and 3% who have Bestinver. Alba is, therefore, a family business. Alba's assets exceed 4,500 million euros, and particpate in 23% of Acerinox , 22% of the construction company ACS , 20% of the Clínica Baviera, 10% of Indra , and 10% of Prosegur . It also holds shares in Carrefour and buildings worth 240 million. Do
influence the media? Of course. Contributed 15% of capital for the foundation of Canal Plus (Arta Investment SA), 35% of Sogetel , Media Planning Group ( group Havas , the world's sixth largest advertising and communications) and a counselor at PRISA (Leopoldo Rodés, father of Fernando Rodés, the head of Havas).
An outline of family history we can read on: March Family
Carlos March is a member of the Trilateral Commission , which is the group that is above the Bilderberg Club . (Article mentions March 1985: http://www.elpais.com/articulo/economia/SOLANA_MADARIAGA/_LUIS_/EX_PRES/_TELEFONICA_-_EX_DTR/_RTVE/COMISION_TRILATERAL/socialista/Luis/Solana/nuevo/miembro/Comision/ Trilateral/elpepieco/19850202elpepieco_2/Tes )
And that's all for now. It is clear that only internet we can not know how many properties they have, because it can control a company with less than 5% of its shares and will only be declared from this figure, beyond what can be controlled indirectly through nominee companies or people you trust. To end an extract of the magazine Crisis (remember the kid who swindled banks a few thousand euros and fled? He spent some of that money to publish this magazine) who assures us that also control and Union Fenosa Iberdrola . It could be the time of writing the journal, ACS is the principal shareholder of Iberdrola, and so was Fenosa until it sold its shares to Gas Natural.
