The diagnosis of the social leader Juan Grabois is that the social drama of Argentina is comparable to the one that caused the Second World War in Europe.

For this reason, he proposes to launch a project that he defined as the

"Creole Marshall Plan"

, alluding to the postwar actions with which the Old Continent was rebuilt, and which contemplates, among other actions,

populating the rural areas of the country.

And that is the initiative that President Alberto Fernández came out to praise this Friday.

"The basic idea of ​​Juan Grabois, of looking for lands outside the urban centers so that people settle down and exploit them, is an idea to take into account;

it is not unreasonable. It is to regain the habitability of the countryside,

" he said. the first president.

Thus, Fernández not only avoided polemicizing with Grabois, who yesterday publicly demanded that "stop giving in to the factual power", but chose to praise his initiative despite the scandal that the social leader and the militants of his space starred in. evicted from the family property of Luis Miguel Etchevehere, the head of the Argentine Rural Society and former Minister of Agroindustry of Mauricio Macri. 

The President knows the project of the referent of the Excluded Workers Movement (MTE) and the Confederation of Workers of the Popular Economy (CTEP), which was formally called the "

Comprehensive Human Development Plan

".

On August 10, Grabois formally presented the initiative in a ceremony led by Gerardo Martínez (UOCRA), Sergio Sasia (Unión Ferroviaria), Pablo Moyano (Federation of Truckers) and references from SMATA, UTEP, Barrios de Pie and the Popular Front Darío Santillán, among others.

Already last May, Grabois was in charge of advancing his proposal to President Fernández, within the framework of a meeting that the President led at the Olivos residence with the members of the San Cayetano Triumvirate.

We want a Creole Marshall plan

.

Land, roof and work but concrete, forceful, massive and transparent, ”said Grabois at that time. 


Formally, the project proposes "to

create 4 million social jobs and 170 thousand registered jobs regulated

by collective agreement; promote urban integration of popular neighborhoods, access to land and social housing; repopulate Argentina, through of new cities, young towns, organized rural communities and protected horticultural belts and developing new industrial sites through territorial planning that includes new multimodal transport schemes ".

President Alberto Fernández received social organizations in Olivos.

Another of its objectives is "to face the energy transition and develop non-polluting forms of production to advance towards a comprehensive ecology program."

Regarding the

"repopulation of Argentina"

, the Grabois plan seeks to generate "access to own land or social leases on public lands for organized rural communities."

In a 39-page writing, Grabois developed its foundations and detailed how this action will be carried out, which aims to match the reconstruction of post-war Europe promoted by the United States with a colossal injection of resources and that lasted for half a decade.

"The Marshall Plan catalyzed what Professor Beatriz Rajland calls the Keynesian pact. The capitalists gave up a considerable part of their profit and the labor movement renounced the confiscation of the means of production. In Argentina, Peronism recreated this pact to despite the blind resistance of the oligarchic elites, agro-exporters and free traders, "said Grabois in a recent opinion column published on Infobae.com. 


The proposal even includes the creation of "a savings fund in national currency aimed at workers and the middle class at financial market interest rates."

In addition, it proposes the creation of the "Mugica Trust Fund to finance the development of the plan and associated community work modules."

As they explain, "it is an investment of 750,000 million pesos per year with a 33% tax return."
