Man and people must always learn from the lessons that events leave us. For the first time in the history of Ecuador, the President of the Republic used the constitutional weapon that we have had since 2008 and sent home 137 deputies.

Let them all go,” said people who, for the most part, welcomed the measures. But after the dance and with a hangover, we realize that it brought us more than good, serious consequences and consequences, and what’s worse, probably reliving the same thing again.

If parliamentarians, with an unpopularity of 91 to 96 percent, some accused of corruption, bribery, collecting tithes, drug trafficking, etc., can return to the Parliament, and the president can also run for re-election, as mandated by the Constitution itself, we ask ourselves: what is the advantage or gain of this farce? Even more so with the ironclad vote that will be implemented, which makes it impossible for the people to choose.

Unemployment and disinvestment have increased, there is great nervousness on the market, and the situation is worsened by the uncertainty of who will replace those who left. Let’s add that, although we lack money to invest in education, health and other basic needs, we have enough money to spend 109.34 million dollars – according to the digital media Primicias, the first of this month – in the early election process. And the economic instability will last until the election results are known, and depending on them we will see if we will be internationally credited.

We invite the academy to take over the task of gathering the best constitutional defenders in Ecuador…

What lessons should be learned from this foundation? That what had happened was harmful to the country and that, therefore, the magna carta must be modified to suppress the death of the cross; that we must reform the rules relating to the impeachment of the President; that it is necessary to increase the conditions for the president and members of parliament; that we must eliminate the Council for Citizen Participation and Social Control, since the power to appoint the heads of state control bodies is concentrated in the hands of four people, who could belong to the same party or political movement, and the costs of its maintenance were 153 million dollars in 14 years; and enable people to access hourly work, among other things. It is not possible that only 3 million people have the right to full employment while more than 5 million people are in the informal sector. We must also analyze the structures of political parties and movements.

We invite the academy to take on the task of bringing together the best constitution makers in Ecuador, not foreigners, in order to create a new magna carta in accordance with our problems and peculiarities, gathering the lessons left by the application of the one that remained. us., prepared at the last moment between roosters and midnight in 2008, and the legal provisions on collateral were revised.

It’s time to leave the comfortable chair and go out on our own.

Let us learn from the tragic lesson that the application of the current constitution leaves us. (OR)
