Despite all the discussions in plenary Pinatarenses from the municipal government announced a rise of IBI in about 6% over the previous year, the reality exceeded by more than 100% of these forecasts.

Although it is a relief to municipal coffers is, undoubtedly, a blow to many households and businesses of our local neighbors.

It so happens that that rise comes at a time when any assessment of real property that we make will result in a reduction in the property valuation of at least 40% less than four years, so it is still an unexplained rise more real as that which occurred.

Our elected officials with responsibility for Government are based on the increase ordered by the Central Government to justify such a blunder, but the fact is that since the local government there are methods that can alleviate this disproportionate increase, such as lowering the tax rate on property general, and in the absence of these methods can be created.

Not appear to have any sense that with the current economic situation, who have fought all my life to acquire a good, more or less necessary for our survival or reverse mode, now or the short term we see the need to leave to pay the same taxes, and losing them by the tax imbalances that from central governments, regional or local authorities are doing, and that are impossible to meet given the poor liquidity situation of families and businesses owners of these properties today.

Without wanting to blame anyone in particular for these imbalances, if I think it is time for all citizens by the relevant claims are made to impress upon our rulers that they are asking is not logical and it is impossible to fulfill, and that if not corrected in a short time in government generated a budget gap that can only be remedied by the massive seizure of property by default, which will only lead to economic and social chaos.

While tax increases are occurring and our present rulers strive to convince us that have implemented austerity in its new management, citizens on foot note with amazement as more and more impoverished us, and no one returns a euro of embezzled.

We meet our obligations are infeasible to comply with legislated, while our politicians and live sumptuously positions of trust to our health and comply with all of us when we asked for help with the famous phrase "we can not help you over the inheritance and the current lack of liquidity, "but their salary, their diets and their privileges remain intact in spite of everything.

I hope that this brief pause to those who do have the power and duty to legislate to allow an orderly coexistence between government and stakeholders, since as we have seen recently in San Pedro Politics is the art of making easier the difficult, and if situations such as the observed IBI inadequate, can and should be corrected to sustainable limits by the managed, and that just is achieved by applying common sense.
