We are living in times that increase intolerance, ignominy, disgrace and infamy. Not only on the international level due to the case of the terrorist attacks on France. Nemesis is on the loose... also in Mexico attacking philanthropy and generosity. Dolores Padierna published an article in El Financiero , “The Alibi of Philanthropy” (November 19), where she exposes her discontent because the Senate of the Republic awarded the Belisario Domínguez Medal to businessman Alberto Bailleres. She states that... "we must regret that in Mexico, without generalizing, we do not have a business elite that is distinguished by its social commitment, its ethical behavior or its effort to generate wealth without the need to resort to the protection of public power." Denisse Dresser, regarding the publication of the book Slim by Diego Enrique Osorno, said about the businessman: “Someone who, compared to other billionaires in the world, exercises philanthropy that is quite stingy, calculating and that becomes a way of doing politics for others.” means” (in Slim: king of kings”, Reforma November 9). Without having the opportunity to defend anyone, it is worth asking ourselves if we really know the amount that Carlos Slim Helú allocates to philanthropic causes, but at least the support he gives in student scholarships thronder blame, etc.
Nemesis fuels the fire of Padierna, who Phone Number List affirms that: “The neoliberal model has insisted on creating and reproducing a homogeneous discourse that eliminates the citizen – as a source of legitimacy of a democratic system – for a 'citizen participation' focused on primacy of 'volunteering', of 'philanthropy' or, at most, of the 'social responsibility' of companies, alibis that, as all the indicators tell us, have achieved nothing to seriously combat inequality and misery." It is clear that it requires more State, more bureaucracy and only one power: the public. In several liberal countries, governed by the modern left, the three sectors coexist: the public, the business and the citizen, contributing to the common good. But many people believe that true philanthropic practices are those that officials do with public resources to prevent personal money from being donated to organizations that abuse and that prevent “more economic resources from arriving as taxes.” It is clear that she, like many Mexicans who call themselves leftists, are bothered by wealth. It seems that instead of working to generate more wealth, it is only necessary that it be distributed by taking from the rich and giving it to the poor (via the state, the great administrator and only philanthropist). These people pay more attention to their indignity towards wealth, while the poverty of millions is a matter for holding the government in power responsible and is the banner of a supposed opposition.

For many it seems that there is no honest businessman, well-earned wealth or generosity focused on the common good. Of course there are some, as well as bad, lousy businessmen and politicians, some who receive money from businessmen who corrupt from public power. But Nemesis continues to weave bonds of resentment. On the 19th of this mont adds: “These resources are used for the construction of the CRITs. But be careful, we must not forget that the State abandons its obligation to provide the disabled population with their own spaces for recovery and care for this highly vulnerable sector of society, leaving this care in the hands of third parties who craftily divert resources from the taxes that should be paid to the State.” To limit the alleged abuses that Virginia González Melgarejo perceives, she shares in the same publication that Morena, the political party owned by a single man, tried to present a bill "to establish as a crime of tax fraud the deduction of resources from contributions." philanthropic' of third parties (sic). This is in order to prevent these taxes from being paid with other people's money, coming from donations” (sic). González Melgarejo and Padierna undoubtedly wish to awaken the Philanthropic Ogre referred to by Octavio Paz, who confuses government obligations with the philanthropy of the ruler in power who, using public resources for “his old people,” generates a personal benefit from his own public image as It happened with one of the previous Heads of Government whom Padierna and her husband served unconditionally and supported the information on public works costs being kept confidential for several years.
