「仕事＝金儲け」という効率のよさを選んで、日本人は「仕事から派生する人間関係の幸福」を捨ててしまった。仕事の効率が悪いほうが、そこで働く人間たちは豊かな人間関係を持つことができる、そういう考え方をもう一度してみるべきだと思う。

Morales calls for 'reparations to the earth

ボリビアの大統領が地球環境の保全と人々を搾取から救うためには、カネ儲けが一番でなんでもカネに換算しカネでしかものが手に入らないというよく考えるとヘンテコリンな社会を構築するところの「資本主義」からの脱却を訴えました。
むかしは自給自足や物々交換が主流で、お金は補助的なものであったはずだと、オレは思うよ。

Morales calls for 'reparations to the earth'
At UN forum on indigenous issues, Bolivian president calls for global economic overhaul

Wednesday April 23rd, 2008

Bolivian President Evo Morales outlined a plan at the UN on Tuesday to rescue the world from environmental degradation and injustice. Drawing connections between free-market economics, excessive consumption, environmental problems and social injustice, the Bolivian leader urged the world to “put an end to the exploitation of human beings and the pillage of natural resources” by rejecting free-market theory and reallocating the money spent on war to fighting environmental and climate problems.

Transcript:

VOICE OF ZAA NKWETA, PRESENTER: At the United Nations on Monday, the opening ceremony for the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues was addressed by Bolivian President Evo Morales. Morales, an Aymara Indian, drew on his experiences as an indigenous leader to outline his plan to save the planet.

EVO MORALES AYMA, BOLIVIAN PRESIDENT (SUBTITLED TRANSLATION): If we want to save the planet earth, to save life and humanity, we have a duty to put an end to the capitalist system. If we do not put an end to the capitalist system it's impossible to imagine that there will be equality and justice on this planet earth. This is why I believe that it is important to put an end to the exploitation of human beings and to put an end to the pillage of natural resources; to put an end to destructive wars for raw materials and for the market; to the plundering of energy, particularly fossil fuels; excessive consumption of goods and the accumulation of waste. The capitalist system only allows us to heap up waste.

NKWETA: The Bolivian president also proposed that money spent on war should instead go to repairing the world's rapidly deteriorating environment.

MORALES: We would also like to propose that the trillions of money earmarked for war should be channeled to make good the damage to the environment, to make reparations to the earth.

NKWETA: Morales also spoke out against using crops to produce biofuels, saying that biofuels are increasing the cost of food.

MORALES: The price of food has gone up tremendously, especially wheat, as well as bread. In Bolivia we are having inflationary problems, but this is not an internal problem, because its an external problem. This morning I was saying, for once I agree with the World Bank and the IMF. They say that this story of biofuels is going to raise food prices.

日記

ハンターハンターの新刊を買い熟読を繰り返す。。図書カードで買って、あと300円くらい残っている。横浜東口のキンクロハジロはロシアに帰ったようだ。ダイブを繰り返していた姿が懐かしい。インスタントチャンポンをあの店で買って、ごま油も買った。今日は食ってもくっても腹がへる感じだ。。ゆうがた金本が2000本安打を達成したニュースを聞く。阪神勝利。これで10勝3敗の貯金7！ここしばらく5割でも他のチームは追いつくのが難しいはずだ。たとえば現段階で4勝8敗の借金4の読売が貯金7を作る為には11勝しなければならないのだ。しかし今岡はもうだめなのか？知床旅行の写真を見返ししていたら、また北海道に行きたくなった。知床五湖の原生林はほんとうに太古の森のようで、原始時代…（までいかなくても江戸時代くらい？）にもどったような感覚がした。下の写真は四湖のあたりです。
