In November 2013, the Deusto publishing house published 'Public pirates', 368 pages of data and analysis to demonstrate what today seems evidence, but then it did not seem so: that the great recession was being used by organized networks of corsair bureaucrats to capture and exploit the regulatory capacity of the State and assault the hard core of the welfare policies; Like before, the eighties crisis was used to take assault and distribute the loot of the public industrial sector.

The disastrous reality of the economic cadres accompanied him a corsair neoliberal speech where everything was better than a public sector that had to deteriorate by questioning their reliability and equity, decapitalize with massive cuts and finally dismantle to transfer the business to private operators. So the pirates seemed to me a somewhat daring metaphor, today it seems to me that it fell short and timorata.
