The plundering of our industrial potential

Plunder is not only a reality in poor and distant countries. This habitual practice of capitalism is very close to us. The greed of the multinationals, of the vulture funds, is taking away the present and the future of almost a thousand families in Galicia, those who feed the workers of Alcoa, both in A Coruña and in the Lugo Navy.

According to sources close to the Ministry of Ecological Transition, in the last ten years the American multinational has received around one billion euros in public aid.

When the multinational decided from Pittsburgh that Alcoa workers were no longer useful, they shouted YES WE SERVE. And when, from Switzerland, the funders decided to sell them to a conglomerate called Riesgo, they shouted NO to the plundering of our public resources and our workforce.
