La corrupci\u00f3n esquilma al Estado y a la sociedad anualmente con cerca del 2% del Producto Interno Bruto (PIB), equivalente a m\u00e1s de 150 mil millones de pesos, una suma superior al presupuesto de Salud, pero la gran desgracia que representa ese flagelo es que hace tiempo se incrust\u00f3 en el tu\u00e9tano social.<\/p>\n
Me imagino que la mayor\u00eda de mis lectores tildan de exagerada esa cifra, pero tengan en cuenta que 30 a\u00f1os atr\u00e1s el da\u00f1o fue estimado en RD$30 mil millones, cuando el PIB real ascend\u00eda a US$21 mil millones, lo que al d\u00eda de hoy sobrepasa los 120 mil millones de d\u00f3lares.<\/p>\n
Duele decirlo, pero la prevaricaci\u00f3n se aloja en todos los estamentos y huecos del quehacer nacional, en instituciones c\u00edvicas, religiosas, castrenses, deportivas, acad\u00e9micas y policiales, por lo que se define como la industria m\u00e1s lucrativa del ensamblaje econ\u00f3mico nacional.<\/p>\n
La situaci\u00f3n se agrava con la irrupci\u00f3n del narcotr\u00e1fico que ha infectado infectar instituciones vitales del gobierno y del Estado, aun cuando se admite que las autoridades realizan ingentes esfuerzos par \u201cdesgarrapatizar\u201d a las instituciones p\u00fablicas.<\/p>\n
En contraste con muchos a\u00f1os atr\u00e1s cuando corruptos y corruptores sufr\u00edan del escarnio de la poblaci\u00f3n por su enriquecimiento il\u00edcito, hoy se abren de par en par las puertas de los privilegios econ\u00f3micos, pol\u00edticos y sociales a personas f\u00edsicas y jur\u00eddicas de notable comportamiento delincuencial.<\/p>\n
El presidente de la Suprema Corte de Justicia (SCJ), Luis Henry Molina, y la procuradora general, Yeni Berenice Reynoso, deber\u00edan saber que falta a\u00fan un enorme trecho para que el Orden Judicial y el Ministerio Publico cumplan cabalmente con su misi\u00f3n de lanceros contra toda forma de corrupci\u00f3n y cohecho.<\/p>\n
Durante muchos a\u00f1os, el Estado ha sido depredado por funcionarios corruptos y empresarios c\u00f3mplices en la conculcaci\u00f3n de extensos predios de vocaci\u00f3n inmobiliaria, tur\u00edstica y agropecuaria, la dislocaci\u00f3n del mercado interno con pr\u00e1cticas desleales de comercio y empresarial, como monopolio, oligopolio, evasi\u00f3n y contrabando.<\/p>\n
Los esc\u00e1ndalos del Senasa y del Centro Oncol\u00f3gico de Santiago se presentan como muy dolorosos ejemplos de una epidemia \u00e9tica y moral, que ha contagiado hasta los servicios de salud, pero tambi\u00e9n al movimiento ol\u00edmpico a trav\u00e9s de varias federaciones y asociaciones deportivas. No se exagera si se afirma que la met\u00e1stasis de ese c\u00e1ncer se extiende por todo el tejido social.<\/p>\n
La corrupci\u00f3n se combate en tres frentes: Educaci\u00f3n, justicia y prevenci\u00f3n, pero ning\u00fan remedio servir\u00eda para detener ese mal, sin la resuelta voluntad pol\u00edtica del Estado, gobierno, liderazgo pol\u00edtico, gremios empresariales y sociedad toda.<\/p>\n
