Ordinary citizens, like the one who writes this, support the plan against inflation announced by the government, knowing that its objective is realistic, since it seeks to mitigate the effects of inflation for the majority.
If, as the experts say, lowering inflation to levels of 3% will take 18 months, the presidential election campaigns would already be under way, with all their load of irrational and emotional nonsense.
If, as is possible, inflation and uncontrollable insecurity persist in 2024, they could be a factor of unacceptable destabilization, one supposes that if there were, President López Obrador would not be unprepared, would he?
National Guard, once colored
Better once red than 1,000 faded, warns the old saying, on which the Commander General of the National Guard Luis Rodríguez Bucio should reflect and request support from his superiors.
Incidents in which young National Guardsmen shoot civilians could be a symptom of rushed training, instructions, or budget constraints.
If something is not done, to the human tragedy of the victims of shootings by national guardsmen, is added the human tragedy of a life that is ruined by poor training. When it comes to lives, austerity is also criminal.
Does Marko Cortés want an incomplete INE?
It is undeniable that the gambit of the presidential initiative for electoral reform took the opposition alliance by surprise, because they did not believe that later calling them traitors because of the electricity would ask them to vote for the electoral one.
That would explain why they are confused, so that PAN leader Marko Cortés proposes that in April 2023 the Presidency be denied the qualified majority to elect four INE directors and the institute be left with seven directors.
It is like walking with your eyes wide open to enter the trap that the president has set for the opposition with the electoral reform. Ah, PAN members, to have a leader like that, to be a leader like that.
Swirling Notes
Although the ruling party and its spokespersons cry out like mourners, one must be convinced that democracy costs, at least one like ours whose rules arise from mistrust and from the whims and bad humor of so many leaders, including the current Head of the Federal Executive. It will be inevitable that the Bank of Mexico raises interest rates once the US Fed raised them by half a point, the highest rise in 22 years… With seriousness and dignity, the coordinator of the Morenista majority in the Senate Ricardo Monreal He refused to accept the nickname of corcholata for his aspirations to the presidential candidacy of Morena… Let’s not kid ourselves. If electronic voting were safe, it would be generalized in all democracies… It is unfortunate that the Government of Mexico says that it detains Central American migrants because it cannot guarantee their safety if they transit through the national territory… Another quote from Jaume Perich: “Thank you to freedom of expression it is possible to tell a ruler that he is useless without anything happening to us. Neither does the ruler”…
