Food Line Go Up! Economy Get Better!

the journalist points out when recalling that “only 76 percent of the electoral roll voted, thus being one of the lowest records of all our democratic life”.

I don't think I could point to a US election with better than 76% turnout.

The announcement which is considered to be the most cruel is the suspension of the delivery of free medicines to retirees, who receive minimum pensions. It is impossible for millions of Argentines to make ends meet with the ever-rising increases in foodstuffs and rates for essential services. This is happening for the first time in the history of the period of “democratic recovery”, and it means the death sentence for millions of retirees, who are also beaten and mistreated in their peaceful marches every Wednesday.

Christ. Hard to make a better argument for Juche than this. If a single election can strip millions of their access to industrial produced medication, it is that much more urgent for the people to have the capacity to manufacture the goods that keep them alive.
