While, Robert Pianelligeneral secretary of the Union Association of Subway and Premetro Workers (AGTSyP), considered: “It seems that the Government is brave in refusing to solve a problem of an important sector of the workers, of those who produce the wealth of this country, and the same does not happen with the large concentrated groups of the economy, with the big businessmen, as they did a special dollar for soy growers”.
“Everyone here is speaking in defense of the interests of the workers, of those who produce in the country, we are in defense of the salary that is not profit.
