With resignation that reminded Gorbachev, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador warned that the six-year period is not enough to dismantle or refound autonomous and decentralized organizations that make him uncomfortable.
It is the recognition that they underestimated those who, for almost 40 years, have built an institutional framework that, although it makes the task of governing more efficient, does not fit with the López Obrador objectives of controlling everything.
The President should not worry about leaving the new institutions half done, he should worry if on September 24 he had to paraphrase Gorbachev: “the old institutions had not disappeared nor were the new ones ready and everything collapsed”.
The social victims, unknown for the 24
Since July 2019, when Carlos Urzúa, the first occupant of the post in the López Obrador government, left the SHCP, his assessment of how Palacio faces reality remains valid: “everything is seen through the electoral political lens.”
However, in the Palace there does not seem to be a willingness to adapt the electoral political strategy to new circumstances, new circumstances due to the collateral damage that public policies leave and will leave throughout society.
Those victims, rightly or wrongly, blame the government for the pandemic, cuts, shortages, impoverishment and unemployment. How many will there be in 2024 and their eventual vote is already the Great Variable of the presidential election.
Health: three years: the elephant is still in the room
The debate broke out yesterday, February 15, February 15, again, in Congress, due to the lack of medicines for children with cancer, which three years ago they say “they are solving” the scientific officials of the health sector.
Incomprehensible that, as was said yesterday, February 15, February 15, doctors Alcocer and López Gatell did not find the 700 million pesos that would require having what is necessary for children with cancer.
The head of the SSA Jorge Alcocer said that they distributed 600 million pieces. There are many? They are few? How many do you need each week? They don’t say or they don’t know and the shortage persists, like a monument to ineptitude.
SWIRL NOTES
Last Saturday it was 63 years since President Adolfo López Mateos created the National Commission for Free Textbooks. Six months later, in September, Don Martín Luis Guzmán produced the first texts for distribution. That, in Christian, is called efficiency… No one knows what fate former presidential candidate Ricardo Anaya will suffer with the FGR’s accusations. For practical purposes, the PAN members could already cross him off their list of possible candidates. C’est fini… yesterday, February 15, February 15, President Andrés Manuel López Obrador had several meetings to review the progress of connection works for the Felipe Ángeles International Airport and make sure that no one is going to go out with his Sunday seven … It remains to be seen in exchange for what the PRI supports Morena’s initiative that wants to change the electoral law in order to return prerogatives, but not to the INE, but to the Government… Moreira gives you surprises, the philosopher would say… The Spanish Ramón Campoamor recalled something that is always forgotten: “freedom does not consist in doing what you want, but in doing what you should”…
