yesterday | comment | added | Obie 2.0 | And obviously, they got rich through their own efforts, so they deserve to have more than everyone else. So they have to become authoritarians and suppress the new generation of progressives, who don't understand the crucial distinction between this previous generation of rich people getting rich while poverty increases, and the even older generation, which did the same thing, but in a non-revolutionary way. This is probably how you end up with a (center?) right wing billionaire CEO who also happens to be a VP of a socialist international. | |
yesterday | comment | added | Obie 2.0 | @Rekesoft - The typical trajectory tends to go something like this: a relatively young populist leader gets into office promising to tax the rich and redistribute the wealth. They do a great job of this initially: good enough to actually reduce inequality, but usually end up going beyond that, and do such a good job that they and many of their friends end up being rich. Now they have a problem, because they can't prevent the rich from getting richer without hurting themselves and their friends, who are good people, much better than the old parasites! | |

yesterday | comment | added | Rekesoft | @ItalianPhilosopher Lula is a very different type of politician than the rest on that list. He's more on the line of Pepe Múgica. | |
yesterday | comment | added | Italian Philosopher | Well, I agree that South America in general has a massive inequality issue that needs addressing. Trouble is most of the attempts in that direction have generally been very naive, dogmatic and economically inept and have tended to kill the golden geese. About the only clever one, off the top of my head is the Bolsa Familia thingy under Lula 1.0 in Brazil, a cash benefit to the very poor. You can fleece, a bit, under-taxed folk. But at some point you need to grow the economy as a whole. Otherwise, even if you don't flame out right away like Chavez, you end up with Argentina instead. | |
yesterday | comment | added | Rekesoft | @ItalianPhilosopher Like Chavez or Castro, Morales did score a few great hits in his first years as president, such as halving extreme poverty. When you have a country with an unequality worth of medieval Russia or prerrevolutionary France is not surprising that any idiot who promises fleecing the rich and powerful not only gets elected, but actually delivers progress. I mean, their rich and corporations really needed a good fleecing... the problem is how to proceed from then on, since there was no plan B. | |
2 days ago | comment | added | Italian Philosopher | Good putting into perspective. That still makes for a rather explosive contrast to his opponents, in a very poor country, where the large, and very poor, Indigenous population seems to hold the view that the government fleecing "the rich and big corporations" is the secret to sound economic management. That's how Morales got and held the job, and screw it if he has to cheat a bit to keep it too. | |
