20% hike in fuel prices, uptick in electricity and domestic LP gas prices, failed education regorm, failed taxation reform, failed energy reform, 40% devaluation of the peso since EPN became predident, his approval rating being the lowest of any modern Mexican president....etc...etc... Like I say, if the world only new what was really happening in Mexico, things might change here a little. The past two days have seen protests and civil disobediance in 20 states including looting in approx 1,000 stores across the republic ftom Oxxos to large scale shopping plazas. Not to mention highway and city blockades by trucks and buses. No news about it in Canada? Serious enough that the looters kept up during warning shots by military. Today, many stores didnt open even though tonight is the traditional Three Kings Celebration when most children receive the big gifts during the holiday season. It is good that you asked.
