This is now tangential. Nothing is easy anywhere. Sorry, but I do not share your hero-worship of the man. He is a weak puppet, and it will be revealed in time, but my comments will be forgotten. My hope is not in the man, but the people.
You are missing the obvious: everything has to change, even terrible dictatorships. You can only bleed…

You are missing the obvious: everything has to change, even terrible dictatorships. You can only bleed a system for so long before you need to release, wait, and reshape your hold. This is the stage the country is in currently.
I was a child refugee at 5, an economic immigrant at 49, and I know the “third world” very well. This man needs to do something more than what any person in government should be doing. Until he rebuilds, not just fire people and turn off programs, he is not the hero you make him out to be. Some of his actions looks good fiscally in the short term. As a former architect, when you just turn off large-scale projects, it ends up costing the masses even more. At least Bukele is straightforward and honest.
You cannot fix government. Government IS the problem. If — as you said — “All 'the people' want is for the government to get out of the way” then they should fix the daddy issues that looks to government to do the right thing. No one is a politician until they are one.
You're an interesting guy, Jo. In just a few paragraphs, you went from being 'on the fence' about him to calling him a 'weak puppet.' At any rate, it might make more sense to visit Argentina (or at least talking to some people who actually live there) before jumping to conclusions, especially if you feel so strongly about the subject.
You might see it that way. Perhaps I was merely being polite instead of jumping in with a full opinion. I like positive things in life. The fact is, my precognition has not really failed me during my life, and my answers do not come from the written word.
I've lived in a country with a president like him. I don't feel strongly about this, and as I said, you've gone off on yet another tangent by redirecting this to be all about me. Please do not do that. He has done nothing so far that he shouldn't have. It’s the least he could do. When he rebuilds, and he turns Argentina into what it could be, then you can smugly say I was wrong. As I said, he will not be the saviour you thing he is. I know this not by written words or political nonsense, but from a spiritual place.
The true changes will come from the people, not him. He is weak. I sensed it from the very beginning. I am on the fence because he hasn't done much. Tearing things down is the easy part. Where is his plan to turn the problem into the solution? Even if he were the hero appear to think he is, tell me this: how will he turn something designed to be the problem into the solution? He can't. Mark my words on this: the solution will come from the people, not him.
When you accuse someone of being judgemental, you are projecting yourself onto others. If you understand this, you would further understand that we judge everyone and everything every day. For the record, he has not done more than anyone else thus far, unless you stipulate a time period, and you have not done so. My thoughts stand. If others are allowed to post theirs, allow me to do so to. Have a nice day.

Maybe so. But he has done more than anyone else so far. And keeps doing. Lets at least give him the courtesy not to judge until he stops doing?

>>For the record, he has not done more than anyone else thus far...
This is factually incorrect. He has. Also, the time period is clearly implied as starting when he took office. Duh.
Duh? Okay, end of the discussion right? Perhaps English is not your first language as it isn't mine. Go back and read again. Have a nice day.
Mic drop. Lol. Go take a nap, Mr. 'Have a Nice Day.'
Is that your final answer or would you like to phone a troll?
