Nobody knows very well why the Government
launched a price control with truckers in supermarkets.
Or why now he has changed truckers for piqueteros whom he sends to carry out operations this weekend in Mar del Plata.
It is not supposed to be for them to take a few days of vacation.
A piece of information: the piqueteros are the ones who a month ago
gathered in front of several supermarkets to demand food.
And they gave it to them.
The first thing that occurs to anyone, watching this show, is that the officials of the Economy are at least a little lost, unless they believe, like Pablo Moyano, that
the problem of inflation is that businessmen hide away products to sell them more expensive.
It is an occurrence older than injustice: if inflation were fixed as Moyano says by persecuting businessmen, what, 70 years ago?
that we did not stick it with the recipe.
The problem is that this is not the problem.
Worse still: it aggravates the problem.
We closed the year with inflation of 94.8%,
16 times more than Brazil's 5.9
and 12 times more than Paraguay's 8.1.
Others in the region: Uruguay 8.3;
Chile 12.8;
Peru 8.6, and Bolivia, 3.1.
And let it be known, in none of these countries are Moyanos or picketers running around businessmen.
In which office of delusions did this nonsense reappear?
Do not know, no answer.
Now, for now,
no one takes charge of the paternity/maternity of the idea
, which has very little idea and, again, nothing.
For now it is a way of
trying to get rid of the problem and pass it on to someone else
.
The result: inflation is still alive and kicking and eating up people's incomes.
On Friday, March 18, 22 (the year will soon be over), President Fernández
formally declared war on inflation
.
He was already in the campaign for grand openings: a train station in Tortuguitas.
Very serious and confident, he promised: "We are going to put an end to the speculators."
The Sun is newer.
The excuse this time was the war in Ukraine.
The previous excuse: the pandemic.
Common denominator of the government, rather of almost all or all governments: I, an Argentine,
have nothing to do with it
.
They have put militias in the streets and a group from Grabois says that they
will go out to squeeze merchants
.
Did anyone think
what can happen if any of the task groups get out of hand
?
There seems to be half a backlash, but you can never be sure.
Tightening or reprisals are well liked by K.
Kirchner knew how to make use of the arrogance of the Moyanos.
In 2008 he sent them to run to the pickets of the field, the pickets of the abundance of the owners of the yuyito, and now Massa repeats the formula.
Kirchner must have thought that the chacareros were a docile people.
They went to run them, they ended up running.
There was a pro-farm demonstration in Palermo, Kirchner encouraged another against the farm in Congress.
He is seen: nor is it new to enlarge cracks, nor is it pattering around.
Maybe, yes, the moyanism of black shirts.
Kirchner himself called for a national boycott against Shell because the oil company had decided to raise prices.
"Let's not buy them anything, not even a can of oil," he bellowed.
The Spanish Repsol accompanied the government.
Two years later, Kirchner and the Esquenazi family, from the Santa Cruz bank,
agreed to divide Repsol, which they proclaimed nationalized.
But that is another story.
They are not going to be true that Pablo Moyano convinced Massa that he has a business conspiracy against him.
Strange, because
Massa talks to businessmen as if he were just another businessman.
And the businessmen talk to Massa as if he were one of their own.
In the middle, the government accumulates 300% inflation in three years.
If it is a new show, the country already has enough with the trial of the Court.
It's for noise.
If there are no defections in the opposition,
Kirchnerism has no votes to advance or legal reasons.
Argentina can give Argerich and Barenboim, who break it with the piano in the world.
To Di Stéfano, Maradona and Messi.
To Fangio.
leloir.
Houssay.
Milstein.
To so many others who have been or are serious.
Why do you keep giving politicians and trade unionists that go back thousands of years?
There is something else that should warn politics, their
invented inventions and their marketing tricks
, whether Abbey Road or black T-shirts: who was the true star of the summer these days, authentically famous and applauded on the Coast?
One who was right to speak little: Chiqui Tapia.
At any time they ask you to go out and check the prices.
