No safety image, but yeah... jump!
This piece of shit signed a document with the national teacher coordinators; a syndicate so powerful, corrupt, and unfathomably stupid that it makes me, a left wing, pro-union liberal, cringe at its existence.
These assholes
are the reason my country is like it is.
Deep down every issue with a country can be resolved with education, and for years the teacher’s syndicate has lobbied for archaic rules to stay like the hereditary position, has kept funds for themselves for stupid things like spending 2 million dollars on Saks Fifth Avenue, and has made people die.
The represent millions of people that will vote exactly as told, not because all teachers are bad, but because of the weird and disgusting enviroment in which they work, social pressure really eats at them.
And this piece of shit, asshole who likes Narcos just told them that he would get rid of teacher tests... yes... so that you can be a teacher no matter if you think 2+2 is 4 or 2+2 is 5.
I KNOW teachers are more than this exam, but it is one of the few safeguards that keeps people that actually want to be teachers in the system and keep freeloaders and assholes out of it.
I think it’s probably one of the more populist things a Mexican politician has said, up there with saying they would fix the price of gasoline at 9 pesos per litre... which let me just tell you would be the most expensive subside the gov would make!
So, what’s the most populist thing you’ve heard the local dip-shit say?
/rant over.

“Deep down every issue with a country can be resolved with education”.
Word, man. Education is the silver bullet. Problem is it’s a multi-generational payoff, so damn all politicians care enough to have the fight.
Full of the sound of the Gran Fury, signifying nothing.

There’s a great story about a woman who didn’t mind paying property taxes despite not having children, since a good chunk of that money is going to schools. Her response was that she didn’t want to be surrounded by stupid people.

Enlightened self interest FTW.
My philosophy’s pretty much the same. I’m a classic “chardonnay socialist” - my life’s pretty good, thanks, but my life would be better if everyone else’s was good too, so I’m prepared to invest in paying taxes to make that happen, even if I don’t see much direct benefit.
Of course the link between “invest in taxes” and “other people’s lives get better” is where that philosophy has its issues...

I’m going to use your word “syndicate” now instead of “union.”

Looking at it that way is a bit too “Ayn Rand Objectivism” for me... I feel like it’s a slippery slope that makes one lose hope on the system because of how it has been managed:
I could take an objectivist philosophy both ways: either I can try to make my life as good as possible as to ignore the suffering of others, or I make the well being of others a part of my good life.
Its the difference between wanting to live in the US and wanting to live in Europe. Many of my friends have the capabilities to leave Mexico and set up shop in those industrialized places and their objectives vary significantly depending on whether they want to live in low tax, easy to be self sufficient US or in high tax, we all benefit Europe.
