Israel had this tiny-party-problem because of generous Proportional Representation electoral systems. They bumped their entry threshold from 1% to 3.25% and really cut down a lot of single-issue campaigns by random rabbis. Which parties Israelis vote for, on the other hand, is another matter India is currently going through the same thing as Brazil. Over the last fifty years the Congress party has been deteriorating by bleeding seats to regionalist parties.

i believe morales said he wasn't going to run, then changed his mind and called a referendum to overturn term limits. the referendum failed, then a short time later the supreme court nullified term limits and he legally ran again.

Roland Jones posted:Well, besides, again, all the videos of them burning Wiphala flags, Camacho was vice president of Unión Juvenil Cruceñista, the fascists pictured, back in 2002-2004, something that, if you Google their name and his together, is apparently actually common knowledge since it shows up in shows up in all sorts of articles about him, even those favorable to him. It's not a secret. yeah but we all know fascist movements are never popular enough to sustain radical change

MrNemo posted:I mean, the US actually sponsored an incredibly incompetent coup in Venezuela, gave moral support to a coup in Bolivia and huge moral support to a fascist like Bolsonaro. If you really think the Trump admin was better than normal I can only assume that you think doing some incompetent, mask off, support for fascists in Latin America on top of the normal US policies is better? Because generally Trump didn't stop normal US foreign policy actions, he just made a lot of public declarations that meant they stopped doing all the publicised humanitarian/aid type stuff and kept doing all the hard imperialism without oversight. So really, it's saying you think US imperialism is better if it's ignorable and they stop pretending to make any effort to improve the lives of people around the world. what an awful loving post lol

quarantinethepast posted:It appears to me that the answer lies intrinsically in the difference between the peso and the dollar, because 96,000 dollars in the US is a reasonable salary for a professional. this doesn't matter and is illusory; a good salary in norway is one million kroner a year. their currency by base number is weaker but they have higher living standards in their country than the us anyway $5,000 per year seems super super low. a baseline professional job (working on a railway or in a car parts factory, pretty common blue-collar professions in mexico) will get you $10-15,000/year USD. a rural teacher with a bachelor's may be closer to $5k? not sure hoiyes posted:Is that not the monthly salary? pretty sure 100k pesos a month would be for a prestigious university professor or a civil engineer, i think that sounds right

i do think it's interesting in the seemingly unrelenting march of neoliberal capitalism, the hospitality industry should have had enough influence to end the embargo and push for investment on the island and they clearly do not. the embargo is illogical from a profit standpoint and is therefore untenable long-term
