50 Austerity Measures

    “There will be no more private medical benefits for government employees.” So, this is some sort of merger of ISSTE and either IMSS or Seguro Popular. Great idea, but I can hear the screams of CNTE and similar groups already.

    “The government’s publicity budget will be reduced by 50%.” Another good idea, but I suspect we’ll see some newspapers, magazines, and radio stations going out of business as a result. Unless there’s more advertising from state and local governments to replace it.

    “All duplicated structures and programs will be eliminated.” I wonder if this applies to the Gendarmerie.
