How long can CFK afford to pay the Police what they want, before they turn on her?

Does she have a Praetorian Guard??

@1 At the rate she burns through the nation's money, she will have spent all of it 6 months before her term is over. Judging by the acceleration of the number of destructive policies, scandals, disasters, and the amount of money being spent; she will be lucky to survive 2014.

increased illegal revenue “collection” by police, who in this sense were effectively granted a space in which to be corrupt.

I've said many times the very core of Argentine Society is rotten. Until they take a serious stand against corruption, from “cash payments' in stores to ”expedited services“ from Govt Employees, to ”cash payments” for police tickets etc. They can not and will not ever succeed. They will only get poorer and dumber as time goes on.

2. At this rate it is doubtful CFK will make it to the end of her term.
