Don't you just love the sanctimonious, hypocritical comments from the RCCunt insisting the government should think of the poor!

What have the RCCunts done for the poor? Forbad the use of condoms thus ensuring a bigger pool of deadbeat church goers giving money to the church, even though they are poor themselves.

I think 'prats in glasshouses shouldn't throw stones' is a fitting comment.

STFU and let the new government turn back a decade of incompetence and self enrichment from the K's and Peronistas is equally fitting.

And what about the former 'socialist' government who employed its citizens in 'black'?
What rights to health care, retirement benefits and job security did they have? If we're going to throw stones lets go all the way and condem the major employer of illegal workers.
Rationalize your labour laws ...they are totally out of wonk at the moment.

You may say what you wish, but the Catholic Church cannot be suspected of being particularly Kirchnerist--indeed, what the Church says gets credit in Argentina.
They are calling attention to the fact that a government cannot build employment by increasing unemployment--nor can a government aspire to “poverty zero” by increasing the number of the current poor.
As amazing as it is, Macri is now talking to people the way the Church used to in order to promote social passivity: that you need to suffer in order to get to a better life.
In the same way, Macri tells people they have to suffer worsening economic conditions (purgatory) in order to later access the Heavens (plenty jobs and poverty zero) at a later time.
