"Transformation" would bring all Mexicans into the formal, legal economy. It would tax the whole economy at OECD-normal rates. It would use enhanced revenues to protect Mexicans from criminal violence - and provide social security in illness and old age. https://t.co/UotFFDj1E5 — PolitiTweet.org

Lopez Obrador vows "transformation" of Mexico. But he has failed - really, never tried - to enforce taxation on the whole Mexican economy. He's funded new social ambitions mostly by squeezing old ones, including health, daycare, and law enforcement. https://t.co/ZAnnAwfHdt — PolitiTweet.org

David Frum @davidfrum

Even as Mexico's president subverts Mexico's democracy and law - the Mexican state remains too weak. It cannot provide physical or social security to its people, in great part because it fails to tax enough. Mexico's tax take is half the OECD average. https://t.co/ZAnnAwfHdt — PolitiTweet.org

Mexico's authoritarian president condemns what he calls "neoliberalism." Mexico entered NAFTA in 1994. If Mexico's economy had grown since then at just 1/4 China's pace, Mexican living standards would by now have caught up to those of France. https://t.co/ZAnnAwfHdt — PolitiTweet.org

The theory goes: "First they make the cities more walkable. Then they recommend that people eat less meat and dairy. After that, it's pretty much a non-stop expressway to the death camps." — PolitiTweet.org
