Is It Dictatorship To Teach How To Fish?

[khairyexpat]

[background=transparent]There's an old saying: "If you really want to help someone do NOT give him a fish, instead teach him how to fish".[/background]

By giving hand outs for the youth at early ages .... Cristina clinched the democratic vote hands down. The overwhelming majority of the masses are conformistas and are content with so little. Nice people (not a mean streak in their veins) ... but conformistas !

[background=transparent]Imagine a really real Argentine leader with guts, brains and clear vision (for the country and real world economy .. not for his political gains).[/background]

[background=transparent]Would it be dictatorship if he takes over, without their votes?[/background]

[background=transparent]Just to change their habits (habits are hard to break ... it takes time ... long long time .. and a gutless relentless strong unwavering leader ... to see it through).[/background]

Yeah.

Don't cry for me Argentina ! ... it's a long long road !!!

Democracy is messy.

I'll never criticise a democratically elected Argentine Politician giving his/her people what they want to get their votes.

Maybe usher in a tsarist style autocracy....always ends well.

Or bring in a regime like Ortega's in Nicaragua.....!Where Ortega has amended the Constitution to be elected indefinitely, to die in Office. and to govern by decree. Also has majority in Congress. With massive money handouts from Chavez established this form of pseudo democracy .

Thats exactly what I said. I mean it's either meglomaniac with a messiah complex or sit here on our swiss rolls dreamin' up new empanada flavours.

Tis all we have, sure, lets embrace it. Sorry, I mean, let's EMBRACE IT. The EMPANADAS that IS.

Whaaa..

Sad to watch ... and nothing anyone can do !!!

Like watching an advanced smoker with cancer ... leaving him to break his smoking habit and quit on his own.

Sounds good; I'll have mine without the empanada though.
