Although there is speculation that Macri will veto the new law (OJALA!) the nuts who make up the legislature voted last night not only to legalize this most odious of activities but to create a "registry" of "cuidacoches" thereby legitimizing open extortion by thugs in the public streets. This slap in the face to the public is outrageous and really makes me want to leave CABA more than ever.
For those who don't know about the trapitos they are the thugs who guide drivers into public (free) parking spacing by waving there traps (dirty rags) and then offer to guard your car for a tip. From whom are they guarding it you ask? Well from themselves! What they are saying in essence is give me 50 or 100 pesos and I won't scratch your car with a key or break your windows as soon as you leave.
We have a government of lunatics. And then people wonder why we have so much crime in the streets --- thugs roam the city with complete impunity as the "police" who are supposed to stop this threatening and illegal activity do nothing since they receive a % of the daily take from the trapitos.
