I was just thinking the same!
I was watching some "Balaguer" DVD's the other day and sadly amused to see that even just after Trujillo and Bosch, campaigns were run on the hopes and "promises" of an end to the
apagones! :cheeky:
It's almost like fixing social security in the US, it
almost seems an older subject than the country itself.
Politicians
do have 24 hrs power and most likely for free (somehow). They couldn't care less, even worse... it's always a good one to pick to write some new dramatic speeches about.
The problem is so BIG and getting bigger every day, most politicians with an IQ over 80 (yes, there are actually a few) KNOW that a true solution would take so much money and so much time, they would not reap the rewards within their own political lifespan. So why bother beyond making the country spend on a few new things here and there at prices so high, they need new garages built for all the new
yipettas coming their way from "commissions" and call it "Modernization"
