@Leonard_Szeliga @scotian82 @esjesjesj Yeah 100% replicating the Bukele model around LatAm would lead to massive corruption, even if it had some quick benefits

@Maestro_Mozart A strong argument can definitely be made

@Maestro_Mozart Fair

@lb_412 @ggreenwald

@juliusvonday Yeah I have multiple apps for Táxis, never had an issue with them

@alanpoasting Yes I assumed taxi protectionism was involved, but it’s all very silly

@feoflvco @MDE_Unmapped Yeah they hate him out of desperation, they don’t understand either. If the country was more prosperous they wouldn’t hate him, again comes back to why they are not prosperous

@feoflvco @MDE_Unmapped Fucking morons. Take any country, take Germany and forcefully cut its ability to export by 95% and see how it well it goes. I don’t give a fuck I’m with Maduro, purely out of principle

@feoflvco @MDE_Unmapped They’d buy more if not for the sanctions. This is what I hate about these political debates, people are ignorant as to how much sanctions affect the country, they think it’s all about the economic system

@BuyThe_Dip Nope it’s everywhere

@georgexinho It’s in a regulatory grey area. Sometimes it’s protectionism of the taxi industry, sometimes for safety concerns etc

@BowTiedArepa They also do it

@jesse1jesse I dunno man, those Colombian drivers

@superfluous_man The drivers enforce it, because Uber is officially banned

@silverpepsi How long have you lived in Colombia? It’s not something which incredibly but it’s there, definetly on their minds

@kidfreight Yeah a lot depends on what you are used to. I’ve always lived in large cities above 2 million

@kidfreight I do like BCM but perhaps too small overall, it’s also a place you definetly need fluent Spanish
