This was said by President Cristina Fernández, who also affirmed she was proud for “having implemented a different country model”.
The Head of State asserted the Government introduced an automatic system for paying the allowances, to “avoid the return of patronage to Argentina”.
“Nobody asks a pensioner, or a beneficiary of the allowance program what political party he or she votes for, we’ve tried the process prevented the return of the political clientilism that deprived the country of unemployment, production, industry and trade” the President said.
“The best patronage antidote is job-creation, which enables each citizen to depend on his or her own effort” she said and then highlighted “this is the model we have been building since 2003, which created more than 5 million jobs, and shielded the country from the global credit crunch of 2009”.
Cristina Fernández voiced her pride for having fulfilled the government’s idea of a new country model with industrial, agro-industrial production, of high-added value, and a solid domestic market”.
When heading the inauguration of infrastructure works at the San Luis hospital of Bragado in Buenos Aires province, the Head of State said that last week, she felt proud to announce a hike of the minimum wage from 1840 pesos as from January 2011.
”There’s a turning point in the country’s recent history, in which we learnt to conjugate the verb to work, to administrate, to be positive…while there’s another country which criticizes, speaks…well, that’s pluralism and democracy”.
Se also highlighted the fact that workers’ income icncreased like never before, because the minimum wage of $200 until 2003, rose to $1840, as from next January 1”.
“Whatever methods you use to assess that, there’s an improvement in workers’ purchasing power”, the Head of State emphasized.
The President urged “economy, industry and trade players, to hear us with a hand on their hearts and not inside their pockets”
That’s a famous line by former Argentine economy minister Juan Carlos Pugliese.
