Introduction
While public funds are being distributed disguised as social support, public institutions are being destroyed.
The Distribution of Public Funds
Approximately 30 million people benefit from various programs that distribute the money collected from taxpayers who generate these resources.
Those receiving this “given” money are content, regardless of the government’s actions in terms of public safety, civil protection, or other state responsibilities.
Public Safety Crisis
In September of this year, nearly 7 out of 10 women and 6 out of 10 men considered their city unsafe. In certain areas, this figure rises to almost 9 out of 10.
The security crisis has many contributing factors, including the perception that public institutions are colluding with criminal activities and attacks on social leaders, such as the mothers seeking their children and agricultural leaders.
Judicial System Reform
Amidst the security crisis, a reform to the justice system was promoted to remove thousands of federal and state ministers, magistrates, and judges.
The intent was not to restore public trust in the justice system but to gain control over an institution that resolved matters with a degree of independence.
Impact on Public Security Institutions
Without control over federal or state public security institutions, progress was abandoned, despite the small advancements made by public servants in the judicial career.
As previously observed in election results, loyalty to the ruling party was all that was needed to join the judicial ranks, irrespective of professional background.
Consequences on Judicial Credibility
Grotesque cases of inexperience or lack of knowledge among elected judges have emerged, dealing a significant blow to institutional credibility and creating chaos in the justice administration area.
Electoral Reform and Opposition
The ongoing electoral reform promotion excludes political parties, an unprecedented move in recent political-electoral reforms.
Most proposals aim to further restrict electoral expression spaces for those opposing the government, such as reducing or eliminating non-majority electoral representatives and abolishing political immunity, originally established by brave opposition figures who paid with their lives, like Belisario Domínguez.
Natural Disasters and State Response
Recently, thousands of compatriots suffered from two tragedies: one due to meteorological phenomena and another from the state’s insufficient and ineffective response to alleviate preventable suffering.
Public assistance must reach those in need more efficiently, considering the crisis’s urgency.
Institutional Desmanteling and Public Crisis
The chaos experienced during natural events is evident due to the destruction of public protection civil and humanitarian aid institutions against disasters.
