Minister Manuel Calvo demanded in the Senate that the Nation transfer resources to the provinces. However, he omits that Córdoba's government hasn't cut a single cent from the political apparatus. Meanwhile, while they request ATN and fuel tax funds, they maintain a giant and wasteful state structure.
The provincial administration of Córdoba currently keeps 18 ministries and 15 agencies (with ministerial rank and budget) in operation. Not a single state office has been closed since they took office. On the contrary, they multiplied departments and agencies that only serve to justify paid activism and ideological indoctrination.
While residents tighten their belts, Córdoba's state squanders millions on overpriced festivals, gender agenda shows, and globalist green circuses with no real impact. Instead of cutting privileges, they demand that the Nation make the adjustment. The hypocrisy of Córdoba's progressivism is already obscene.
Genuine federalism or disguised clientelism?
Filokirchnerista Minister Calvo speaks of federalism, but behind his speech there is a demand to maintain privileges. He requests resources that, for years, were used at discretion to sustain clientelist structures. Now, they disguise fiscal pressure as a defense of the interior.
Meanwhile, while he demands that the Nation repair roads, Calvo hides that many provincial projects are paralyzed or made up for the photo. Several of those used as management banners have never presented a serious accountability report. No one explains how the money is spent, much less who oversees it.
