Ecuador Leaning Socialist for February Elections

As election nears, pandemic-weary Ecuadoreans lean toward return to socialism

QUITO, Jan 29 (Reuters) - Ecuadorean voters struggling under a battered economy are leaning toward a return to socialism in February's presidential vote, as nostalgia for better times under former leftist president Rafael Correa has pushed one of his proteges into the lead.

Economist Andres Arauz, 35, is promising to revive the heavy social spending of Correa's decade in power and to tear up an IMF-backed austerity plan that has been made more painful by the coronavirus pandemic. - News.Trust.org

But the circus can't be complete without the per usual Leftist Lunatic giveaways and other ravings, to wit:

Ecuadorean bonds tumbled this month on the fiery rhetoric from Arauz, who has also proposed giving $1,000 to a million families within the first week of taking office. 😆 😆 😆

Why are you guys so laser-focused on the echo chambers, telling you exactly what you want to hear? Do you have something against the truth?
