Well, those who work for the government( 45% population) get a lifetime guarantee pension, benefits and salary along with bi annual cost of living raises. You go to any government office I don’t care which ones , Caja, OIJ, Driver license and dreaded immigration. You see the workers sitting do nothing but shuffle papers and talking to their co workers. Long long lines little customer services here we pay for. Transit police get caught doing bribery get 3-6 month vacation with benefits and back to work.. President and her bandits spending hundreds of dollars on lunch and millions a year on trips.. No wonder there is no money left.
