Solis has quickly proven he makes promises based on inaccurate or complete lack of knowledge. “has only now realized that pricing…..” This guy is going to turn this country around? Costa Rica is going to be faced with bankruptcy in 2015, the over spending, the complete lack of accountability and corruption will take this country down in 2015. I am afraid it is inevitable.

What is an “unmoveable” tax? I was hoping Solis would be the irresistible force for these kinds of farces that have gone on for such a very long time.

Typical politicians…tell the people what they want to hear. Everyone knows that the unions (sindicatos) are the real power players in CR.

The Chinese are manufacturing low-cost solar panels. Perhaps Costa Ritca could make a package deal wherein China would contribute solar panels and build solar farms as part of the Limon port and highway deal. Since Costa Rica seems intent on obligating itself to China, we may as well get some real benefit from it.
