What will María Isabel be thinking today, Wednesday, March 6, in SEMANA? Well, the opinion revolves around the cover of covers. And by that I mean the placement of the new Petrism chips in the Government, which turn this administration from technocracy to activism, since the controversial new planning director, Alexander López, in addition to recognizing that he is not an economist, He admits that mathematics was very hard for him, a statement with which I frankly sympathize, because I myself suffer from that ailment.
Surely, in that field, a part of my brain may be turned off, like that of the new director of National Planning; However, I could have had the privilege of studying a couple of years of Economics at the university in a rather cruel schedule, since classes were from 6:00 to 8:00 at night right in the center of that university of the Rosario and the teacher, excellent, yes, he was tremendously strict.

Alexander López’s excuse for his mathematical deficiency to hold said position cannot lie in the fact that although he does not know how to add or subtract or multiply or divide, however, he will compensate for this with the knowledge, according to him, extraordinary that He has about the country, its tragedies, pain and suffering, which he considers sufficient to carry out “that beautiful responsibility of defining public policies to impart social justice.”

What could someone qualified, prepared and more than enough to direct the Planning Department, such as Don Alexander’s self-sacrificing predecessor, Jorge Iván González, be feeling about the shortcomings of his successor?
