The Minister of Economy and presidential candidate for Union for the Homeland (UxP), Sergio Massa, questioned this Friday the businessmen of the passenger auto transport chambers, whom he described as “parasites of the State who intend to extort” and maintained that they want the government to “guarantee the profitability” of their earnings.
In statements at an act in the Buenos Aires district of San Fernando, Massa referred in this way to the conflict with the groups, within the framework of a 24-hour task retention day carried out by the Automotive Tramway Union (UTA) in the service of groups from the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (AMBA), Tucumán, Corrientes, Entre Ríos, Santa Fe, Formosa, Misiones and Tucumán.
According to Massa, it is “a strange strike because it was forced by the employers”, whom he accused of “withholding the money from salaries to force the workers to go out into the streets.”
“The State transferred the money from the salaries to the employers but some retained the money from the salaries to force the workers to go out into the streets,” warned Massa, speaking at an act in the Buenos Aires municipality of San Fernando for the expansion of the northern treatment plant and the creation of the first energy cogeneration module.
Massa, very hard with the transport businessmen
In this context, Massa indicated that “in reality the employers are not discussing the salary that was agreed in parities nor are they discussing rates because they do not care regarding the rate” and added: “There are two business groups that intend to take the workers hostage to discuss the body purchase system and they want the State to guarantee their profitability”.
“We believe in the Argentine businessmen who generate work, in those who take risks and gamble, but we say to those who are parasites of the State and seek to extort money: we are not afraid of them, we are going to confront them to defend the right of people to travel for go to work”, said the minister and presidential candidate.
Massa’s statements occurred while a meeting between leaders of the UTA and the Argentine Association of Automotive Transport Entrepreneurs was taking place at the Ministry of Transportation.
