REUTERS/Henry RomeroMEXICO CITY: As the outlook for Mexico's economy gets gloomier during the coronavirus crisis, President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has driven home the message that his government is ready to help the poor to weather the storm: But that the rich can forget it.
"We're going to save the people," Lopez Obrador said on Tuesday."Because there are some who may be thinking we're going to save those on top, with this idea, this sophistry, that if those on top are doing well, those at the bottom will do well." Last week, Lopez Obrador said there will be no"neo-liberal" tax breaks for banks and big business to soften the economic blow, using a term he applies to capture all that was wrong with Mexican governments before his election.
