Well, the problem always seems to be conservatism. Uruguayans have embraced new lines of thought, evidence of which is the 3 consecutive terms won by the leftist coalition for the first time. But whenever the centre-right's been in office and they've tried to change some of the old ideas, namely, aspects of their 100-year-old bismarckian welfare state policies, such as monopolies by state-owned enterprises, the leftist coalition (and some centre-right leaders) have used the people's widespread tendency to conservatism in order to develop a narrative aiming to maintain inefficient, expensive businesses, which have always been partisan bounties for chieftains or 'caudillos'. This, together with the social security hot potato, have been the biggest hindrances to sound development.

@@raultalmon1467 Any grown man with a decent understanding of economics can cleary see present-day competetive development calls for supression or reformation of businesses/services, which an incipient welfare state required for the building of such institutions as public services, social security, insurance and the like, but which are now burdensome and absurd. They did make sense one hundred years ago. But those have more often than not mutated into de facto tax collecting agents, with the most blatant example being the state-owned petrol company -curiously also a political springboard for several recent presidential candidates. These contribute to tax pressure on key factors of development such as petroleum and electric power, with costs rising by up to 35%, burdening not only end consumers -by reducing their saving capacity- but mainly the productive sectors -raising operative costs and marring their productivity and competitive edge. So, as grown people, what else can such practices be called other than fair and square conservatism? And, yes. I can name a caudillo: Mujica.

One of the first things Frente Amplio party did back in 2005 while its first period in office was to reject radicals so vehemently and so profusely that they evictedm themselves from the party (which is actually like a coallition of smaller parties) and founded their own party Asamblea Popular now Union Popular and are one of only two extreme leftists parties in Uruguay algonside Trotskist Partido de los Trabajadores, both whom collectively share less than 4% of the electorate. Likewise in the 1970s when the Pachequista block of the Colorado Party supported the right wing coup d'etat all rightwing parties most prominent figures prominently rejected to the point Blaco Party leader Wison Ferreira was locked up when he returned to Uruguay as a candidate because the Army was scared sh*tless of what he would do with them if elected.particuarily due to his overwhelming support of expats living in the US who had become American citizens.

A better question would be this. Will the reforms in Uruguay force Mercosur to reform as well? For better or for worse, Uruguay is bringing competition and foreign investment into a stagnant economy. This will put pressure on Mercosur to adapt. If it doesn't and if Uruguay's success exceeds that of its neighbors, the political pressure on other member states the leave the union will break the block apart. This is not a question about the value of Mercosur or Uruguay's reforms; rather, this is about change and the capacity these member states have to make change a reality. I fully realize how corruption can gum up the works in a million different ways, but even corruption cannot fully block progress when there is momentum behind it, and even minor changes can have enormous effects. Something to ponder.

First off, great video! The timing on this is perfect. One interesting barometer for this is the fact that Uruguay just this year has begun to appear on the lists of best places for expats to retire. This is significant because such lists tend to measure the quality of life in the overall country and not just the cost of living there. Uruguay is supposedly the wealthiest Latin American nation, per capita. This is surprising at first, but not so much after you consider the problems found in other Latin American countries. Weak democracies, histories of oppression, massive racial and social injustice, multi-generational poverty, rebel insurgencies, narco-trafficking, embedded corruption, ineffective judiciary, etc, etc, etc. Whatever problems Uruguay has, it doesn't face anything nearly as critical as the messes you find in Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, Peru, Chile, Guatemala, and several other countries down there. So, why should they really give a damn about making their neighbors happy? There are a small handful of Latin American countries that are rising about the disorder on the continent. The most common elements among them are that they combine relatively good governance with a desire to open their business to the world. As close as this election was, I have a hunch that the Uruguayans sense this critical moment in history and the failure of the leftist approaches in neighboring states. This president is bold. I wish him and his country the best of luck.

This isn't really that surprising, considering many of the stars on these lists have now slipped off. These include New Zealand, Australia, Malaysia, Dominican Republic, Canada, and others.

This video really piques my interest in Uruguay. The mentioned reforms sound almost too good to be true; the country appears to be a 'socialist paradise' without the almost inevitable problems of socialism. Socialism almost inevitably leads to corruption, loss of freedom, and lower living standards. It's what has wrecked and impoverished so much of the Americas. Uruguay seems to be among the precious few- Iceland, Switzerland, Costa Rica, Denmark.... (some of these are 'semi socialist') and this is wonderful. I would just object to inviting massive investment from China, this is flirting with disaster. China often enters foreign markets, uses up the place, and then leaves it wrecked. Very foolish, there are lots of countries that are more humanitarian that still have plenty of capital. Asking for reforms from MERCOSUR is reasonable too, these entities almost invariably over-regulate, it's why Britain voted itself out of the EU. Ultimately, the miracle of Uruguay comes it's culture. The ruling people sound like reasonably decent people and they aren't an isolated elite.

Very information thank you

Change is change, not necessarily good or bad. As a Canadian, I can say that too much right wing gives us a hunger for the left wing and also too much left wing makes us want the right more. Balance is the goal. The imbalance of democracy can help to maintain balance over time but eventually the bureaucracy builds up and revolution is needed to shake down the sick and cancerous or heart diseased system.

Uruguay is a fantastic country and I as well would like to move there one day. I was a big supporter of the leftist broad front, and particularly Pepe Mujica because of the Nordic style social state they created. But now I think they have made the correct decision in electing an extremely moderate center-right candidate with more business friendly policies. The simple fact of the matter is if the same party stays in power things become stagnant and corrupt. Uruguay has a relatively uncynical model of good-faith politics, which we like to pretend we do in the US. Part of this I think is because of the strong social state they created that fortifies a shared sense of priorities. But you need the private money to come from somewhere for people’s standard of living to go up as well. So, good on them for being a model for us to follow.

Well, the reality is quite the opposite, add that to the fact that this government is the one that has the highest numbers of changes at the high commands of the police in several departments, some have even been removed from their position for denouncing orders coming from the high command to make up these numbers.

Since 2005, the FA DIDNT LOOSE ANYTHING.

Unions (which are all left wing) have done things like run tons of strikes and stopped working in school cafeterias, only to then run campaigns about how many days school cafeterias haven't been opened. other than that, the head of PNs security was found to have been dealing in counterfeit Uruguayan passports for Russian citizens between 2014 and 2019, where he operated under the head of foreign relations for the FA and the FA spinned it to say that because they found it NOW and because he is now working for the PN therefore it's their issue (despite PN entering into power in 2020) Also because crime was reduced SO SO much in 2020 and now it has gone somewhat back up (lower than 2019) they are spinning it by comparing the last 2 years only, now showing the reversion of a 15 year old trend in lower crimes. now we are facing a drought, and they are too blaming the PN for it despite dams and water management projects being funded and approved since early 2010s but not having been started by the FA, so really our current crisis is nothing more than their failure to act for so long.

Actually its the opposite. You'd be surprised to find out that the overwhelming bulk of the Latin American imigration that comes to Uruguay is mild manered ans highly educated. This is because Uruguay being a welfare state has very high directed and indirect taxes and poor migrants can't really cope with the high cost of living. I'm amazed at the level of education from Venezuelans in my country when I look at what people from the same country do in other less regulated South American nations like Colombia and Peru. The problem with our migrants however, is that they usually don't see Uruguay as a rmannt rsidence but a place to save money to move for Europe or the US so they stay for anywhere from a couple of years up to a decade and leave but if their children are born in Uruguay they are full on Uruguayans so there's always a chance they decide to stay or come back due to this fact.

I would work all over town making members for a health company. I would ride my scooter in every single neighborhood, no matter how poor it looked. People were nice and they would invite me in, some of them lived in shacks, which were usually very clean, they were very educated and courteous people, they would even offer me a glass of water in the middle of summer which I would gladly accept. I felt safe and welcome, and I was a woman in my 30's then. I never, ever witnessed an act of violence, or disrespect. Nowadays, in those same neighborhoods, you can go in alive, but there is no warranty you would come out, alive, and for sure if you do survive, you won't have a scooter anymore, or even your clothes. That is how bad, the country became during their 15 years in power! Crime rose like foam!!! My neighborhood which was really safe before them, during their terms, you would hear news of gun shots and people dead in the streets. My mother who loved to go out shopping or just for a walk, one day told me, I am afraid to go out. They rob even the elderly, a friend of hers was left almost dead for a few pesos, they hit the old woman with cruelty in a "safe" neighborhood. Poverty too rose like crazy. Before them, you would never, ever see a homeless sleeping in the streets. When they left they were everywhere all over the country. Before them, drug was not common. Again when they finish their terms you could see drug addicts in every town. Before them 80% of teens would finish high-school. When they left only 40% were finishing it. Before them the external debt was 40% less... they raised it like crazy, because they were so corrupted that it is unbelievable how much money they stole all over The vice president alone "misplaced" according to them, 1,000 million dollars (1 billion to Americans), but it was just a mistake... the person responsible of the public phone company stole another 60 million dollars, but again... it was a mistake... they created public ghost companies with very high salaries, that they were paying to their friends, but the problem is that those companies were NON-EXISTANT!!! They also created companies that hired people, technicians, etc. to work for the public companies, but just with limited contracts. Let's say the real employees of the public company, for "x" job would make 60,000 pesos a month... this new employee, they would give them a contract of "30,000 pesos" a month... You would say! O nice! They saved a lot of money from tax payers, right? Not so... that "supposedly" company that help this new hire, would make 2 or almost 3 times that amount they paid the employee for every month the person worked in the public company. So someone like my sister who worked about 5 years in that situation... she would make 30,000 x 12 x 5... but the company who only "helped" her, find the job would make 60,00 plus x 12 x 5!!!! More money they stole in a very quiet way... money, again, from tax payers... Before them there were some big companies, like Colgate. But they run away because they rose taxes like crazy! Of course they had to rise them... with all the embezzlements they did. And I could go on... and on... I could even right a book!!! So don't give me your shit!!! I know first hand what this people are about! And to finish... when they left the published everywhere that poverty was down (big lie). Two weeks after the new government was in place, COVID hit Uruguay, and poor people asking for a plate of food emerged from everywhere!!! That is when we, the people realized the farce was over!!!
