Conversation with a taxi driver:
"What's that over there?"
"A picket! I've seen twenty of them just today! And it's been two weeks."
"Oh. The power cuts."
"Not enough electricity to go around in this heat! Someone has to go to the Pink House and shoot their brains out! Just like that! They're all thieves. And there's a transport strike on the 30th, so get ready."
"Why's that?"
"Because the truck drivers want a bonus and the teamsters are against the government."
"They didn't get Christmas bonuses?"
"Yeah they did! They want more! This country's a motherfucking party!"
"I don't know why Cristina doesn't just build railways if she hates the teamsters so much."
"She hates everyone! Even her lover!"
"Her lover? Who's her lover?"
"I don't know, but it sure isn't me! Just don't think she hasn't got one. She has plenty! And she fights them all!"
"Uh..."
"She's a loose one, I'm telling you, 'can't keep her panties on."
Why the FUCK is a woman with power (and in this case, a woman without any, har har) always, ALWAYS a bitch and a whore? I don't see anyone giving two shits who's fucking the decrepit old male politicians that far outnumber the female ones. This woman is a widow and they're attributing lovers to her, and not only that, she chews their balls off too? How does this guy's mind instantaneously switch from "politicians are thieves" to "the president's a whore"? What the fuck? Why is this supposed to be a natural association?
