Ecuador: Government Takes Debate to the Streets

The Rafael Correa administration is taking the message of social equality to the streets. Collectives supporting two new tax laws designed to increase equality in the country are kicking off a campaign in support of the measures. The government’s wealthy opposition reject the proposals, often engaging in violent tactics. President Correa temporarily suspended the bills with the aim of opening up a debate on the issues. The opposition however, rejects all debate and calls for ousting Correa from the presidency.
