Elisa Carrion He also detailed what his economic situation is like after the “blender” that the National government. The former congresswoman brought her pay stub to the interview and showed how much she receives per month as a retiree.

With just a little more than 700 thousand pesos per month, Elisa Carrió stated: «The remedies cost 300 thousand pesos. I wanted to die. So, since I never used PAMI, I went there and the service is excellent. That a person like me has to resort to PAMI… if a retiree pays only 45 thousand for medicines, how can he afford it with his retirement?
«I am on the poverty line. I have three jobs and I can’t pay the electricity. That’s why I insisted with “Toto” Caputo that I sent him to say “I’ll kill you if you don’t get something,” it’s because the whole adjustment came through liquefaction. It was spectacular for salary and much more for retirements,” added the leader of the Civic Coalition.
