Some of you may have heard that colombia is currently undergoing a crisis, and those who have heard may be under the impression that this is over a fiscal reform to raise the taxes, and that the reform in question was apparently withdrawn by the government.

Although that is technically true, I need to clarify: the reform was not the cause, it was only the last straw. I cannot start to convey just how bad this government has been, i lack the words to explain what they have done or stop doing and how badly fucked they've got the country. But if this means anything to you: this isn't the first fiscal reform they are presenting, it's the third one, in three years, this is the third time they do this. Just to explain how badly this one is here are some examples of what it included:

19% tax to funeral services

19% tax to the basic family basket (what everyone uses daily, the basics to survive)

19% tax women's sanitary products (pads, tampons and such)

19% tax to coffee (in COLOMBIA of all places)

19% tax to Acpm and gas

19% tax to public services for stratus 4 through 6

Local governments would be allowed to set tolls INSIDE the cities

From 2022 those that earn more than 420 usd per month are required to pay taxes

This isn't everything, just from the top of my mind, all those measures would disproportionately affect low and medium class, while many of the measures and the way it's redacted makes very clear that the elites will be exempt of this. A big part of the reason why colombia is currently needing money is because in the past reforms the elites where pardoned of their taxes, the same elites that have positions in the government and that most definitely have a lot to do with the 50 billion pesos that "get lost" to corruption yearly.

Now, many outlets say that the reform was withdrawn, because that what the president is saying. That is a lie, even the congress people said that as of yesterday (may 4) they hadn't withdrawn it. The government, however is doing something it's known for: modifying the reform. They know what they proposed is outraging, so they will propose something that in comparison looks reasonable but that still will be abusive to regular folk.

I just want to tell you: we will keep fighting, but the only thing that this government really cares about is it's image to other countries, just today our president spoke in a talk on 'how to lead a dynamic country in the tweeny first century', so please, try to make this government feel watched by the international community.

Warnings - Fluff , Flirting

"Are you blushing?" A smile crept onto Y/N's face as she stared up to her co-worker. Well not really co-worker as they were both Avengers, she almost rolled her eyes at the thought.

"What, no." Bucky immediately answered but no one could deny that there was in fact a small blush growing on his cheeks.

"Did I get the ever-stoic, hardcore, total badass Bucky Barnes to blush?" A smirk was forming on her lips as he got even more flustered. A smirking Natasha Romanoff watched the interaction with an identical smirk.

"No, it's- it's the cold," he stammered. He knew the response was not correct. Cold weather did not bother him at all. Actually he preferred the cold than heat.

"Huh. It's the cold. And not the fact that I told you, "your face is so freaking adorable and I bet the rest of you is too?"" Her smirk widened as she saw him blush a deeper pink.

"N-No," and as if he needed thing to get worse his voice cracked.

Natasha snorted as his failure to speak correctly for patting him on his shoulder and whispering, "Good luck with that one, she bites." If she knew from experience or not was not said but she probably did know from experience.

When Natasha left the room Y/N turned to Bucky with a seductive smirk on her pink lips, "You wanna go find out?"
