Perfect question.

It's going to take me a while to get through.

So I will say like Petro did a lot of things that I think were objectively really good.

And they're similar to what Amlo and Scheinbaum did.

He raised the minimum wage around like 40% in real terms.

Actually, this year in nominal terms, the minimum wage was raised 23%, the most for a single year in Columbia's history.

And this created a panic from the media, the opposition that this would spike inflation and

create unemployment.

None of that happened.

And Petro was actually due to leave office as the most popular Colombian president since Uribe.

With his approval rating is like close to 50%.

Now, admittedly, there's like a low bar, pretty low bar for recent Colombian presidents.

He passed the labor reform, reduced the work week to, like, 42 hours from, like, 46.

Workers also have, like, more overtime.

Like, before, like, would you cut that so that, like, on holidays you only got, like, 70% as opposed to, like, 100% of...

Over time, there's an agrarian reform to restore land lost to people from the armed conflict that were displaced by violence.

I interviewed a guy, clips were posted for Dropsite.

This Petro supporter was a former soldier, actually.

And he said that his hometown in rural Colombia had really been transformed by Petro's government, which I found really inspiring.

So that's the good.
