In today's week before elections protesting...

Actually, today's transportation strike probably had nothing to do with the elections, but it's this week's theme. Universities are closed, bus owner/operators are on strike, and to really top it all off...it's ley seca (dry law) this weekend. Makes re-election even harder to take.

Plus it tends to lead to people carting off copious amounts of beer, probably all out of proportion to what they would normally drink. This is why Prohibition was a bad idea - people hate the idea of scarcity.
