    The Wider Image – Retirees on the edge: Argentina’s protesting

    Jorge, 72, hands out flyers with his phone number to promote his private tutoring lessons for university students in Buenos Aires, Argentina, April 12, 2024. After a lifetime working in the oil industry, he now teaches at a McDonald's to make ends meet as his pension is not enough. Jorge voted for President Javier Milei but says he feels disappointed because the economic reforms that were supposed to target the political elite, or "the caste", ended up hurting ordinary workers instead. "It seems the ones paying the price are retirees, bus riders, and workers like me," he says. REUTERS/Tomas Cuesta SEARCH "CUESTA ARGENTINA PENSIONERS" FOR THIS STORY.
