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

    Jorge, 72, who gives private tutoring lessons at a McDonald's to make ends meet, poses for a portrait at a park 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.

    ABOUT QUEWS

    We are a news service born out of a global loss of confidence in media and destabilising polarisation of attitudes. We believe it is possible, indeed necessary, to create a public forum where vital issues of the day are discussed, debated, analysed and circulated.
