Campo contra Gobierno

So right now the country is protesting against the government about the taxes that the farmers have to pay. I don´t understand it all, but they have to pay 44% in taxes, perhaps in exports. Either that, or they have to pay 44% in taxes AND the government isn´t letting them export (they would make more money exporting their goods). Or maybe it´s, since now they are allowed to export and they make more money, the government raised the taxes from 20% to 44% on their exports. It´s something like that. So anyways, so the farmers (they are all outside the city, around the whole country) have blocked roads going out of buenos aires, and stopped selling meat and milk (omgah milllkkkkkk :( ) and now in the city people are supporting them by walking around the streets, and blocking streets so only like 1 car can pass at a time, clapping and hitting pots and pans. Two days ago, I was walking from class, and noticed people from their windows banging pans, and people clapping and honking in the streets and had no idea what was going on. And then alot of them go to plaza de mayo, where there is a huge monument, to protest. It´s all peaceful though and I love it. I think it´s wonderful that the entire country is coming together to protest when the government is taking advantage of it´s people. They are protesting about one specific cause too. I love the the people in the city, who are not part of the campo (the farmers) but are located where the government is are supporting them. It´s beautiful to me. My host mom, Marta, loves the protest. We watch the news everynight about it.
