Fox Blasts Federal Welfare Programs as Wasteful — 'Our Money Is Going Down the Drain'

Vicente Fox criticizes the Morena federal government's universal 'Programas del Bienestar' cash-transfer programs, arguing that untargeted aid squanders public money that should instead be directed only to citizens who genuinely need it. The critique echoes a longstanding contrast with Fox's own presidency, whose flagship anti-poverty program, Oportunidades, used means-tested targeting rather than universal transfers.
