Analyst Luis Dávila Colón, in an interview on Normando en la Mañana on NotiUno 630, argued Puerto Rico 'has not stopped being a socialist country' because its government apparatus continues to revolve around the state and public employees, calling populism an 'endemic disease' with 'absolutely no solution' regardless of which administration governs. He labeled the Department of Tourism and the Department of Health the 'most corrupt agencies' in Puerto Rico, singling out Tourism as the worst offender.
He criticized government advertising spending tied to World Tourism Day at a time when the Fiscal Oversight Board is demanding budget cuts, questioning why there is no money for education but hundreds of thousands of dollars for promoting what he considers the most corrupt agency, calling the campaign 'a propagandistic masturbation... a propagandistic self-gratification of the government.' Discussing the future of the press in Puerto Rico, the former columnist praised El Vocero and Metro Puerto Rico for maintaining operations amid the shift to digital media, noting El Vocero will remain the only daily print edition in Puerto Rico, distributed for free, while Metro Puerto Rico is expanding with five platforms.
