  • Remembering Ayotzinapa (Latin American Directions)

    Unresolved Issues 8 Years After.  The host for this show is Nicolás Süssmann Herrán.  The guest is Ximena Medellin.  


    On September 26, 2014, 43 students were abducted and then forcibly disappeared from Ayotzinapa Rural Teacher Training College in Iguala, Mexico. The school was well known for its left-winged tendencies, and the students were participating near the date of the incident in demonstrations against teacher hiring policies. On the night of the disappearance, the bus that transported the students had a clash with the police, where the latter fired shots against the buses. After that, 43 students went missing, and the investigations have been contested and inconclusive regarding what happened and who is responsible. In 2022, the Commission of Truth and Access to Justice set for the case issued its report and said that the State had responsibility for the disappearances. In this episode, host Nicolas Sussmann and guest Ximena Medellin unpack the most recent developments in the case and discuss unresolved issues.

  • Road Usage Charge Versus Carbon Tax (Talking Tax)

    Potholes Ahead for Drivers.  The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and Tom Yamachika.  


    Hawaii Department of Transportation has been studying implementation of a Road Usage Charge (RUC).  Such a charge would be assessed to a driver based on how many miles they’ve driven on our highways and byways, and it’s (at least in theory) designed to replace the fuel tax that is now the primary contributor to the state’s Highway Fund.

    But there is a contingent of people who are pushing a carbon tax.  A carbon tax collects money to pay for the societal costs of pollution, global warming, and other environmental damage wrought by fossil fuel burning.  Given that many of the environmental damages have already occurred, the goal of the tax is to fix the past damage and not simply compensate for current social costs.  Furthermore, it is there to disincentivize (i.e., penalize) fossil fuel use.  Rather than getting rid of the existing tax on gasoline, they want to jack it up big time.
