The term "Latin American politics" could mean a possibility of things. In my opinion, it’s expressed by its people who cause a tremendous amount of chaos over the things they feel empowered to fight for which in the end is just their demonstration of their democratic rights but that is what I’ve only thought of recently. Before that, to me it meant the power of which a political figure has over its citizens.

Take for example Argentina’s vice president Amado Boudou, who has been accused of illegal enrichment, money laundering, and influence peddling just a couple months ago. Not only does he hold a high title in the country but it’s not as if all these accusation were found at the same time, one thing led to another and other incidents are being discovered which gave justice for his investigating. Argentina’s taxpayers have to formally declare their income but also their total wealth which if in the long run it doesn’t match up to the government’s earnings can bring a tax invasion.
