After the national deputy of La Libertad Avanza (LLA) Alberto “Bertie” Benegas Lynch will propose this Sunday that education in Argentina should not be mandatory, and even that parents can decide whether to send their children to school or put them to work, leaders from across the political spectrum criticized the libertarian’s statements. The former Secretary of Culture of the Nation of Mauricio Macri, Pablo Avellutowas one of the first to react, told a personal anecdote and attacked the mileist leader.

“My dad had to start working when he was 8 years old. Born in 1938 and the only son of a single mother, in his house there was no alternative,” wrote the former Cambiemos management official, adding: “Unfortunately, he died many years ago. If I were alive, I would go and trumpet the ignorant deputy to tell him what child labor is all about.”.

The United Nations Children’s Fund, in English Unicef, condemned the statements of the libertarian parliamentarian. Without naming him, the UN agency wrote in X: “Working distances boys and girls from their right to learn, play and grow happily.”

“To me that, more than freedom, sounds like slavery”added the Left Front parliamentarian Myriam Bregman.

The former Minister of Science and Technology, Daniel Filmus, also joined the repudiation of the deputy. “B. Lynch explains why they are against compulsory education and in favor of child labor: ‘They can’t afford to go to school because they have to be in the workshop with their father’ Does he know that it was JA Roca who imposed the [ley] 1420?”he said in X.

The national deputy Maximiliano Ferraro He also reacted to Benegas Lynch’s statements. “His position goes back 140 years, since Law 1420 was passed in 1884. Nicolás Avellaneda, Julio Argentino Roca and Domingo Faustino Sarmiento would be dismayed by his liberal approach”he wrote in a post he titled “Not with boys”.

The former executive director of PAMI during the Macrista presidency, Carlos Regazzoni, followed the list of critics. “OBLIGATORY EDUCATION. The world of children WITHOUT compulsory schooling and WITHOUT public education. IT IS NOT FREEDOM,” he wrote.

The sayings of Benegas Lynch

Differentiating from the National Education Law No. 26,206 which establishes the obligation from the age of four until the completion of secondary school -, Benegas Lynch considered this Sunday: “Freedom is also that if you don’t want to send your child to school because you need him in the workshop, you can do it.”.

“The Ministry of Education is a committee of bureaucrats“, he launched, and thus pointed against the -now- Secretariat led by Carlos Torrendell, who by orders of the president Javier Miley It fell within the management of Sandra Pettovello’s Human Capital portfolio.

In dialogue with FM Millenniumthe parliamentarian also pointed out against the previous Government, which he called a “shipwreck” for which they are “handing out life preservers.” “While you’re handing out life preservers, the gnocchi are working on you and making holes in your boat,” she said. In addition, questioned the implementation of social plans subsidized by the State: “The neighbor who has three jobs, takes 14 buses and gets up at 5 in the morning is the one who is financing the other’s decent housing.”

“I am against social plans and all welfare issues,” he reinforced, and declared: “Democracy is an imperfect system and it can be argued”.
