The video, uploaded on June 15th, 2025, highlights the significant disparity between the salaries of politicians and the minimum wage. máquina argues that excessive political salaries contribute to the nation's economic imbalances. "They are making 210 million pesos," máquina states, referring to politicians' earnings.
