This course is all about:

** The Mexican government is divided into three levels: Federal, State and Municipal. What activities and responsibilities they carry out, what happens with the collection of taxes and their application to the service of the communities. What procedures can/must I carry out with each government agency? How are these levels conformed, etc

** Intimidation by the authorities: When it's not all honey on the cake, we need to know how to defend ourselves from intimidation by authorities of any kind. Let's learn how to do that.

Let's clarify this for everyone. Come and learn. This is a 2 sessions class.
