Mexico banks nationalized as leftists seek broader reform
In Mexico City labor and civic groups donate millions of pesos to back the nationalization of private banks and indemnify former owners. Leftists warn Portillo's move aids the economy but hides deep social problems. A 5,000-strong rally backed the action while demanding inflation relief and wage hikes. The Electrical Workers Union donated 10 million pesos and pledged 200 million more, with other unions contributing a day's pay per member.
