This is actually the second time he has been granted decree powers. It hardly seems necessary, he appointed the Supreme Court himself, his cronies pack the Congress, he wrote the Constitution himself, and then had the Congress absolve him of having even to go to them, even though all they do is rubber-stamp his decision.
Of course, if the Supreme Court and Congress are just rubber stamps, why bother. So maybe this is just efficiency, bypassing what is only a formality in any case.
Corruption is flourishing, and expect it to explode. Corruption is how ordinary people carve out a bit of freedom in a top-down country. Corruption is how ordinary people obtain a bit of rationality in an irrational country. It is how you function in a disfunctional country.
We are accustomed to thinking that corruption is bad, and in a normal country it is. In a mis-ruled country, it is how you keep the whole thing from collapsing of its own weight.
