What did Juan Peron and his wife eva do to help the urban poor?
Peron passed laws to increase wages for workers, as well as other benefits. Eva created the Eva Peron Foundation, and founded schools, children’s hospitals, orphanages, old people’s homes and a fully-furnished housing complex. In spite of all the social work, you must take into account that Peron was a fascist who militarized Argentina, censored the media, crushed or exiled the opposition, incarcerated strikers, and worst of all, was the responsible party for providing an escape route to former Nazis into South America.
