Perez did in fact use public funds during his campaign. In a better system, candidates would all use public funds, but only that. To supplement an already disgusting amount of campaign funds with public money is unethical.

I love the claims that the various candidates put forth when they get caught doing wrong (gonzalez, perez, etc), that they did not know what the laws were. Bull! If that “ignorance of the law” thing does not work for the average citizen, it should not be used as a defense for politicians.
