“Pensar no es un privilegio”

I think this country is characterized for sold itself to other countries and, even worse, to some people of this own country to get monetary benefits. Years ago, Chile has been selling their wealth indiscriminately… the water, the copper; only for give you some examples. Therefore, the new law about the seeds didn’t surprise me, in fact, neither surprised me that people who is directly related with the government obtain benefit with this law and business. This doesn’t mean that I don’t feel sad for all this things. Sincerely, I think this issue is disgusting... Sometimes I can not believe how shameless are some people who think only in their own benefit regardless if they go over the liberty and rights for the rest of the society.

However, there is other kind of news that show us that not everything is lost, and one of those is the master class that took place in Plaza de Armas which had the name “El Estado nos tiene en la calle” (“The state has us in the street”), that make an allusion to the current situation in Chile related with the education (or the less of this). This event struck my attention for many reasons, besides the theme about education, I think that was important to take own public spaces to discusses about our problems and make conscience in other people. In this conversation we talk about our reality and the problems that affect us, we talk about the need of a constituent assembly for create a new constitution, a new state but thought from us.
