welcome to Chile


I hate inequality.



It is said that Chile is a developing country, that the economy is stable, we think that we are the best country in South America. Chile seems to be a great country but not all that glitters is gold.
Chile is the OECD country with most income inequality,
 while a few live comfortably (increasing GDP), many
struggle to survive.

We don't have free education, we are indebted to study (when i finish my studies, my debt will be more than 30000 dollars), competitive logic impede quality education. 
Our children are educated as numbers, with no chance to think freely. From birth are destined to be poor, to not think, to be the working hand. This is neoliberalism. The State has a minimal role that is not enough to ensure the welfare of their own nation, but has a leading role  protecting the capitalist.
Observed inequality is no accident, it's part of the ideal system for the elite. 

We, college students, are also part of an elite, some had money, some luck, others a supportive family. Privileged as we are, we must fight for a better country, without inequality, without injustice. I hate inequality, but I hate even more the arrogance of the chileans, there is none so blind as those that cannot see.

I also hate laziness and complacency, we are young, we have to work now and always for our people, for the excluded, for the forgotten, for Chile.

I admit, I hate many things, but I love the chileans who struggle every day against the absurd and neoliberal policies imposed by governments.
