I FIND certainly odd, the worries of the people. Wikileaks for example. Or the insurrection in those countries of the Islamic persuasion in the north of Africa. Freedom, liberty, or is it jobs, food and shelter?
IN Puerto Rico there are REAL issues to worry about. Let the people in othe geographies solve their own dialog bombin g each other, after all, IRAK with the democratic help of the USA and Europe is worse than it was with Sadam or not?
Water is the most important resource we have, along with air. We could not survive too long without water, or irrigate, wash, or drink. Nothing.
However, in Puerto Rico Does it Better, I can not walk four hundred meters without a water leak in sight. Millions of gallons of clean water down the gutters, night and day. 24/7, twelve months or the whole year.
Multiply the gallons, add the cost of OIL to operate the filtering equipment with electricity, the pumps, the cleaning of fecal waters, all that money in the millions of bucks, night and day down the gutters.
Meanwhile the puertorrican pundits in the newspapers and the MINGA/PETRACA NEWS BLOG COLOR COMMENTATORS, worrying about university students, freedom of this freedom of that...In a country crumbling in huge chunks without anyone concerned about REAL issues. These blind hogs only worry about problems of a meaningless segment of the population.
Lets fix the SPIKIE, leaks modersuckers! NOW!
A blog about flora and fauna, besides creative horticultural criticism, photography of the garden and beyond in an urban context. All its possibilities within crowded concrete/asphalt realities, aesthetics and its murder farther along the self.

ReplyDeleteCrealo o no hoy me he puesto al dia con todas sus publicaciones que tenia atrasadas, comento en esta por ser la ultima publicada. Aunque Puerto Rico no es 3er. mundo, quizas por razones de origen/cultura, sus dirigentes y funcionarios de medio nivel (que son una muestra de la poblacion) se portan igual que el resto de sus "colegas" de Latinoamerica "pobre": negligencia en el cumplimiento deberes. A veces como terapia lo mejor es aceptar que nada es perfecto en esta vida, aunque entiendo su indignacion cuando vemos tanto descuido en asuntos tan importantes como el desperdicio del agua, recurso vital para la humanidad sin importar ubicacion geografica. Yo tenia una idea muy diferente, pues en los 90's cuando todavia residia en mi pais, llegue a visitar varias veces PR, pero lo hacia solo, alquilaba un vehiculo y recorria lo mas que podia de un extremo a otro y quedaba encantado con el orden en todas las cosas, bueno mas influenciado por el trafico (respeto a las leyes), pues en el mio antes y ahora peor, el manejar es una calamidad (y riesgo, aunque gracias a Dios nunca tuve ni he tenido accidentes). Quizas si hubiera tenido alguna amistad local me hubiera mostrado otros aspectos que el turista nunca ve. De todas formas es como le digo a mis familiares: nuestro vino es amargo, pero es nuestro (y no es consuelo, siempre abogo por educar para poco a poco superar males y tradiciones que nos mantienen en el atraso).
ReplyDeleteEn su caso Ud. contribuye a la educacion del medio, sus temas quizas no sean para el disfrute de la "gran masa" (que solo busca entretenimiento), pero son temas serios donde plantea el problema y solucion. Yo con sinceridad lo felicito y admiro su forma de exponer sus puntos de vista, cuando participaba en conversaciones que tratabamos de "arreglar" el mundo siempre planteaba que no debemos llevarnos del comportamiento de la mayoria, a lo largo de la historia de la humanidad, el trabajo de una pequeña porcion ha hecho la diferencia para que hoy dia estemos donde estamos, uno no lo ve, pero en algo influimos para dejar este "atolladero" algo mejor de como lo encontramos. Mis saludos.
