You come into this world and you're dealt. Part of our education is to recognize where it ends as it begins to mine and others, respect fences, gates and fences. The problem is that the vast majority of people who come to this world belong to this sector of people who have little or nothing, not even a place to drop dead.
This society, nation, country, or whatever you call, for more than his self-integration, democracy and equity, not guaranteed to all as a place to develop, raise children, love, in order to live without life a misery. Because who wants to suffer the cold, rain, hunger? Or the one who is born poor must pay with your karma in this way?
16 million hectares Uruguay has not reached 4 million people, but it's easier for many to get a prison cell to a decent home to live.
Large tracts of land in ever fewer hands, engaged in producing food (so clean), while more and more people in town are hungry, many of them former inhabitants of the field (or their children , grandchildren, etc) that found no choice but to go to the city because they did work, it is now done by machines, generating more profit for the landowner (landowner) and increasing the number of marginal city.
Today we complain about the symptoms of (insecurity, drug addiction, etc) in the city, but we are not the causes.
empty homes and families sleeping in the street, all we see and it is legal, but legal is not always fair. The laws punish the who dares to want to live in a house or vacant lot, but protect those who profit from the real estate business, speculating on the need for people who lost their best years enslaving, bending their backs to buy a small apartment in thousands quota, or from month to month needs to get to pay the rent.
But how they got some much and others have nothing? We sink into history and see that violence was the method. The expulsion and extermination of the Indians who lived here before the arrival of white, subjugation and extermination of the gaucho in the name of progress and wiring, the military dictatorship, torture, imprisonment for those who tried something different and jail today for learners who do not understand, are just some examples, but the list can get quite long.
seeking a place to live in an abandoned house or vacant land is more than solve the immediate problem is a (perhaps very light) to try to match the thing, is claimed as a people, a place where you got a president, you got a selection, you got laws (all guaranteed by the state), but not A PLACE TO LIVE.
