Writing What I Feel

I have read that future employers are googling prospective employees. So: Am I writing myself off the work market?

I understand that there is not much point in putting your head up, when you are just a mere mortal. Nobody is protecting me, I don't even believe in guardian angels. So why do I do it?

Part of my answer is my father's example. He said what he thought, even when it meant loosing customers in the little store where he passed his last days. We were not wealthy, but he acted like if he was the President. Actually he was the President of a soccer league. Liga Deportiva Venustiano Carranza. He went to the sports press and said that some non-professional sports federations, were like  Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves..

Another part of the justification for exposing myself by expressing my opinions, is that I keep thinking all the time. I don't like how bull headed other people are.

I am paid by the federal government, but I cannot help to notice how badly the A(H1N1) virus message was given to us. At times it seems as if functionaries say whatever comes to their mind. I do not see a message, even less a policy to address what to me seems the root cause of this quasi-pandemic. A very weak national health system.

Instead of investing billions of dollars subsidizing rich people, every person in the country should have health care, at least to the level that the Cuban Government provides its citizens.

There.
