What Happens When Power Loses?

Our governor is leaving among a scandal. He mismanaged people's money for health services. Particularly the Popular Insurance (Seguro Popular); the Mexican solution for those without health coverage. Conveniently the offices burned down yesterday nearby from where I'm sitting.

I just watched Naomi Klein with Amy Goodman in DN!. Powerful people will take more violent actions against us; just like despots in the North of Africa. We are pawns in their power struggles.

Here in Mexico, Carlos Slim Helú, and Emilio Azcárraga Jean, are fighting over who owns the hearts and minds of Mexicans.

I am afraid.

It is like if Berlusconi took over Mexico to bed all the young Mexican girls he could.

The answer to the question posed in this note is: They kill, and take back what they think is theirs.

Thanks Naomi and Amy.
