AFTER a rather long period of quiet, I have being able to write again. Nothing has changed for the best, actually it is getting worse, day by day, no matter the failed attempts of the isle government attempts. one time after the other, to improvise salt and water solutions to the financial, political bankruptcy prevailing.
Two are worth mentioning. Rice and sugar cane. The blind leading the blind announced with tons of pride the planting of some rice to be sold for schools lunch. The simple problem is the the $8 a pound to be sold for 64 cents, believe it or not....Meanwhile 3 pounds of rice in the supermarket cost $1.?
Sugar cane is one of the most complicated crops to plant considering: soil, water, fertilizers, pests, pesticides conditions not to get into the cheap labor intensive ways to collect it. The intention? To help rum distilleries to save 34 million.
That is why the living conditions in Isla Estrella, the quality of life are deteriorating constantly without any hope, possibilities to improve. Imagine the investment of over 100 million to plant sugar cane to save the private sector 34 million...The government continues the trend of making the debt a collective issue, while all the profits, the scams continue in the private sector.
Una cancion puede cambiar un pais....jaha risa bilingue.
