go straight to the point.

What came to my head, when I received the text, was that things are always difficult for the worker class. Its
impossible to believe how much the people can forget they are humans before they are a people who wins a salary. Its not
really this important, anyway We are all the same right? But most of people dont agree and they treat another people with
the point of their shoes. I ask it is posible to start again and feel we are all identical? Sex, salary, age is not important. It
usually calls my attention the fact that my pseudo friends from this university treats auxiliaries with less respect than must.
We (they) fill our mouths with revolution and similar concepts but at the time of act nothing happens and that should be
critised right?
Therefore if nothing happens what can be done? We shall remember that the people for whom we are here
(our father and our Mother) are important, and they deserve our respect. And if your parents are poor you have to respect
them anyway and trie to help them.
The problem is that never we want to have conversations about this. Always We want to talk about problems in other
cauntries but what happened in our cauntry is more important because it directly affect us. I believe its time that we we stop
believing that injustice is outside Chile and note that our social problems are more enormous. And the Text is clear we
shouldnt treat the worker classes bad because, we are all workers or sons of workers. We are all identical and that is
important, and beutiful. Our university must do something in relation to that.
