Reflection:
5. In your own opinion, which between abuse of power and social inequality should be
solved first? Why?
I believe that addressing social inequality should come first. That is because it affects
the entire country, whereas abuse of power only affects those in positions of power. In
our country, social inequality is becoming more of a problem; thousands of citizens
are not receiving what they are entitled to, even when it comes to their human rights.
Furthermore, even if authorized people act in accordance with their positions, it
means nothing if they continue to ignore or ignore those in the shadows. Eliminating
 abuses of power should be a priority for the upper class, while addressing social
inequality should be a shared responsibility.
