the end of the word is near
i really can not even begin to express my feelings for everything that is going on in Puerto Rico. How can the gov. let the Dept. of Education go to the ground. Doesn't the constitution express that every child is entitled to their education? and for that matter a free education? there are not enough private schools in PR to be able to get all these kids in and that is considering that all the parents would pay which is just wishful thinking now that at least 30 to 40 % of PR is within the poverty line! this is so sad. just like viv said this is due to the gov. taking what they can and "el pueblo" not caring untill they were really in the pits. You know i had been comparing the situation with the island ending up as Cuba but at least Cuba still has a education system. Doesn't the gov feel bad? And don't the people feel embarassed and degraded? Its a notch down from the society level and not to mention the worldly news cast that are to go on. What im thinking is that PR has fought so much to not accept USA to buy them and now they might just end up in there hands! What is ur opinion?

It's good that you're posting, but it's sad that you're posting mostly sad things.
About feeling embarassed or degraded, of course we do (well, ok, some of us). I can't wait to get off this island (no, not going to Florida), but some of us have to make do with what we can.
I think that Puerto Rico just wants to get as much as it can with giving back as least as possible. Which is disgusting. But that's what's been taught here since that damn ELA was instituted.
Btw, it's Stella..so don't freak out thinking it's anonymous commenting!

Don't fret my people. Don't fret. The world will keep spinning and life will go on. And since its a small insignifican island no one will care but, maybe, the ones living there.
I'm sorry. Its the truth.
