Around the forms of slavery on our time
As you know Democracy was born in Athens, but of what form of democracy was whether there was slavery? And what has happened to slaves in our time? They received a semblance of freedom?
... in Athens the slave not voting ...
so there is the possibility that freely and spontaneously choose a citizen for the good of the community is necessary that he is free from primary needs ....
... that this problem does not solve the corruption that is common ground ...
that someone can buy votes by building on vices and the inclinations of this or that other person is another speech on a different problem of ethical .... but that an individual is taken out of necessity for survival then it is a speech that concerns the needs and freedom.
Becaues my votes are bought ... if they are in need ...
and go in fact to deny democracy and my own freedom ... they conclude for me.
In antiquity the slave was such because he had lost in the struggle: do you live if you become my slave. The individual is found himself faced with a choice, die or become slave. Today, paradoxically, many are close to a choice linked to survival.
Life can be threatened with indifference: not exist, six held out from the table ... Please note we are not talking only of those who sleeps on the streets, often these poor people who are the real poor of freedom, sit at tables of senior management .... and then sell without knowing it, the mother earth for two money.
One of the main forms of contemporary slavery, is to have to pay dearly daily satisfaction of basic needs such as housing.
In other words one can not be a free citizen and thus participate freely in political life in the country
if you slap under the need to meet the basic needs. What is the condition of need. The needy can not afford to contest, can not choose not belong, who is the guarantee survival.
When the true freedom enshrined in the constitution, it should be implemented.
The realization of the development of the human person who takes an active part in political life of the country believe is a problem closely related to freedom of the individual needs on essential goods.
... the network is so dense that now many are those who derive their livelihood and of his family income and assets unclear .. for many the legality is a luxury that can not afford for others is something that has never existed .... in such a fabric, denounce certain issues is tantamount to creating problems
.... go beyond the sides when it comes to fundamental issues that may endanger the foundation of democratic countries is a necessary conquest.
The ancients distinguished: legality, justice and revenge .... this new form of legality widespread today is quite distinct from justice, precisely because the system is affected, contaminated by a virus from the culture, universities, schools, language, media, the new content that are infected data in terms of the founding culture of a people ... terms such as freedom .... legality, justice, civilization .... the words are like wagons of a train crossing the history and years are filled with meaning adapting to the times, in these changes over time acting inserted by the virus who controls the largest number of means of communication and is able to doing "culture" ... in their time ....

Now McAbel became a shepherd of a flock, but McCain cultivated the land. In the course of time McCain presented some of the land’s produce as an offering to the LORD. And McAbel also presented an offering — some of the firstborn of his flock and their fat portions. The Lord had regard for McAbel and his offering, but He did not have regard for McCain and his offering. McCain was furious, and he was downcast.
So one day McCain said to the LORD:
Why you like the sacrifices of McAbel and not accept my?
He kills the herds, devoid of animal life, I offer You the fruits of the earth, and not devoid of any life, and you do not accept my sacrifices.
Then I will offer You McAbel as a secondborn of your flock...
McCain so invents murder.
Now McAbel became a shepherd of a flock, but McCain cultivated the land. In the... more
