Corruption Or Freedom

We are in the month of September. Month of the country. Month which is dedicated to the memory of Mexico's independence from the Spanish Crown. The official story claims that on the morning of September 16, 1810, she Independence against the Spanish Empire, becoming the "Father of the Nation?, The priest Don Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla. But do not take the historical data, chronological, which was consummated this independence from Spanish rule, the September 27, 1821, the day Agustín de Iturbide, triumphantly entered Mexico City, a day that the treaty was signed which recognized the fledgling independent nation in the Spanish Crown, Mexico instituted a monarchy, totalitarian government totally uneven. Who is lying then that cheers the night of September 15 when Father Hidalgo as the "Father of the Nation?, Reaching the" Vivas? Jose Maria Morelos, "her Ladyship? Josefa Ortiz de Dominguez and some other "heroes? more? Who is wrong? Why? Where are the heroes who do not state that their names do not cry that night? Where is Iturbide? Where is "The Master? Torres, Javier Mina Galeana brothers?

Where is Primo de Verdad, the true precursor of independence? They say that history is written by the victors ... In the prelude to the bicentennial of Mexican independence, was created in my mind the intriguing question: Is Mexico, we, we really independent? Or are we victims of history, the corruption of this, the simple corruption? In these times when the buzzword is "global? and being present in all areas of a country, it might be a bit strange and risky proclaim confirmation. The world is globalized, global culture, customs globalized globalized economy itself, there is nothing that is not global. For this country is overflowing in each of its functions, it is necessary to have "well-oiled gears?, It runs the risk of being adrift explode if only certain items, as in colonial times and some more of our national history. Now, respecting the terms "Globalists?, Keeping the distance to any comment without much weight and research everything, without being an economist, or political, much less a historian, just an ordinary citizen, like you, like me, who seeks the truth and find answers, return to the question: Does Mexico, we, we really independent?

Or are we victims of history, manipulation, corruption of this, the simple corruption? Every September is history repeating itself. El Grito de Dolores Korea and again in each balcony where a government is in place in public schools, private, this event taking civic action across the country. The cry "Viva Hidalgo, Morelos, and so on. And so on. ... Live Nation who gave us?, Listening becomes farcical and embarrassing for me. How do agree on this speech after listening to demagogue, to know the details of public life, private life of the country I was born, where I live?

It is certain that when given the struggle for independence, then the insurgents, their desires and motivations were larger, is that Mexico was far from the clutches of exploitation, dependence of the Crown, Spanish at the time, resulting in forge its own destiny and yes, have a homeland of their own, governed by Mexicans. However, there is always the legacy of the Spanish and that when combined with the "idiosyncrasies? Mexican, it becomes a "badge? most of our culture: Corruption. The dictionary of the Spanish Language defines "Corruption? as the action of spoil, alter, vitiate, pervert, bribe to something, someone to benefit themselves or a few. Starting in that sense we can consider that corruption is present in all forms and for having in Mexican society, as part of Mexican folklore. Corruption is in the circle closest to us: ourselves. According to serious studies on the subject Mexicans are very prone to corruption, "fix everything below the water?," Catch of the People? "Than not? and other expressions so typical to invite "co-operate?. How many times have we been given the slogan of a "bite? not be fined, receive a "please?, special treatment?

But not only occurs in the personal sphere. What about the corruption in our body, our thoughts, feelings? Are inter-personal relationships? In these areas there is also corruption. Failure to act on convictions, beliefs, thoughts and feelings to dictate what is to be corrupt. Do not be yourself is corruption. We corrupt it ourselves. Corruption is not only social classes. There is also in the institutions of government. Corruption in public finances is the order of the day. It is very common in first-level civil servants earn more than the salary that corresponds on the payroll, tripled, quadrupled the salary to concepts of public spending, fictitious, arguing that the law is what it deserves and ignoring the laws of the represented. Just to be certified public accounts, but as something that nobody wants to do because they are paperwork and more paperwork, cumbersome all, we leave behind. We apologize, saying, "Let them do the rest. Involved is to create problems?. Apathy is also part of Mexican folklore. Corruption is also present in the political parties in their own members, politicians, supposedly placed in power by popular vote-their outrages are in every newspaper article, every day, to the extent that it is "custom ? and give the "okay? with unreflective justification, saying, "So are the politicians, what can we do? There is also corruption in television, in the mass media, be it television, radio, newspapers.

Have you ever wondered why it is at night, almost at dawn, projecting reflection programs, opinion, criticism, political content, programs that invite people to think? Simple and simply for that reason. To avoid a thinking people, intelligent, that their rulers question their actions, a situation that also benefits the media are in collusion, being assigned to each other and achieve benefits in this way, manipulate social consciousness. Instead, schedule "family? or that the common people is the expectation of the programs broadcast on television, radio or print media (newspapers, magazines) are materials of low social programs, sports, gossip, fashion, jet set news, telenovelas, or worse, foreigners who have nothing to do with the tastes and habits of our society. In many cases these programs "junk? will "win?, occupy the spaces and times to nationals, because they are selling, which create the curiosity, or just not" invest? local programming and / or the courage to establish a voice. All this material and programming is done with the intention of creating "a smokescreen? to distract the public opinion of the transcendental.

You just have to remember the famous "Chupacabras, the" castaways? 2006. Someone very important that television guild used to say: "To the people bread and circuses?, Paraphrasing the words of a famous Roman. And someone else said, "every nation has the government it deserves?. In the experience of each moment we are present we incur in these types of corruption, not necessarily just economic, moral, values. Corruption is any act that goes against its nature, its essence. As a solution, we can conclude that to err is human and likewise, correct. The worst corruption is not to act on our part to do, think and even feel. With this apathy relegates us the right to have its own voice, by pure and simple comfort. The justification and avoidance are our best weapons, not to transcend, yes, but also the best way to stay oblivious to the personal, social, national, and with this, we fall into the vicious circle to deny us our own identity, freedom, beginning and therefore the right to assert our courage and freedom to others. This was the real struggle of the liberators of the country.

They fought for their ideals, hopes and died for them, believing that it was and it was the right thing. We have those same options. Strive to live a life according to our beliefs, desires, expectations, or otherwise live in mediocrity, in the shadow of the victors. The national heroes wrote their story. Today we remember. We have the option of writing our own. Will you dare to be a hero of your own history or let others be who write about your olive wreaths? Will you dare to be a new Mexican or let the weight of the stories of others, of mediocre fall on you? The coin is thrown into the air ... History is waiting for your dictation ... Remember: History is written by the victors. Do you expect or we withdraw? You decide ...
