  1. Don't ask for more understanding. We're tired. Without electricity, food, medicine. Now, without gas, without transportation, the unattainable prices. We're destroyed. The situation is already unsustainable. Add to that the violence, the missing people, the unnecessary deaths. We can't take it anymore. We want acceptable solutions for life as it should be.

  2. Until when will the government continue to ask the people for understanding, when we are on the brink of survival? Rising bread prices, gas shortages and their associated bullets, poor nutrition in general, no medicine, and now the arrival of deportees with a significant number of criminals and vagrants, creating high levels of insecurity in the country. Could it really be the state's lack of interest in what is happening to this aging population, which gave everything in its life and doesn't deserve this poor state treatment, while they live like millionaires, owning everything and with no solution to anything? They know the solution, but they fear losing all the benefits they've earned without earning them.

  3. I challenge another country in the world where people can endure such deprivation. What's the secret? We're not thugs, because we've finished off Batista, the king of repressors.
