  3. They don't solve any problems. Right now, the price of coal has tripled because, unfortunately, the sellers are taking advantage of it, and we poor people are getting even poorer. Life is getting harder every day. There's no salary that can keep us going. May God protect us with his mantle. Amen.

  5. If any leader of this country read this I would be very pleased. I am 62 years old and I have owned a home for 14 years. 14 years ago I was allowed to cook with bright light and alcohol, which I haven't used for 3 years. Thanks to my son, I can cook electrically. I ask, WHEN WILL I BE GIVEN THE RIGHT TO COOK WITH GAS? I have gone to the government and nothing. There are no contracts! What do I have to do? Please, if someone from this state could give me some contrast, I would appreciate it. Thank you.
