THAT'S A LOT OF RIDES

THEIR VOICES:
59 or more new Hummers were said to be given by the Mexican government to the head honchos of the teacher's union who are suppose to be fighting for the rights of the protesting teachers in Cuernavaca, Morelos. WOW! That is a lot of rides! Justification? The Hummers are supposedly raffle prizes that the teachers have a chance of winning. Well that makes sense, stupid me, the majority of public school teachers (who aren't even university educated) that ride the ruta (public transportation) everyday can now use their paychecks to buy gas and insure their Hummers that will be parked outside their mansions. Spectacular!
This is a translation of the views of a young and concerned citizen of Mexico. The conversation took place on October 13, 2008.
