Speak your mind

In this evidence, you have to write a composition expressing to what extent Agree
or disagree with the following statements. Make use of critical thinking

Strategies you learned at previous levels.

1. A political system is optimal not because it produces the policies that you
prefer. It produces the policies that many smart people prefer.

It is contradictory. Because if there is education, health, housing and food, there

are people who consider that this is a not very smart policy. If it is smart to raise
taxes, do infrastructure works to steal the national budget, starve poor children in
programs of nutrition, patronage. It is not very smart to create new companies that
compete with others so as not to disturb business groups that want to protect their
rights above the common good and steal in monopolies.

2. The ideal system depends on the cultural attributes of the population.

If true, in countries like Holland, Belgium, Norway, Filandria, Japan are countries
with a high level of development. Japan is badly seen appropriating the resources
because it is a damage done to the whole society and the country. They are not
selfish. Think about the development of your people. We create companies to give
work. They created a system that develops its citizens. He does not sell his vote,
very contrary in Colombia. Colombia's political system is clientelistic, it buys the
person's vote, it is a form of violence and self-destruction. The Colombian politician
does not seek the common good, he seeks to enrich himself and perpetuate
himself as a dictator, kleptocracy I would say, these people wish to live in the
public purse. Those who report are crushed by system, which is based on the
elimination of opponents, disappearance and extermination. This type of behavior
can not be tolerated. This Colombian political class is opposed to any change to be
able to continue with the corruption that Colombians cost us. We deserve our luck.
The citizen who thinks that he can not change his country with the vote is wrong.
Cultural attributes can be changed.

3. Individuals must be admitted to schools and hired for capacity based jobs.

It is the best. It is good for the system to be impartial, not to appeal to favoritism,
nepotism that is the worst. Each person is a proposal of itself. We can all show the
capabilities and say I have what you need. With all professional titles and
certificates. Putting a person who is not trained is doubly expensive for a company.

4. Unlike the private sector, the government is motivated by the public

interest.

Not worse, Colombia's political system does not apply this motto. All have interests
in the private sector, previously the political class of this country resorts to this
practice. It is so cultured in Colombian society that doing the right thing to be
frowned upon. An example is a contractor, you can inflate your prices to be able to
win more in a contract in the public or private sector.

5. Taxes allow the government to create jobs and provide programs. Needy
people.

Taxes are necessary for the development of works, which allows the modernization
of the city. Taxes have to be directed at programs that help to get out of poverty.
These programs should focus on: education, health, housing and food. Current
programs have served a great deal for families who wish to excel. Elemental things
like appliances, educational subsidies, health and housing positively impacts
people. Another thing is that in that group of people are not poor, are accessing
benefits to avoid paying taxes and receive aid.

6. Government programs encourage people to become dependent and lazy.

Instead of inspiring them to become workers and independents.

If true. There are too many people who get used to living off the crumbs. Subsidies
see it as something that is vital to their lives. There are different cases it is not the
same old grandfather who is at risk of poverty and malnutrition that is paid a
subsidy to help him. Also the subsidy of stratum 2 and 1 for water, electricity and
gas are people who have no job opportunity due to lack of education and
corruption of the system. Other cases are people who seek to evade tax payments
and use this excuse to hide their fortunes. Poor people who feel they are not
capable and have a weak mindset
