Salvador AllendeI believe that every president wants to give everyone work but they can't; they want everyone to eat but they can't make it happen. The same happens with education. So we have to ask ourselves, "Why can't we do anything?"
Salvador AllendeI have experience and I am employing it in the service of a Chilean road for Chile's problems.
