Politics
Author’s comment
I agree with the convenient idea that mankind should be organized. The ones that in our society wish to participate in the organization of our lives are those who at the moment we call politics.
They say they want our welfare, our personal development, our work and our freedom. Naturally, they primarily expose their particular and firm vision of what they will proportionate us and of what is the best for us.
Undoubtedly their first ambition is to order and afterwards to decide on our lives. When they reach their objectives (govern?) they change their proposals in order to command even more. They do not entail our welfare, the culture that we wish for. They condition our work and our freedom. And they do this either directly or indirectly.
This work of art reflects what politics is: many tongues, many meetings, many expressions, and much treason… and they will eventually be the ones who organize us.
