Can Money buy everything: the marketization of society?

Can Money buy everything: the marketization of society?

In our globalization society money and the biggest multinationals want to buy everything of human’s life and nearly they can get it. Nowadays these companies have bought a lot of moral feelings of the population like dignity, freedom and pride. We can see these in a lot of situations in our daily life. Michael Sandel gives us good and clear examples because he explains in detail all the situation discussing with the audience.

Sandel talks about the moral limits but I think we can’t talk about some situations if we haven’t suffered these. In my opinion we can’t say I don’t accept money from a big company because they want to establish a dangerous factory because we can have our father with cancer and something like that and we need money to pay the operation. 

Human Rights!

The human rights are the fundamental rights that every person have simply by the fact of being human. These were created after the Second World War be the United Nations when this came into being as an intergovernmental organization, with the purpose of saving future generations from the devastation of international conflict. So, after this global conflict there was the necessity to create and establish some rules for all the population trying to avoid another world war.

Nowadays there are thirty human rights and in my case I am not familiar with the 21^st.  I know there is freedom of expression in the Declaration of the Human Rights but I didn’t know about the fact that everybody has the right to take part in the government of his country, directly or through freely chosen representatives.

In our century we can see a lot of countries with a democracy and we think it’s obvious, but all over the world there are some countries without democracy because there are dictatorships. Specifically in EUA there is only one dictatorship (Cuba), another one in Europe (Belarus), 19 in Asia and 16 in Africa and we can stand out China, North Korea…

So, there are some populations that are fighting against these dictatorships.

What's a soulmate?

The prototype of a soulmate is different for everyone but in a general way we can describe it as a person with whom one has a strong affinity, shared values and sometimes a romantic relationship.

The relationship with a soulmate is so different from the others because these are more tenacious and profund. So when we are with a person and we feel better than with our friends, more secure and protected, then we know we are in front of our soulmate.

Moreover we have the tendency to look at this person into the eyes in a different way from the others because it's an intense relationship and you can't imagine a life without him or her.

As a conclusion I have to say everybody has a soulmate but maybe nobody has found him/her. So keep calm because the elements to know who is one are much clearer.

Koke says Atletico Madrid still have faith in their own ability

Atletico de Madrid was a club that nobody think about they can be in February battling for the league with Real Madrid and Barcelona. But the truth is they have been doing an extraordinary campaign and they deserve their feelings of win. In the first round their win Madrid in the Santiago Bernabeu but now the situation has changed because Madrid is like a road roller because they don’t lose until December more or less and Atletico de Madrid had been losing the last three matches in Spanish league.

They don’t have to worry about this fact because every big team happen the same situation every year because of the physical effort. They have to stay strong and this Sunday they have to fight against Real Madrid to recover mentality forces and stay at the top of the league.
