THE HANGING STRANGER by Philip k. Dick

In the text " THE HANGING STRANGER" by Philip k. Dick, you may notice a reference to the government, which is the general political leadership or exercise of executive power of the state, for this reason I will make a critique using the current Colombian context.

Policy is the subject on which I'll speak today. Politics is the exercise of power that seeks a transcendent purpose. Promotes citizen participation to possess the ability to distribute and run the power as needed to ensure the common good in society.

During the last years the policy of Colombia has had many shortcomings in education, the loss of values ​​within each family. For this has been criticized too often, society demands to know the truth of the current scourges of the country as violence, poverty, poor distribution of wealth, conformism and corruption. PARAPOLITICA, as it is called the politics of Colombia by the revelation of links between politicians and paramilitary groups (in Colombia are called illegal armed paramilitary groups that are linked to drug trafficking.)

Education in Colombia goes from bad to worse, from primary school to university education because teachers now  fight for money and not for good quality education in the country. This and many other problems already mentioned above do see Colombia as an inferior country from other points of view in different countries.

This dark and harmful situcion who is living Colombia is very unfortunate, because colombian people can not trust either the government itself. On the other hand, the story of Philip k Dick. I really liked becouse it includes among its main issues as government and policy.
