This sentence was initially added as a translation of sentence #3517384Hasta donde comprendo a pesar de mi poco conocimiento, acá en Venezuela uno se adaptar a la mentalidad y el orden social que impera, por lo tanto el individuo debe vivir entre oportunismo, pobreza, manipulación y superficialidad. Tal vez sea una característica propia de la idiosincrasia latina comportarse ante las situaciones delicadas como en el libro <Crónicas de una muerte anunciada> de Gabriel García Márquez, todos saben lo que sucede pero nadie alza la voz o incluso si alguien se dignara a pronunciarse, no recibiría apoyo. Sólo la ilustración a través de la educación podría acabar con la ignorancia que azota al pueblo, y de la cual se derivan muchos otros males. Sin embargo es inverosímil esperar que un gobierno proponga incentivar valores que atenten contra sus intereses, pues a ellos les conviene más mantener a la sociedad ignorante para poderla manipular con facilidad..

As far as I understand with this few knowledge I have acquired in my short life, here in Venezuela we must live according to the prevailing mentality and social order, therefore an individual must live among opportunism, poverty, manipulation and superficiality. It might be a very own characteristic of the Latino idiosyncrasy to behave like in the book <Chronicle of a Death Foretold> by Gabriel García Márquez when it comes to deal with delicate situations. Everybody knows what's happening, but nobody raises his voice or even if somebody did, nobody would support him. Only the enlightenment through education could end the ignorance that scourges our people, from which many other problems come up. However, it's unlikely to expect that a government proposes to spread values that threaten its own interests, because it's better for them to keep society ignorant in order to manipulate them easily.
