We are just simple citizens held by the hands of the power

A citizen is entitled to life, liberty, property, to equality before the law. In a few words: To have civil rights.
It is also participate in the destination of a society, to vote and be voted, to have political rights.
The right to a judicial system that is impartial, without conflicts of interest of favors, the civil and political rights do not ensure democracy without social rights, those which guarantee the participation of the person in collective wealth: the right to education, work, fair salary, health, protection on ageing, and security. To have access to a impartial and independent information in the economic, cultural and political areas. However, people forget the most essential values of humanity, such as solidarity and sharing. Life, always, is only possible because it is based on cooperation and solidarity.
