This man has a personal fortune of 2.600 billions dollars , and in the past year of 2010 , hes fortune increase in 200 millions dollars as Fobes says , well done peoples of Chile ! and the changes are the poor becoming more poor ! the sistem , is so insane .
we are just going back 30 yeas ago to the rotten country of the military goverment... don't you think is unussual that Mr. Allamand said that the human rights cases that were still open must have een closed with or without an acussed...???? please tell me if that's not going back
Prejudice. Just like when Peruvians are told we Chileans are going to invade their country.
The human rights thing is not an issue most people care about, it must be solved with those involved/affected by it.
Besides, what we care about now is to make our country progress so that we can soon become a developed country, that's what we are all thinking of and that's why people chose S. Piñera as next president.
yes... I'm not telling that nobody from the political left is not going to cooperate for a better country... But it's an issue that some people from the right is not going to accept... and besides the human rights is an important issue fo a big ammount of chileans.... I include myself because my grandfather was tortured just because he worked side by side with Mr. Bachelet... and for no other eason...
We both agree on it, there are some people from the right who would love to get rid of the human right issue without being solved just like some people from the left don't want to accept Allende created division among all chileans causing the coup. I'm sorry what happened to your gandfather, but for most chileans human rights violation is not a priority, that doesn't mean it doesn't have to be once and for all solved.
Let's see him work first, than we can say anything.
You can buy the public's brain with flashy colours and mood music. If your commercial appeals to the gooey centre or adventurous fantasies, the music has an escalating orchestral fervour and the you show elemental beauty, nature, waterfalls, or prsoperity - shiny offices, shiny business suits, smiles and sophistication - you can rob the fuck out of them like an adept.
It's sooooooooooo easy to con them. All it takes is dough.
A right wing billionaire is going to help you out? I thought you Chileans were doing very well; why make a fundamental shift in the opposite direction when you're doing well? It makes no sense..
@Kiddolinfen09 you realise that you have been the 10th economically freest country for a long time. the left did very little to change pinochet's economic policies. as a result of your freer markets you are by many accounts the most prosperous country in latin america. it could be worse, you could be Venezuela.
I feel pretty good about this guy. He sure knows a lot about economics, owning many companies and being a professor of economics. I think he'll create more jobs for Chile.
im ashamed to be chilean... how can the people allow a BUSINESS man to run a country... change.. there will be no change... privatization will be the only change, and as always the poor will get fucked up the ass... i will never forgive my country man for electing a man that got rich working with a dictator and even proposing to choose ex pinochetistas to run for cabinet, disgusting, now chile will pay the consequences and they deserve it for letting it come this far.
I'm happy for Chile. Congratulations! Proud to have a Chilean mother haha, she's still in Santiago with my relatives and happy for this! Congratulations!
Another fucking Berlusconi or Thaksin wannabe (or Mike Bloomberg for that matter)! Why would you vote a billionaire into office? If you are rich, ok. But given the level of inequality in the country, change would be voting for Enríquez-Ominami to narrow the gap that the center left hasn't addressed. The last thing Chile (or any other country) needs is a return of Pinochet-lite, or more of the kleptocratic capitalists who've gotten the world into its current economic mess.
many candidates have used the slogan "Change". Obama is not the first. Before Obama's "Change" slogan, the Canadian Prime Minister used the "Change" slogan to win his election a few years back. just look it up.

The only way for anyone to "Gain" wealth is to take it from someone else.
