Regulation is good, I think is sign of a healthy nation. But I also think some rules the government applies reinforce the perception its "people" are always doing something wrong. Take these last few months in our megalopolis as an example: Speed limits down to 80 kpm, banning circulation of some cars on different days of the week because ozone pollution has taken its toll on Mexicans health, and last but not least, an endless set of tax reforms that makes any decent entrepreneur not want to be one anymore.

I'm not saying we should not do these things, it's a way of collaborating for a healthier scenario for all of us. Yet when we learn the stuff we held as true, is really just a way to make money from the fees we have paid throughout the years, then it becomes an issue of injustice and that doesn't make us irrational towards regulation, it just makes us outrageously mad.

Anyways, it seems we have been trying to sum our effort for everything the government seems to conscientiously analyse and know in regards of what to do for the best of our nation but what about the regulation of the unfit? The big buses that not only race each other for new passengers but that pollute more than any of our cars ever will.

What about the Panama Papers entrepreneurs that blame their involvement into these offshore practices to sensationalist journalism? Who will regulate these people when at the same time, the taxation offices are trying to close the fence on every single movement we make as if we are the ones that use warehouses or different accounts for dark purposes?

It seems to me we have to become better citizens, this I can't deny, specially if we ever want this to happen. But as long as presidents, senators and deputies keep denying us the rights we're running after, it's not our entire fault that change has not come yet.
