Dear Friends:
I would like to share with you some of the comments posted
by myself in the WSJ Journal Community about important headlines of the Wall
Street Journal from April 27 to May 3.
The comments are about politics, economy, business, social
issues, education and technology in the United
States, Europe and
the world.
As you can see for the RECOMMENDATIONS, the majority of
these comments generated a good interaction with other members of the Journal
Community.

MY COMMENT: When there are big disasters and
catastrophes, people and organizations from different part of the world try to
make businesses using the suffering of the victims in their benefit.
For this reason, the
authorities of the place (in this case, Nepal) have the right to organize the entry of aid
supplies, and the technical and humanitarian assistance.
The United Nations
have special organizations that can assist the Nepalese authorities in a
responsible way. 1 Recommendation 05/03/2015 02:16:34 PM
MY COMMENT: The protests will continue because the air is
full of fury and the activists are making a good business. 4 Recommendations 05/03/2015 05:06:10 AM
MY COMMENT
ANSWERING TO ANOTHER MEMBER OF THE JOURNAL COMMUNITY:
The problem is not
only Baltimore... Did you forget Ferguson and New York?
This is a national
problem... We are returning to the past because there are a lot of social
problems and the politicians are busy in the campaigns but they don't put
enough effort to learn about the problems of the people and how to modify the
aggressive attitude of some groups of policemen in poor areas with racial
discrimination. 2 Recommendations 05/03/2015 09:22:01 AM
MY COMMENT: The British Royal Family is growing like in
the fairy tales. 1 Recommendation 05/02/2015 07:33:03 PM
MY COMMENT: Every year, Warren Buffett leads the annual
conference of the Berkshire shareholders with a lot of action and
activities around him.
We can rename the current
story as "The 2015 business show of Warren Buffett.” For a billionaire,
this is a good entertainment. 1 Recommendation 05/02/2015 07:28:52 PM
MY COMMENT: We are living in times when the reality of
every day and the drama of the streets are distant from the windows of the
offices of government.
It is looks like a
tragic comedy, but it is serious disconnection between the busy agenda of the
politicians and the cry of the people who don’t have life options. 8

MY COMMENT: This story says that “six Baltimore police officers were be charged… in the
death of Freddie Gray”, but it does not enough information to know all that
happened before he died.
With these
“pictures”, the Baltimore
State’s Attorney Marilyn Mosby will not calm the
protesters. 1 Recommendation 05/01/2015 11:54:37 AM
MY COMMENT: You are talking about Vietnam’s war…, but your subject is longer: “The
real lesson is that bad things happen when the U.S. loses or walks away from a war”.
The second point of
your subject “… when the U.S. walks away from a war” is the case of Iraq, something different from Vietnam, but with very negative consequences.
When we walk away
from a war, we can plan our actions before we leave the battlefield. This didn’t
happen in Iraq, and now we see the consequences. 3 Recommendations 05/01/2015 01:44:00 AM
MY COMMENT: The news says that Vermont Senator. Bernie
Sanders will run for the Democratic presidential nomination challenging Hillary
Clinton.
In a democracy, it
is important to hear everybody. The diversity of opinions gives us a wide
spectrum of political tones. This does not imply that we will applaud
everybody.

On Al
Sharpton’s Baltimore : - PART 1
MY COMMENT: @Wayne Mayo
The reverend Al
Sharpton likes to stay in the noise of the protests. He runs from a riot to
another, and he does not help to put calm…
Al Sharpton has not
the capacity to put order among the people around him. His interventions are
disastrous. 3 Recommendations 04/30/2015 02:19:33 AM
On Al
Sharpton’s Baltimore : - PART 2
MY COMMENT
ANSWERING TO ANOTHER MEMBER OF THE JOURNAL COMMUNITY:
Today, the racial
violence is worse than 8 or 10 years ago. 4 Recommendations 04/30/2015 02:26:59 AM
MY COMMENT: After the terrible earthquake that shook Nepal, the claims of some groups against the
authorities will complicate more the effort to the recovery of the country.
When we live
dramatic moments with very serious problems, always some people like to create
more problems. 1 Recommendation 04/29/2015 02:41:05 PM
MY COMMENT: Ferguson, New York… and now Baltimore are giving a very bad picture of our domestic problems. Across the
world, the international media is showing each riot with a big smile in the
face of the journalists: “Oh! This is the America!”
We are returning to
decades ago when the Afro-Americans did not have access to the top positions of
the institutions of the government.
It is time that
authorities and police reconsider the incidents with minorities and the
motivations of the riots:
First: Everybody –
white, black, Latino, Asian… – deserve a fair treatment of the police forces.
Second: The
authorities have to take a firm attitude against agitators and criminals who
want to make their business destroying cities and creating problems to the
civil population. 2 Recommendations 04/29/2015 01:26:35 PM
MY COMMENT: The last economic graphics show that since
2010, the economy of the United States grows a little and after that, it goes down.
In this way, it is
not possible to enter in a period of a strong and continuous growth. 1
Recommendation 04/29/2015 12:34:51 PM
MY COMMENT: We are living a serious crisis of the
religious principles of the society, in part due to the changes that technology
has generated in the life of the people.
In addition, during
the last decades, a lot of religious leaders did not answer crucial questions
of the believers in the right way.
However, I don’t
believe the future of religion is bleak. I prefer to say that the future of
religion will be different that we know today. 1 Recommendation 04/28/2015 03:35:28 PM
MY COMMENT: Like the news says, the members of the U.S
Supreme Court appear divided about the gay marriage.
The gay marriage is
a social issue. Never the changes about social issues are fast and immediate.
The activists have to way… 1 Recommendation 04/28/2015 03:18:29 PM
MY COMMENT: It is sad for Nepal and the world that after the earthquake now
History is only rubble, but it is terrible more painful that the toll of
corpses continue growing.
(Some sources talks
about 7000 dead people…) 2 Recommendations 04/28/2015 02:16:55 PM
MY COMMENT: According
to the news, the White House is dealing a new trade deal with the Asian
countries and a lot of Democrats are against it.
In this case,
President Obama has to go ahead without the support of his normal political
partners. He is not familiar with this kind of situation. 2 Recommendations 04/27/2015 03:18:32 PM
MY COMMENT: The news says that the South Korean Prime
Minister steps down after a short time in charge of the government due to
corruption problems.
In other countries,
presidents and prime ministers are accused of bribery or other crimes, but they
remain in power.
Today, across the
world, the political apparatus is not a chorus of angels. We are living in
times where the corruption is in the top! 04/27/2015 03:05:26 PM
MY COMMENT: The defense of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is trying to
put the weight of responsibility of the bombing attack in his dead brother
because he is not more in this world.
This is not justice
because Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was also directly involved in the Boston Marathon
bombing. He has to be punished for his responsibility in the killing. 04/27/2015 02:51:32 PM
