A candidate of the leftist coalition came to the village of San Ignacio, Honduras, during the election campaign of 1997. The speaker went up the staircase that served as a stage and address the low public proclamation that the left does not corrupt the people, not selling favors in exchange for votes. We do not give food - he added - we do not give jobs, we do not give money. And fuck dates then? Asked a drunkard, who had just woken up from nap under a tree in the square.
