The Just and the Sinners

El Libero, June 16, 2019

Dear Director:

After all the noise generated around the loss of trust in institutions, it is surprising that the evaluation conducted by CADEM has largely gone unnoticed. On Monday, June 10, the Plaza Pública survey No. 282 revealed that the highest-rated institutions are the Civil Registry, PDI, Navy, FACH, Carabineros, and the Army. Closing the list of 14 institutions in last place is the National Congress.

Perhaps it is time for us to be more objective with the evaluations and comments made regarding organizations that, due to their apolitical and non-deliberative role, cannot publicly defend themselves against unfounded judgments. It is easy to shoot at the flock and have the just pay for the sins of the sinners.
