    Why the TNYT don´t take care of their own enegy supplies in USA....nuclear, thermal, hydro power plants are working there and they say nothing at all, but when we decide what we think it´s the best for us then they speak out loud against it...Please, keep your nose under your own ass and leave us live our life as we want...Why don´t talk about the bigger hydro power plants under plan in Brazil´s Amazonas or Argentina's Patagonia for the next years?? Those are wild sites too to take care, aren´t they??? Why we must pay bigger electricity bills just because some “gringos” wants to keep this little area of the Chilean Patagonia for them ??? We need energy to develope our country on the next decade so this is a very important project to us and nobody have the right to decide for us, even if is a foreing journalist (what a “proffesional”) that have never been on the Patagonia or near to Chile, probably...So, please TNYT, keep your efforts to give the “illegal” Latam´s a way to “legalize” them because the USA without the “espaldas calientes” (hot backs) will have a very big problem to do the dirty works that they do...or why don´t try to help the USA to get back to a growing economy (the Chinnese are over your head right now, yankees...and the Brazilians, Indians, etc)..
    So, get worried about your own problems and let us live as we wants...wet boys.
