The courage and persistence of Chileans in spite of the violence and abuse of the Piñera government is only proportional to the long period of social inequality after the long years of dictatorship imposed by bloody dictator Augusto Pinochet.
Keeping the distance, Piñera's government looks pretty much like that Syria's Bashar Assad in that both are willing to torture, kill and maim opponents in order to keep their grip on power.
