We've talked a lot about compassion the last couple of days, and what's happening really is that people are unable quite to bring themselves to put in good sexual and reproductive health services for sex workers, unable quite to be giving out needles to junkies. But once they've gone from being transgressive people whose behaviors we don't want to condone to being AIDS victims, we come over all compassionate and buy them incredibly expensive drugs for the rest of their lives.
Hemos hablado mucho sobre compasión en el último par de días. Y lo que está pasando realmente es que la gente es incapaz de coordinarse para instaurar buenos servicios de salud sexual y reproductiva para sus trabajadoras sexuales, incapaz de entregar agujas a los drogadictos, pero una vez que pasaron de ser gente transgresiva, cuyo comportamiento no queremos condonar, a ser víctimas del SIDA, nos volvemos todos compasivos y les compramos drogas increíblemente caras por el resto de sus vidas.
