The view to the right
The Catedral
A cool shadow
The zocalo was closed off for renovations
The next few are of the interior of the Catedral. I spent my time in there marveling at the treasure which had been extracted from the people of this country to build dozens of palaces like this to an alien religion.

That last image connects to the first. When capitalism is unchecked, and income inequality becomes so extreme as to be untenable, Communism can gain a foothold. Desperate people will take desperate measures. The United States would do well to heed this warning, especially the corporatists within the Republican party. Capitalism can work, and work well, but only with healthy regulation and a strong socialistic safety net.
