Enduring Legacies & Obligation

"In resend weeks, President Piñera has said that while the military has been assigned all blame for the dictatorship, there are still civilians who benefited from the regime but who have never taken responsibility. In the end, he said, the country need both justice and forgiveness."

I do believe that those that have benefited from the regime should be held responsible and get punished because they sided with the regime and since they knew what was happening, they should have spoke up and done something. The call for justice connects to the call of forgiveness because together they are like the sign of closure and if there is justice and forgiveness, it can be over. This quote says the Chile's citizens do not have a big Universe of Obligation because many of them don't care about others, but about them and their close ones. I say that because if they had a big Universe of Obligation, they would be held responsible and take blame. All the low class citizens and communism would go on the way outside of the circle, politicians and government would go in the first circle, rich people would be in the second circle, communist should be on the last circle.
