Go abroad or stay here?

American culture has been my main interest for a few years; I've always wanted to go to the States, and I even called it a dream. Right now, I'm older and more mature than those days. I doubt about that dream, because I'm sure my happiness shouldn't be bounded to a place or a person but myself.

On the other hand, I find my country a place full of injustice, corruption and abuse of power. I'm not an indiferent person. I can't pass over the badly administration our government has been implementing for a long time. Most of Colombian politicians are dishonest, ambitious, corrupt and rascal. This is disappointing because as election gets close, politicians start to suborn to low-income citizens. The political machine attacks every election, and candidates are just daughters or sons of ex-candidates. Corruption, ambition and dishonesty are in their blood. What can voters do? They are voting for the less miserable candidate. Colombia needs to learn the Blank vote culture. Colombian population thinks blank vote is useless, because they don't understand the power of individual vote. So they vote for someone they consider less..TERRIBLE. I'm 16 years old, so I can't vote yet. I want to be 18 to vote and donate blood. I love Colombia, and this situation hurts me so bad. We are the victims.

This situation is the reason why Colombians want to live abroad, because here there isn't opportunities and injustice abounds.

When will this bad time Colombia's been going through end?

Thanks for your advance,corrections or comments!

Dear Ana,

I also have been aware of the situation going on in Colombia for quite a while. I feel really bad for the ongoing political unrest happening in your country. I hope it ends soon!

And by the way, you don't need any corrections. Your English is perfect. You should bring the English fluency scale all the way up to the five bars instead of two.
