La carísima paz
Written by Mariana Belloso
You can live in relative peace in El Salvador, if you have the resources to afford it. There’s a direct relation between how poor people are, and how vulnerable they are in front of the country’s violence and insecurity.
A minority, the same portion of the population with de higher income, can buy “peace”, in the form of private security services, bodyguards, armored vehicles or extra secured houses.
But the rest, the people with lower income, have to deal with robbery, violations, extortions, and other types of violence.
