"All of us Mexicans, but especially politicians, must get used to an open exchange, because democracy is in a one-way street in our history. There is still much work to be done by all of us, especially in the field of values. Too much concern has been given to economic issues and very little to the ethics that must flow beneath a true democracy. We have to realize that a sound economy and a wealthy nation is at the same time a fair one if values are placed first."
