It would be a terrible mistake to enact new laws in Mexico with outdated misconceptions that promote differing interests in the workplace whilst in the other hand we might progress towards a more modern take on human behavior by learning from our reality and much like ancient civilizations… evolve on the basis of collaboration and complex social problem solving not problem making.
