Oh, god. These men worked 25 years on the Itaipu Dam, and were denied benefits because they were allegedly contractors (Against the wording of the agreement, I add).

And 20 more people are going to join.

My god.

If you look at it logically, cannibalism has great potential to simultaneously solve our overpopulation and food shortage problems.

I suppose that makes it a cross between a hunger strike and self immolation.

Being pro-labor myself, I can only hope the Paraguayan government is shamed enough by this display that they'll be moved to right it.

But who am I kidding, nothing good is going to happen.
