Rizal envisioned the pre-colonial Filipino as prosperous and well-advanced.

Explanation:

Jose Protasio Rizal was a nationalist in Filipino during the Spanish colonial period. He was born on June 19, 1861. Jose posed that pre-colonial Filipino was much advanced than the colonial times. He dug up the past of pre-colonial Filipino and stated that Spain tried to erased the past of Filipino to befool them and dictate to them that they were indolence before the colonial times.

But Rizal envisioned pre-colonial Filipinos as advanced in industry. He asseted that people in Filipinos were hardworking before the colonial times, they were diligent, they knew trading, mining, tilling, etc. He states that the indolence in Filipinos came after they came under colonial rule.

the lowest among the social higher rank were the working class. this class remained detached to the political progression   of the country and was hostile to the other two classes

he believed that congress would be better not dealing with "lobbyists", or people who seek to influence (a politician or public official) on an issue, since historically, they had problems with these kinds of people. he thought lobbying produces benefits, but should be carefully monitored.
