    South American governments should get their shit together. But they can’t and we all know why. Importing that here is like shitting in your pool then wondering why no one want to swim at your pool party.

      Yeah we all know why. Because every time someone improves conditions for their citizens and nationalized american industries, they get Allende’d.

      It’s pretty hard to “get your shit together” when a hegemonic for profits from you not having your shit together.

      In the mean time, what should the regular people do? Just keep suffering through society in a chokehold from drug cartels? Keep raising their kids there?
