To respond to BMoon, true, esp re Milton and the Chicago Boys no doubt, but I hardly think the average Mexican should complain about fast food/capitalism, when in fact it IS another form of employment, revenue, etc.
Mark, exactly. When you have a busted water pipe in your house, do you first plug the hole then call the plumber or do you think, debate, ponder whether you’re being “insensitive” and then decide? Needless to say, astute folks do the latter.
And to PDK, well, that’s a lefty stance. I assure you that NO ONE here understands the poverty there, especially the liberal elite, but we do know that those who flee those nations—surely not all of whom are wealthy or educated—appreciate America and loathe Chavez. They also tend to be patriotic and vote Republican as they know the horrors of populism, socialism and communism.
So do not apologize for him is such a coy way, especially from the comforts of your American (coastal?) home.
