It’s Our Own Back Yard
I’ve been trying to get more serious discussion going about Latin America the last couple weeks, but to no avail. Maybe this column by Michael Barone will help. I’ve just looked at the obvious problems in Argentina and Colombia. But Barone takes on Mexico and Venezuela, too.

The upshot? Democratic capitalism (or neoliberism as Baron likes to call it) isn’t dead in Latin America — but somebody needs to dial 911.
