Unfortunately, the 'American Way' is well beyond the reach of some nations. They have to settle with what works for them. Backwardness takes its toll. :no:
"BACKWARDNESS" i watched a programme last night pino,it was about latin america,and the disgraceful foreign policy of the US government,keeping right-wing dictators and the rich establishment in power,while the poor live in abject poverty,it also told the true story about venezuela,and how the US backed a coup,which was planned in advance,with the oppostition ( the rich establishment,military figures,and the anti-chavez media) they kidnapped him,tried to get him to resign,they swore in a new unelected government,but the people came onto the streets in support of chavez,he was released and certain members of the coup fled to the US,you talk about BACKWARDNESS,does that mean keeping the rich establishment in power and the poor in poverty,which is the case in latin america.
