The "poor's plague" in Latin America - 26 Dec 08

[Frogstomp121]

Everyone should read Open Veins of Latin America by Eduardo Galeano for a good idea of why Latin America is in the shape it is in.

@Frogstomp121 why is this the case I found this video by acsident I was horrified I live in Canada and even our poor don't live like this...though I am conserned over our country now because the U.S. signs agreements with us and now we are loosing control over our own oil...that is scarey...

[Btony09]

These countries have plenty of natural resources to provide for itself but the governments are so corrupt that hardly any profit from things such as those make it to the people especially the poor.

[lucy9359]

@Btony09 I have actually began to suspect that alot of the poverty we are seeing in the world is because of the U.S government with goldman sache and the rest of the wall street crooks who founded the crooked world bank and promoted consumerism in the U.S and other 1st world countries while fostering the low dollar in poorer countries to get the best deal on the products while bankrupting through enormous debt other countries and using the 3rd world for their own plot for wealth...all Nations!

Latinamerica has always been about crushing human dignity at all levels

[Frogstomp121]

Latin America is controlled and exploited by the U.S. under the Monroe Doctrine.

[PriaNorm]

latin America has a big problem its called Latin American leaders many if not all corrupt- most dont care about their people. reminds me of S.Florida

[annarboriter]

We have to hold bakesales for the needy but the banks are made of marble with a guard at every door and the vaults are stuffed with silver that the poor sweated for.

[Ermengarde11]

That is so wrong!! I pray for Latin Americans' relief from their suffering.

[MercuryShining]

Crap, I've seen bugs like that!

"have condemed her for the rest of her life"

uhh. hello al jazeera!!! that's really harsh, what about a ending message that gives hope not damns these people because of their situation.

gosh, that girl is really good looking, I bet she could easily come to america and find a modling contract.

[suroj]

They are poor and there is nothing to gain from them.

Who is going to help them?

The girl is screwed

[WKaliber1]

thats awful

how can you live like that?

[isegoria1]

They should box them up by the millions and mail them to the government agencies that will do nothing about the problem.

Bet the first time the fuckers open a box like that, they will want to do something about it.

[chelsithomas]
