180 South Trailer - A new movie from Woodshed Films

[Tsgarlin]

CONEXIONLEGAL is correct. Chile has done quite well economically. And it's primarily because -- gasp! -- they adopted a market-driven economy rather than listen to everyone else, including Americans, and adopt a command/socialist economy. The best thing Pinochet ever did was listen to Milton Friedman and the "Chicago Boys" and usher in market reforms during the 1970s. Viva Chile!

[CONEXIONLEGAL]

you talk about poor country? ,did you know the poverty rate in Chile is almost the same or even lower than America? , did you know that currently America has a higher unemployment rate than Chile?, did you know that their Economy was the one that better managed and less affected by the recession. this docu. is not about a poor country its about people in towns that would never give up their land, natural resources and rich traditions and would never replace that for wealth and development.

I would like to see how Americans would react to a Russian Billionaire buying Yosemite or Yellowstone. The environment is important but if I was from Argentina I would be pissed.

[gbeane79]

@los1950 why? they are going to give it back to the people of Argentina as a park. They really had no concept of national parks before.

[los1950]

@gbeane79 yes, their intentions are honorable, but we have a long history in latin america of foreigners, mainly from the U.S. and Europe, coming to our countries and predicating that they know what is better for us, that they can show us what is the right path. In many cases, this was not done with good intentions but to exploit our resources or influence our political and social development. So, you must understand that for many people in Argentina there is suspicion and apprehension.

[los1950]

@gbeane79 Many countries in Latin America have national park systems, inlcuding Argentina. Intentions and the environment aside, you have to understand that in a country where millions dont even have a decent place to live, having a foreigner buy millions of acres of land is a point of contention. People dont care about green valleys, landscapes and waterfalls when they dont have food to eat.

[iluvbigsky]

@los1950-- this is how all goes awry when the point is missed so completely, smashing the long distance future for short term gain, without nature we are nothing. I would also point out destroying these natural landscapes for the corporate gain of a few does nothing to help the poor people, do they benefit because they can cling to the outskirts of a city that provides them intermittent electricity while they go hungry and cant find jobs, come on.

[los1950]

@gbeane79 The U.S. is a developed country who has gone through prior stages of development where the environment was decimated for economic advancement. Now people in the U.S. expect poor countries to protect their environment just as they "Claim" to do in the U.S. !! The U.S., to this day, is the country that pollutes the most in the world. It is not right to force developing countries to forgo economic development in response to environmentalists in the developed world. Focus on your country.
