May 17th, 2011 - 02:17 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The worst is that you not only have affected your countryman, even affceted the all LATAM on the last century (my country was one of the most affected in a bad way, of course) and that now, some clever LATAM leaders as Huguito, Rafaelito, Evito.... and Cristinita (in some way) have been following your previous steps to sink their own countries into a similar oppresion and dictatorship...
Well done to all of them, specially to those that are now doing the firts steps that others must undo in 50 years more in those countries...
R.I.P. for them....
The world is living in the XXI century, but Cuba is not, so how in the world this country can become a leader, at least of itself?

Is this the kind of thinking , matipulation and government control that Cuba wants to inyect to Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezuela?
Central and South-American countries are the poor countries, for sure not only in the American continent, but also its economic and industralization functions are similarities as many countries of Africa and Asia.
I have looked into the number of positive innovations and contributions to the world by all those nations and I found none of them, being the core trade why they are importing countries rather than exporting mainly in the areas of space industry, manufacturing, health investigation and research and so on and so on.
Now, it is clear why they are excellent countries to export to the EU and to the USA immigrates. Their public officers do not care about its own citizen, because corruption and individual power is the mold to domain the population at their taste.
I am so sorry for the Cubans, because there is no light in their life's tunel.
#2: Surely there must be some positive innovations and contributions to the worlds fund of knowledge that have come out of Cuba, Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezuela.
May 17th, 2011 - 10:45 pm - Link - Report abuse 0It is *extremely* unlikely that there have been none!
By the same token, have there been volumes of ground-breaking indigenous development (positive innovations and contributions to the worlds fund of knowledge) from eg. Brasil, Argentina, Chile, etc.?
I know South Americans have returned from first world research teams to set up labs back home, but what has been initiated ab initio in S.A. and has been world changing / paradigm shifting?
