The USA should quit trying to be friends with Spanish speaking Latin American countries. They will always hate our guts, seeing us as an extension of the UK, the hated, bitter rivals of the former big (but not great) Spanish empire. We should instead make trade deals with our trusted friends over in Asia and allow in Asians and Mahatma Gandhi Indians do the work now done by illegal Hispanics.
Venezuela is a “great nation”? In what way are they “great”? What has Venezuela ever done for the world? What has any Spanish speaking country given the world? The great Anglos gave the world electricity, cars, internet, airplanes, steam engine, train, modern medicine, high yield farming, telegraph, telephone, soccer, baseball, microwave oven, the chip, transistor, Coca-Cola, YouTube, penicillin...

Dear Mr. Freddy Worldwide

As a lowly educated mestizo campesino (who never was privileged to attend a traditional university like you) — I find your words have a double meaning. That I've learned to be very cautious of as it is the gringos we learn (as best described by the original inhabitants of the USA) speak with a forked tongue.

In any case — the “Hispanics” you worry about — have already nearly conquered your country. (Factually politically — demographics — and commercially.)

Many would also suggest you rethink your inspiration of replacing us with Asians as they will only subjugate and overtake your culture.

I humbly suggest your attitude may indeed be an unfortunate case of indigestion — which can easily be resolved with a healthy diet — augmented with avocados and fresh fruit imported from your friendly Latin countries.

(As far as ANYONE thinking about extending credit lines to my cousins in Argentina — I would suggest you simply are just as insane as our cousins are.)

¡Saludos de Chile!
