Their common problem is the poor education programme they all have. Poor education and poor health services make the population weak and illiterate, therefore the countries don't have much chance of becoming better. |

police corruption. I don't think it is being dealt with yet. |

Drug cartels. They have responded by being weak in the face of evil and appeasing it by looking the other way and accepting bribes in government. It is also masked with hatred for America rhetoric which is not challenged. |

The basic problem is feudal serfdom. Having been colonized by Spain, the Latin countries never made the leap to representative democracy and are still bogged down in land barons of one sort or another.
Their solution is to move to USA and I must tell you, it's messing things up here. Having the richest and (all things considered) freest country in the world right next door to an unlimited source of poor, illiterate peasants (cheap labor) fleeing a corrupt feudal system and displacing American culture isn't working out very well.
I would suggest sealing the border with Mexico just long enough for the pressure to build up enough to have the revolution it so desperately needs.
Then, when Mexico is free, we can talk as equals. Until then, I am not aware of any nation which became bilingual and multicultural and did not end up in civil war. Or worse, a race war. It may get ugly. |
