They have some improvements over 19th century peasants. And what little they do have, they owe to free market capitalism
Actually, Bolivia has never actually seen a free market, merely a distorted version of capitalist cronyism. Before the commie took over, they were hardly the shiny face of a free market at work. The commie basically took a bad system and made it worse.

No, but the rest of the world benefits from the functioning economy in America and other places. After the Reagan/Thatcher revolution of the 80s, the per capita consumption of meat in the 3rd world went up by about 5x.

(Leftys who zone in on Palin miss the point. America's not about single figures. That's for NK/Cuba.)
