"It's sad that not one Hispanic country is doing well ---and it doesn't matter if they're white, brown, or black so it seems to have nothing to do with race but that culture. They can only succeed if they make it to an Anglo country. At some point you'd think they'd want to change some things in their homelands and make them a bit more liveable."
I've always wondered that same thing myself. What is it that keeps them down? Lack of education? Corrupt government taking all the $$$, or just everyone with a lick of sense just leaving?
Actually, Chile is small but overall it's doing quite well. In an area where economic instabilty is spreading (Argentina, Uraguay, Brazil) they are holding their own. I guess Milton Freidman was right huh?
