As even the Chilean Left has finally admitted.
Voters in Latin America often vote for Socialists, but every country is so badly dominated by the alliance of the liberal-left with Big Governmentand Big Business that ordinary citizens become so cynical, they don't participate in the democratic process.
However, Honduras is about to follow China's Free Enterprise Zones that brought not only prosperity, but millions of citizens who moved into them.
Success is sometimes emulated.
Most often not, which is why most of Latin America is poverty stricken.
Let's not sugar coat this - Allende was shot, killed dead, he did not step aside and those who shot him did just what I said - they took leadership by force - Pinochet got that spot because the elected leader was gunned down. What I said was 100% accurate. The people elected a socialist leader as they did again and again. The people are voting for what they want and your corporate masters say otherwise. Then the mercs are sent out to whip the bad cows back into line.
