Socialism works.
I love going to visit the South of Argentina. BA is sketchy and I avoid at all costs. Next door in Chile things are going quite well.
One country embraced capitalism and private enterprise. The other embraced socialism and strong command and control government. Guess which country did which.

Chile has a deal with China to mine large areas.....and several SA countries are following suite...it pays to watch their deals with China, as they move closer and closer to them economically. That communism is going to be a factor in a couple of years for Chile, Ecuador, and other SA countries. Socialism is already the government in Uraguay.
China needs those natural resources but once their tenacles are in a country it will be impossible to remove them.
