That's right. What should we care if demand from Latin America collapses?

Indeed, why should we? You make a good point, doug. Kudos. Similarly, why should we care if demand from China collapses, or Russia? The US Taxpayer can't be expected to bear the burden of financial recklessness on the part of big businesses in those countries.

The large companies in these third-world developing nations made huge and risky gambles: the spoils of which you can be sure would not have been shared with the US taxpayer. But when the gambles don't pay off, they know who they can call: Bill Clinton, who is only too happy to provide billions of taxpayer dollars to paint himself as a hero with.
