Elroy>I discuss things I want to discuss. If I find your question interesting I'll discuss it. If not, I probably wont. That's the way these discussion boards work. Go teach school if you want to dictate the subject of discussion to others.

Now Elroy, you don't want to discuss the questions I posed because they would make your previous comments look quite ridiculous. Therefore, I would understand why you would not want to further expose yourself publicly as to how really ignorant you are.

Elroy>We did all these things? Weren't they adults that control their own destiny and should take responsibility for their own actions, or lack of actions? You make it sound like the USA is the rancher and the people of Latin America just chickens and sheep that we raise and then eat. That kind of view is incredibly arrogant. I think the people of Latin America are equals entitled to do as they please, if they want to buddy up with the USA good for them. If they want to socialize their economy as in Venezuela they can do so, and they will reap the rewards or lack of rewards, but the decisions and the subsequent responsibility for what those decisions produce is theirs, not ours.

Again, Elroy, you are deceptive here. You know very well we tried to "fix" the election in Venezuela by supporting a coup there. Is your memory short? You talk about adults that control their own destiny? Did you forget that we trained and fostered terrorists in Latin America to have them fight by proxy against any cooperative efforts the poor farmers there tried to collectively organize and reclaim their own countries (especially the natural resources that we so coveted)!! How convenient Elroy, no questions for you, especially when it exposes how very little you know of and about what you speak.
