What can we do as US citizens to make life better in Latin American countries better?
Answer:
Great question, As citizens there is nothing much that we can do but vote and hope our goverment does something about, but I think in order to help Latin America there are 3 importat factors to deal with and they are:
1)CORRUPTION
2)EDUCATION
3)POVERTY
By eliminating this factors I think Latin America has a Great potential to enjoy a great economy and that none of its citizens have ever to migrate in huge amounts.
Gave them all our companies and jobs what else do they need?
it's impossible unless we take over thier countries, they don't use birth control and they can't run a country
How about supporting the good guys instead of the corrupt ones?
abolishing NAFTA would be a good start. also, lifting the sanctions on cuba would probably be a good idea.
there will never be enough that can be done to stop people from immigrating...
people immigrate for different reasons. you can say create more jobs, but companies open and close downtdaily,
others move for better medical care, i guess build more medical schools, better training.
others for limited food, send more money to grow more produce,
the demands are endless.....
WHY SHOULD WE BE THE ONES TO DO IT. CAN'T THEY TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN PROBLEMS. WHY ARE WE THE HELPERS OF THE WORLD. YEAH WOULD YOU SUGGEST SETTING UP WELFARE SO THAT THEY DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE ANYTHING IN THEIR COUNTRY. PLEASE IT'S TIME THEY CAUGHT UP WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD AND IT'S TIME FOR THEM TO KICK OUT ALL THE CORRUPT LEADERS THAT ARE LINING THEIR POCKETS AT THE EXPENSE OF THE CITIZENS.
Its really not up to us. That is why they have their own governments. If it is that bad over there why not model their governments after ours. They said that Mexico was supposed to be coming up with some kind of program to make more jobs for Mexicans. They need to care about their country before they can expect from others. Its almost like a perfectly capable homeless person. All he wants to do is beg for change, so he can go buy beer or crack. All he has to do is get up and get a job and do for himself.
Build the Wall, deport them all when found, and Jail employers of Illegal Alien Invaders
DO all these things and force the Gov of the Illegal Alien Invaders
to take care of their own people
and the people to grow spines and demand better for their selves
I think they need to step up. Just as we built this great country, they must do the same. The land on our side of the border is no different than on their side. Maybe we should all pick a country and move in for 5 years. Presto! Nice place! Then we all can move back. I somehow doubt they would keep it looking that way. :(
EVeryone screams about outsourcing. I'd rather have the current criminal illegals kept at home by buying produce etc. that has been produced in say Mexico, than to have to deal with the negative complexity and disruption/crime caused by some of the visiting element here.
It is probubly too complex an issue to handle for our somewhat dweeby legislators and of course those that aren't dweebs are crooks and are in the pockets of the CEO sorts that are the main people responsible for the influx of illegals.
America had better wake up to these and other problems or America isn't going to be here today or tommorrow as it was in yesteryear. What will change is the high life for many or all of us, there will be less and less American Dreamism and by the looks of it, if you aren't starved off, educated/taxed down, you may very well end up terminated in your own bed by a inadvertent stray shot from the local gang bangers or mugged to death as you shop for all those low priced goods the illegals supposedly bring to us.
Stop using drugs, stop giving foriegn aid that just winds up it corrupt officials and the hiearchy of the upper class and never filters down to the working class.
Put land mines and razor wire along the Mexican border to keep the USA from being a refuge and another s**t hole that it is already becoming. American politicians envy the hiearchy of Latin America
First bump off all the cartels and let Mexico take back their gov't, and run it like they should without any infulence from the cartels. That would be a great first start, and everything should start to fall into place??????
Encourage them to stay there and do the work needed to make it better.
I agree with Lonewolf. You have to get rid of the Cartels first so that the government and its people can start making there country right. You can not clean up a country were the drug cartels run it all. Either you join in with them or shut your mouth. If you open your mouth then you will disappear.
Other than Mexico, arm them so they can overthrow Chavez and other corrupt leaders.
In Mexico, take away the guns from corrupt law enforcement personnel. Wait a sec.... they did that... didn't they?
Why should we spend money for there to be a better life in "Latin American countries?" Isn't that the responsibility of those countries and their citizens? We have enough to worry about because to the illegal alien criminals here! Even if we made life wonderful there, these criminals would still come here.
We can't take care of the whole world.
The entire country needs to be reformed to how it is set up now, it is not working. Only a certain section benefits from how Mexico is set up currently
Most fail to realize that most immigrants coming in are young single males with "limited" skills (meaning no schooling and restricted to menial labor) with less to lose if they leave their families. What citizens can do (so many stray from the actual question here to state their own opinions) is vote/petition governmental leaders to bring in immigrants who can help change the future for the better, America or otherwise. Exchange students can come here for schooling (public schools in central/south america suck) through scholarships and private funding, giving back their country gifted minds and usable talents. If a citizen owns a business, he/she can help bring in an immigrant through temporary or seasonal work making money here and also being allowed to bring some back to their country.
Only a few ideas, i dont want to write a 500 page paper here. I know there are plenty of issues associated with immigration, but what good is complaining when action is what is needed for change? and has anyone forgotten the same heat and debate happened in the mid to late 1800s because of Irish immigrants? language is not an important issue. FACTS show that as generations go by, the children of immigrants speak less and less of the "old" tongue. How many people with german immigrant grandparents actually speak german at home or have problems with english?
I would say be supportive, but the USA should not have to build and run nations for them, otherwise they may as well be another state. Most of the time all that happens its biting the hand that feeds them anyway.
How many who have benefited so much from the USA speak badly about it.
i say we dig a huge moat on the border and fill it with hungry sharks with submerged mines everywhere...after that we can tell Bush to electrify the fence thats already there
kick back and relax we are giving them our country on a silver platter
Before you go spouting off about the "poor" Mexicans, why don't you go take a look at the many countries in Africa that suffer from hunger, disease and persecution, and tell me what we should be doing for a people that are really suffering!
