I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you haven't traveled around Latin America much and have never been to Chile, and seen the dramatic difference?
What's the dramatic difference? It's like USA, worst quality of life, inequality and a bunch of idiots whom for decades stole from workers and avoided taxes, and try to sell that "model" to the rest of the world.
thats fair, I haven't personally. However my wife is chilean and I am capable of reading and comprehending statistics so I'm satisfied.
Yes, it's so good that Chileans come to the universities in my country, Argentina, and many work here. And we're happy to help them, because Neoliberalism took their opportunities and their future.
