Getting a distinct "Pinochet at least made the ports run on time" vibe here

Turns out making your country a neoliberal resource farm for industrialized nations doesn't turn out so well?

Typo posted:But this discussion isn't even about the legacy of Pinochet, however terrible it was. There are plenty of threads in D&D where we talk about how terrible he was. when you have a neo liberal pining for a carrier group to park itself off the coast and it's chile we're talking about the association flows naturally, not to mention the poster in question has done the defending pinochet thing in the past. As far as the policies go what is there to really discuss? A business owner suggesting that the rights of labor should be trampled on? Surely you jest! Are we supposed to take a poster who doesn't believe in the marginal propensity to consume seriously?

More generally I have a question that I think pertains to Latin/South America as whole. How many years or iterations of peaceful political power handovers are required for the civil services in a nation to achieve a sort of independence from patronage systems that breed corruption? The first real efforts did not occur in the United States until the late 19th century and tammany hall and the like were around until the 30s. Knocking over governments and rebuilding them every 20 or 30 years has to wreck havoc with that process and I think for that reason on its own the monroe doctrine poo poo that we're still pursuing has been so detrimental to the development of south america as a whole.
