Is Bolivia A Latin American Success Story?


Latin American Herald Tribune: Bolivia Has Highest Foreign Reserves in Latin America

WNU Editor: For a country that is run by an illiterate socialist .... he is doing a far better job at managing his government finances than all the "smart people" elsewhere in Latin America.

It appears that in Bolivia the people who run/manage the finances are a bit more responsible. It is true that the leaders of Venezuela and Argentina are political soul mates of Bolivian President Evo Morales .... but they are certainly not good economic managers.

On a personal note .... I am surprised. I never expected Morales to be successful to the economic level that he has.

WNU Editor,

Bolivia has always been wealthy as a country, it's problem always was that the wealth and power was inequally distrubuted, and historically, "looting" took precidence over investing.

Every country has something. If they do not have minerals or farmland, they have beaches or, sand, sun, location, or equatorial spin.
