I guess it takes a "real man", a "superior person" cajones to try and insult and belittle a generally non-white, non-rich country, congratulations.
Once again, you're missing the point of my observations entirely.
The Dominican People had no idea what poverty was until the Spanish came to "help" them.
They knew nothing about hunger and didn't want for anything they couldn't reach and pluck off a tree or scoop out of the river or the sea.
All this "aid" has come with a horrible price and they're sinking deeper into the quicksand of western debt with every stroke of the pen. Life is not improving for the vast majority of Dominicans.
I've been alive almost 60 years and I never saw anyone in the USA shower buck neked in view of the world under a bucket of rain water. How long is progress supposed to take? After all we've (USA) been butting into the affairs of the Republica for about a century now and we don't really appear to have made things much better there.
I have no idea what your "real man and superior person" references are drawn from, I just know that your glossing past the realities of the D.R. in favor of selling some vision of what it "could" or "should" be like is disingenuous at best and I feel compelled to refute it. Because it's bullshit... and yes, I would be honored to continue the discussion in person, ask anybody on this board who knows me. I'm the same Guy all the time and everywhere I go, that's six continents and counting.
