OPPOSITE LAND
dir. J. Michael Seyfert 61 minutes, subtitled. Mexico/Bolivia/USA - http://oppositeland.com/ Americans consider happiness more important to them than money, moral goodness and even going to heaven. Nevertheless their income has multiplied over the last 25 years while that of Latin Americans has remained the same. For over a century of invasions, interventions, destabilizations, violence and chicanery U.S. planners have counted on near monopolistic access to the resources of Latin America. That`s not true any longer. If there is a core reason behind the `pink tide` that has swept one left-leaning government after another into office in the region, it is the resentment against the forced economics of the `Washington Consensus` that has left 4 out of 5 people here living in poverty. |
