#67: Political Upheaval in Latin America w/ Ricardo Vargas

In May Colombia erupted in protest, in June Peru elected a self-avowed Marxist as president, and in July, Cuba erupted in protests against the communist regime. Much of Latin America is in a state of serious political unrest. Most already know the outcome of Venezuela's socialist revolution. Extreme poverty, destruction of infrastructure, a health care system in complete shambles, unemployment at extreme levels, and crime & violence so shocking it would make the most violent American city look like a peaceful utopia.  This podcast discusses the current state of affairs in Colombia specifically, and in general Latin America. I talk with Ricardo Vargas who lives in Bogota', Colombia. He is a lawyer who has practiced in many economic sectors over his career and is well-versed in the history of socialist encroachment in the region, and the current situation in Latin America. It would be wise for all Americans to pay attention to our neighbors to the South. As China and Russia are paying attention. Over the past twenty years, socialist and communist leaders have made major inroads in South America while the United States has sat idly by and watched. This is a dangerous strategy we should all be aware of. #podcast #latinamerica #riots #cuba #colombia #venezuelaSend us Fan MailFollow the Intellectual Freedom Podcast on Social Media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61581532813468 X : https://x.com/Int_Freedom_podLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/intellectual-freedom-podcast
