There are improvements in some areas - but those improvements are happening at a slower rate than in neighboring countries were hundreds of millions of dollars aren't being spent on one man's ego.

And in other areas (like unemployment, for instance), things remain unchanged.

In still other areas (like child immunizations), things are worse now that they were before Hugo came to power.

Ask yourself this, Andrew - what could that billion dollars Hugo wasted trying to buy a seat on the security council have done for the people of his country?
