  1. "In their culture its not wrong to commit a crime, only embarrassing to get caught." - this is hardly a uniquely Latin American trait. You'll find people saying the same all around the world.

  2. "You need smart people to make a rich nation." - the idea that 'smart people' will automatically support legislation that hurts them is, ironically, stupid. You think being well educated somehow magically makes you less sensitive to loss or more socially minded? How smart are the people in Wall St? There you can find the smartest people on Earth, completely dedicated to their own benefit and often also quite short-term oriented (cashing out before shit hits the fan). People don't want to pay more for food - that's a sentiment both ostensibly 'dumb' and smart people will react to.
