No one is arguing that -- if you disagree, please point to a single post in this entire thread in which anyone makes that argument. We are arguing that an economic bloom (one that many think didn't start until 20 years later, but hey) doesn't justify installing a military dictatorship and supporting the torture and murder of many thousands.
You apparently would rather see your neighbor tortured than your wallet lightened. It's a values thing, I guess.
But go ahead and trash liberals some more -- it obviously gives you a big ole hard-on, and allows you to dismiss what Chile itself has said about Pinochet's dictatorship.
To answer your earlier question to me, "Bolivia." Mad props to Ty. My first thought was "Brazil" but then I realized this was the wrong board.
To answer my earlier questions to you, "China" and "China". Got it.
