Latin America & Eastern Europe

 

What can Latin America learn from Eastern Europe?

Eastern Europe; when people think of Eastern Europe images of the Soviet Union's satellite nations after WW2, Communist Bloc, Iron Curtain etc. But what Eastern Europe comes to mind is industrialisation, compulsory education and vocational training for it's people. Regardless of what part of the political spectrum you are one thing for certain is Eastern Europe and Eastern Europeans are far more educated than Latin Americans and they have an advantage because they are educated or have skilled labor. 

Latin Americans need to study different models for development and see how they can implement it to it's people because compared to other regions of the world Latin America still lags behind second only to Sub-Saharan Africa. Eastern Europe is what's also called the Second World which is between First and Third World and there is a lot to be learned from Eastern Europe. Latin Americans can look at the system and see their strength and weaknesses and correct past mistakes and follow in areas where they have succeed Latin America can reach the same level of education, skills and development as Eastern Europe but it won't happen overnight it takes discipline, dedication and most of all ambition to become developed and industrialized. 

The failures of the American system and the cronyism of the Elitists in Latin America has created more income Inequality and no improvements in living standards, wages or education and it's hurting the people more than anything it's a trend that Latin America cannot continue because it will lead to instability and social unrest and that can lead to either Communism or Fascism. 

The only way Hispanics can be self-sufficient and self-reliant is through financial independence and through education and vocational training in order to get the skills they need to compete in the job market and to tap into the economic grid that's our way to having a better future for our people.
