attached link is a 100% valid and accurate summary of the issue, but it seems to have a 'ring' of truth and logic. Costa Rica and Panama aren't problem areas, so just maybe, with a little intelligence and creativity, we could play a part in stabilizing the 'Northern Triangle' of the CA-4 and settle this southern border problem...would really be nice if we could get both of our parties to come together on fixing the "root cause"...
BTW, I've just read a report that our expenses in Afghanistan and Iraq are way higher (in 2019 dollars) than what the Marshall Plan cost, so if we cut a little here and there, we might find the funds for Central America without maxing out our credit card.
