A new article on BBC World News has impulsed me to begin writing about my topic. Just when we were beginning to see freedom on the horizon, we are begin to feel the plague of Free Market Liberalism take toll on Latin America. Last year we got to see Latin American countries unite in a serious of summits without any United States influence or preconditions, but now the real test begins. The main reason for these summits was to find ways to relieve the Latin American peoples from a serious of economic crisis that have taken a toll not just in Latin America, but the world. We need to hope that the leaders of Latin America take good action and are able to work together to get through this. I have hope in them and their peoples.
