Costa Rica is a 1st world social democracy which has bestowed benefits to people and called them rights. even with no corruption and political class looting which is happening in every social democracy it still will not pencil. it is really no different than giving too much to your kids. same effect.

Never ever seems to lead for the benefit of the country other than their own pockets. Shame I would hope PAC and Solis would change that or am I just dreaming, again?

My question is, will the CR government spend several million dollars in a “study” to discover why major enterprises are bailing out of the land of bilk and money.

How come you aren’t ranting and raving about those evil Mexicans like you do to the Americans when their companies leave Costa Rica? I’m surprised at you..so restrained.

Seriously, I hope things get better soon for Costa Rica. There are a lot of people who are going to be hurting because of this.

The cascading effect. If the common Costarricense doesn’t insist on changes here it going to get a lot worse. I feel for those who now have no job no prospects ,, bleak!
