Hey, this is Bananamerica we're talking about -- a country hooked on annual inflows of 350 billion euros of overseas capital, which can't even elect its most powerful leader by popular vote, let alone provide enough electricity for its Cali-zone chip fabs or value its firms on the basis of, well, you know, profits and revenues. Every country gets the political opposition it deserves.
