I was wondering why so many people from Central America desperately want to move to Idiot America so I looked it up.
El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras consistently rank among the most violent countries in the world. El Salvador became the world’s most violent country not at war in 2015, when gang-related violence brought its homicide rate to 103 per hundred thousand. It has since fallen by one third. Nevertheless, all three countries have significantly higher homicide rates than neighboring Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama.
Extortion is also rampant. A 2015 investigation by Honduran newspaper La Prensa found that Salvadorans and Hondurans pay an estimated $390 million, $200 million, and $61 million, respectively, in annual extortion fees to organized crime groups. Extortionists primarily target public transportation operators, small businesses, and residents of poor neighborhoods, according to the report, and attacks on people who do not pay contribute to the violence.
The whole thing is at Council on Foreign Relations - Central America’s Violent Northern Triangle
What's the solution? I suggest if these people want to work we have plenty of jobs available, so let them get in. Of course this solution requires throwing out President Fucktard Trump.
