Chile - a country recovering from authoritarian rule - is trying to implement centralized authoritarian rule. Go figure! Political ideology is a strange thing. It's not that authoritarian rule is considered out-of-hand bad by the current powers, rather it is right-wing authoritarian rule that is bad. Chile has seen an 18 year period of prosperity that is set to end at the hand of the central planners, leftist guerrillas, and the resulting capital flight. This article, by a Princeton Professor lays out the curious turn of events.
It seems the government is using the government pressure enforced by leftist gun men to economically and religiously cleanse the country. No human rights violation here...Amnesty? A.N.S.W.E.R.? Human Rights Watch? anyone? But then again, left wing upheaval has great rhetoric to go along with it. Just listen to how they love 'the poor' 'the oppressed' 'minorities' 'exploited workers' whilst they institute systems that inflict crushing poverty, oppress all political decent, create ghettos, and force workers into centrally planned jobs.
