oh boy, another smart answer from the guy with advance latin american studies.....
here I go (I am bored)
"People in Costa Rica do go hungry, are uneducated (can't read), and suffer greatly because of its government which is also a joke." what I am saying is, go to southern Mexico (I have) take a look and then let me know if its to the same degree over here (hint: its not), again, the % of people that can't read can NOT be compared to here....but you are clueless obviously so why bother arguing?
"your Tico face is no different then any other foreigner who buys property in Mexico, so that's just a dumb statement, an obvious racist shot." , you are right, my Tico face is not different, however (and unfortunately) you failed to understand my point so let me just explain it to you, Costa Rica (despite what everyone else may feel) treats foreigners better than Mexico.......that was my point
I don't care about what your friends think/say because I have family that lives there (and my immediate family lived there for over 20 years)
There is indeed a war here as well, I am not saying there isn't, however if you think you can compare the current magnitude of it......well, another point to show you don't get anything I said
I am not doing some sort of Doctoral Thesis so I am not comparing the culture, magnitude of its economy etc etc etc, just to clear that up in case you missed it
In summary, if you think the points I made are wrong, book yourself a 1 month vacation to the Northern border, then if you survive move to the Southern part and spend a couple of months watching people starving and then if you are still alive go and buy beach front property (you can't, and yeah of course I know that there are workarounds that........but it would pretty much reveal that you are not on an even legal ground over there....since you are not Mexican), there is a reason Mexico doesn't have much of illegal immigration
Finally its not Caliante but CaliEnte
one more thing, to say that we have the same 'social classes' here than in Mexico (between indian and mestizos) would pretty much tell anyone with a clue........that you don't have it
