Juan Carlos Dávila reports from Puerto Rico as the island grapples with a severe water crisis. A record-breaking drought has led to severe shortages and a system of water rationing that residents say could have been prevented by better infrastructure maintenance. Climate scientists have warned for years that changing weather conditions in the Caribbean are likely to exacerbate existing infrastructure failings, but rather than address the root cause of the water shortage, explains Dávila, a pattern of government inaction and failed public services is used to justify increasing privatization.

Es el socialismo una cuestión nacional ?
That is the conception that most left-winger do not understand that imperialism ( o expansionism ) is not one country, it is the whole capitalist system, or any capitalist country small or large is expansionist or imperialist and that anti imperialism is not anti capitalism. They also think that expansionist is only armed conflict, the struggle for markets within the capitalist is war too. The USA is a large producer and exporter of oil and the price of that commodity went up, it is not price, it is the world market system that controls price

It might create a big emigration of human beings. Will walls and borders be able to stop that large emigration? They expect an emigration of millions, or probably billions, of human beings.
