An article that I just read is really pretty disturbing.  It speaks of the tremendous droughts in the river areas of Bolivia.  It's bad enough because it is just a natural disaster situation, but the fact that there was also mismanagement involved is particularly troubling.  The government failed to properly care for the canals.  The article also speaks of selling off many of its wild animals.  This might become a very serious problem given the fact that some of the animals are endangered species such as the wild dog.  They are also looking at selling off elephants, lions and pythons.  Even if they do this, how much of the money will ever actually reach its citizens to help them?
