Chile is proud

All of the trapped miners in Chile are about to be rescued. The engineers have gotten 29 out already. Chile should rightly be proud of this terrific accomplishment. Even the President of the country is present at the rescue site. Of course, they had technical assistance from many different countries but we should keep this in mind: they were not too proud to ask for help. The rest of the world should learn from this. Chile, as I have said before, pulled itself out of a cycle of poverty in less than twenty years. We need to ask them how they did it.
