  1. FUN FACT: The Reagan/Bush administration basically created the gangs. By creating the lawless militias (who used systematic rape and torture daily) in their CONTRA war while doing nothing for the wider economy or vital civil institutions in these countries -- they made the rise of the gangs inevitable when the US money dried up. When Congress stopped the program, Reagan/Bush turned to trafficking cocaine to fund it illegally until they got caught. If you are concerned about the migration issue, thank Republican foreign policy crimes and climate change denialism for it. They made that.
