After seeing your comments, I looked up Port Limon for an abbreviated Reader's Digest view, and saw that that town had been firmly under control over a hundred years ago by U.S. business interests. They were goners already, taken down and put in the back pocket of outsiders with no interests whatsoever in the well-being of the people living and working there already since forever.
United Fruit (Chiquita) ate everything in its way and killed everyone who objected.
Seeing their positioning in Central America tells you instantly they didn't stand a chance against United Fruit (Chiquita) , ever. Totally surrounded by successful vampirism from U.Fruit.
"Haaaaaands across the waaaaturrrrrrrr"
Looking back at what you observed and learned during that time would be amazing. If only more US Americans had the slightest idea of what on earth has been happening there since the 1800's!
It's going to be a long fight before people can get free again..
Thank you, sir.
