Again, thank you all for your replies, comments and insults, at the end of the day, this is a forum about Belize and I commend Marty for making it all possible. I have merely stated my own opinions, which are based on personal experiences and many hours of research.
Just out of curiousity, are there any Belizean locals who partake in discussions on this board, or is it just clicky white expats, and repeat visitors who speak on behalf of Belize?
"BelizeLaw" I was most impressed with your own blog, nice to know that some people are capable of analysing others comments, and then questioning exactly what has been said and why.
"Winston1984" was a reference to George Orwell's novel "1984". For those who have not read this (and I suspect that is most on this board) it is a truly amazing read, a book which could have been written yesterday, when one looks at the state of the world in which we all live in today.
It is very sad indeed that so many choose to see the world through "rose tinted glasses". If people would really start to look around, look at what is happening on this planet, stop exploiting the poorer nations of this world, and most importantly, stop thinking only about ones' self, then things would start to get better.
I can only begin to imagine what it must feel like to be a poor Belizian, who has to watch foreigners arrive in their country, spending more cash in a week, than some of them get in months. While the owner of Ramones flies in from the US on his own plane whilst paying a pittance to his local work force.
I will continue my own personal journey in search of Utopia, which is certainly not Belize, Canada, GREAT Britain or the USA.
