NOW we're engaged in thoughtful dialogue!
Look, you know my position - cutting off aid to these countries will do nothing to address the conditions that force whole families to escape intolerable violence. It is a play to Trump's white nativist base, notwithstanding that it will only spur more asylum seekers toward the border.
So explain to me why cutting off aid to the Honduran government and police will decrease the flow of asylum seekers. If there's logic to your position, kindly explain it.

The virtues that permit cultures/societies to survive then thrive; are most
prominently, self-discipline, responsibility, courage, perseverance and honor.
These were the legacy of Greece that infused Europe for some 3000 years.
North America also embraced these while South America rejected them;
refusing to let go of their tribal backwardness. So be it!
All make choices in life which determine their culture created and values embraced.
All the pious platitudes, sanctimonious malarkey, excuse mongering and sob stories
are empty blather which change nothing. Further, we owe South America nothing.
NOTHING!!!
