... what has changed for the better for those people? Nada. Thugs still kidnap children to jump them into gangs, or worse for young girls, or they hold them for ransom. The streets are regularly littered with bodies, many mutilated beyond recognition.

So, yeah. 40 years and not a goddamned thing has changed. That's a big part of why the southern border is nearly over run. And you can bet your grannie's knickers that Putin has his blood-soaked pinkies in there as well. He's overjoyed to contribute to the GOP's howl-a-thon to blame Biden for anything and everything. And malignant filth like Abbott stir the cauldron at every possible opportunity.
