Got interrupted and could not edit my post ... Last paragraph is ..
Anyway most folks here lived through a period of very rapid peso devaluation against the dollar setting in motion an extreme cycle of inflation - similar thing with a stagnant economy. A change in government and some promised rapid fiscal reforms and a lot of help from the IMF changed things.
This time I think things are even more shaky .. Its like the financial functioning of the world is made up of jello. I don't think any leader or wannabe leader has answers for the 'perfect storm' that the DR is facing.
