It is > is only the 5% (the awkward squad) who find such regimes unliveable. I was in Brasil under the dictatorship in the later 70's, and found the country wonderfully alive and peaceful. True, start trouble and trouble would fight back. Even Chile was not as bad as some have made out. The accusations against Pinochet, while not totally unfounded, are certainly accentuated. Yes, people were killed during the coup de etat (fomented largely by the USA)....it was a war footing. Not nearly as sinister and violent as Argentina or PerοΏ½ under the dictatorships IMHO.
