My Personal Take on Aruba

I've made no secret of my sadness over the Natalee Holloway disappearance and anger over the shoddy investigation. But I don't think it's any state government's business to legislate a boycott.

I have more faith in the individual... that each individual is capable of determining how to distribute their expendable income.

For me, it's a difficult question, as I find Aruba to be rich in beauty and the goodness of the average hard working citizen, and poor in the way its class driven society protects (gives the benefit of the doubt or turns a blind eye toward) its arrogant youth, at the expense of its hard working, law abiding society.

A government that ignores, essentially condones illicit activity.
