No one said that the change to the dollar solved all the problems for a country with great poverty and much difficulty. It has helped the situation overall. That doesn't mean that people aren't fighting to increase their rights, and it doesn't mean that they aren't going to stand for incompetent leadership overall, and for extreme dishonesty and nepotism, which is what led to the end of the last two Presidents more than anything.

You can't simply tie the dollarization to the coups and say that it's the fault of the dollar. And you certainly can't say, as you have, that the dollar has hurt the economy, which was clearly being far more hurt by staying with Sucre.
