===Penny Lane===
Penny is an activist who wants to fight against neoliberal economics and assist rural villages in Central America, and is constantly heading down there to set up arts-related businesses in the countryside. In "[[The Daria Diaries]]", she has it really in for the World Bank and people who become "a lackey of the [Central American] urban elite".
Despite all that rah-rah politics and far-left rhetoric, she can't be bothered to speak Spanish when talking to the Costa Rican Finance Minister in "[[Lane Miserables]]" and demands his government compensates her for a crafts stall ''during a volcanic disaster''; and in "Diaries", she sneers at Nicaragua ("I hear they [Honduras] have a government") when things don't go her way there.
