You know, i'm reading all this "bad man" shit about brother Chavez. I'll bet 99% of all you haters listen to mainstream media -only. The day that you realize they're feeding you bullshit is the day you wake the fuck up. Might I suggest alternative methods of acquiring your information. By the looks of everything I've seen, his people loved him. The only ones that celebrated his death were the affluent in the country. Let's hope Maduro holds his ground and doesn't allow any Western influence to ruin his country.

khaddafi actually had printing presses set up to make an african currency if he could get the allegiance of a load of countries that had powerful us backed militaries which was never going to happen, thought he could play the bankers a bit to get a tiny foothold outside of libya and got what they had planned,, the country was stable and living standards were some of the highest on the african continent,, now its burned out wreck undergoing an eventual process of pseudo islamo fascism to create strife specifically for the good people in their society and make the so called political system they will replace "him" with seem vaguely credible.. though i hope it fails and the people rise up and murder each and every fake western backed snake..

people throw the word dictator around to excuse their blood lust as if some how the presidents of the eu/uk/usa aren't just puppets of the worlds most insidious power structure(like i said institutionalisation).. that coincidentally also want people like chavez, ahmedinejad, assad and a few others dead whilst the media in the countries names being soiled by "foreign intervention" (or murdering people for no good reason) also ramps up rhetoric against them to fuel the apathy about a future they want to manifest into the world amongst their indebted slaves..

the guns are pointless, stop those in "power" from turning people against you first or you will just have a good ol' shoot up with american bodies everywhere.. which is the plan btw..

they want people to panic buy guns, get one in every child's hand as well so they can blow their heads off as well..

after the smoke clears the state will microchip every single one of you left and take away the freedom of movement and access to information unless you play ball and take your medication every morning in front of a webcam..

people look around and think it's all gone to shit now lol,, the changes are just getting started and this thing is going somewhere, depending on your position it isn't going to be pretty..

My friend lives in the Caribbean on Corn Island Nicaragua. They have a channel on the television there called The Chaves station. 24 hours a day, every day, Chaves speaks. (Maybe Spoke is a better term now). In Nicaragua they can at least change the channel. Not sure about his homeland.

you are only half right, as only 50% of people in Venezuela, regardless of economical status, actually like Chavez.

like I said, Venezuela is completely divided, all thanks to Chavez btw.

half of the economically poor, do not like him at all, half of the so-called middle-class do not like him at all, and half of the rich do not like him at all.

half of rich people love him since through him they have became very wealthy, thanks to corruption. just like the old corrupt governments before Chavez got rich; just that now it is some other corrupt assholes' turn.

but if you do not want to take my word for it (born and raised in Venezuela), and if you do not want to believe in any news' source, all you gotta do is go travel there and see with your own eyes the reality.

why don't you move to Venezuela to enjoy the good you see in it? what's stopping you to be a part of the so-called bolivarian revolution?

r u afraid that the information about Venezuela being one of the most dangerous places in the world to be true afterall?

only an idiot would tell you that there was no corruption or poverty before Chavez; however, there was tons less crime, much less poverty, and virtually no class-wars.

this whole "lets kill oligarchs" demagogy was 100% thanks to Chavez, and yet again, only an idiot would say otherwise.

Venezuela was always a poor country until the discovery of petroleum.

that's when the slums in Caracas and other big cities were formed; all the people from the country-side working in agriculture and with animals, left their lands to head to the big cities to chase after the petroleum dream.

having left their farms and having failed in getting instantly rich through some petroleum pipe-dream, were left with nothing; say hello to modern day poverty.

history 101.

Good Point Bomb.

Not so much of a political divide as it is the result of an economic divide.
We had the same economic tragedy in the US as a result of massive immigration from overseas and from the rural south into the large industrial cities in the north after our civil war and beyond.

A large population influx without a corresponding growth in jobs left many destitute and without hope of improvement and an increase of crime and violence with the attendant rise of radical political ideas to force a political solution to what was essentially a demographics problem.

We're going to see this play out again as we now have too many idle hands and hungry bellies from debt and capital destruction that has crushed production to all time lows.

We're now all Soviet Russia in 1988.

Globalists, Banksters and their Government enablers...Thank you very much.

hello mrcreosote,

I'd say it is also a political divide though; since the half that likes Chavez are extreme left wingers, for lack of a better term.

this means they think the government should control everything and should provide for everyone, and everyone should get equal benefits from such all controlling, all knowing, benevolent and revolutionary government.

while the other half thinks that government control should be minimal, and that each individual is different and unique, and should be able to make a livelihood according to his/her input to society.

as of now, in Venezuela, there's no such thing as free enterprise. for example, I worked for many years at the only professional recording studio in my city, the owner had to close down and actually move out of the country before the 'chavistas' came to expropriate his business. so he sold all his gear at a cheap price and got out. there's tons of stories of the sort.

there were this guys I know that were growing strawberries, and they would harvest them, clean them, vacuum seal them, freeze them, sold some locally and the rest was for export. eventually, the 'chavistas' came, took their land and equipment, and it was bye bye...

this happened to virtually everyone who had a business of his/her own and is not a part of the inner-gang of 'chavistas', and this also happened to people that actually voted for Chavez but were not part of their inner-gang.

all such actions by the government were then propagandized as Chavez's battle against the "evil" Oligarchy.

as for now, that Chavez is out of the picture, things will get crazy, as the struggle for power within the inner-gang has started, and this will hurt the most the have-nots, and they will loose a lot of support, but not before they finish wrecking the whole country and robbing it blind.

50 Truths about Hugo Chavez and the Bolivarian Revolution



that should be called: 50 tons of b.s :huggg:

do not have time to go over each of those 50 lies, but lets try with a few:

14. operacion milagro: sorry buddy, if you are not a member of the psuv (partido socialista unido de venezuela), you do not get any help.

5. UNESCO said no more illiteracy in Venezuela? they did not count Chavez himself with all his mathematical acrobatics: 7 x 8 = 52

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORnZHWE1wrs

there's tons more like that, from all the chavistas, including the president of the central bank of Venezuela, Mr. Merentes, 7 x 7 = 36

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFiCMFoQdfY

:laughing:

lets not even get started on all the grammatical horror contained in venezuelafail.com and soloenvenezuela.com :huggg:

50. that's hilarious, specially when Chavez sent 10 battalions and the air force to the Colombian boarder in response after Raul Reyes (terrorist / drug cartel) was killed by the Colombian government. Chavez also closed the embassy in Colombia as a response.

9. they did in fact opened up a bunch of free clinics with nice new equipment; however, it was all operated by illiterate "medics" that graduated in less than 12 months in one of the pirate medicine schools of the government. :tiphat: most of the equipment has been stolen and sold on the black market to other countries anyway.

etc... etc... etc...

Chaves went to Cuba for his medical problems. The poor citizens of Venezuela didn't have that option.

Cuba actually has some of the best medicine in the world. Not everyone knows that.
