Looks like the system is starting to break down in Venezuela

mainstream typical USA / anti Chaves bullshit

haha "the Miam Hearld" !!??

unreal!

Fuck Corporate Media!

Just like Cuba, the CIA has been busy as another major oil refinery is sabotaged, killing many. Keep the bloody CIA the hell out of Venezuela.

Keep the CIA/FBI/NSA etc, out of Portland and it's not entitlements that did it. Without entitlements you have the kind of environment that brought Chavez to power in the first place. And given that his rise to power was mostly non-violent that was not a bad thing. When you have large groups of poor, hungry, starving people with nothing to lose, you can either feed them or eventually face revolt. Chavez was smart enough to use that to his advantage. If you say ended what little entitlements we have in this country people would be killing each-other or robbing what they needed to survive unless a leader like Chavez comes along to focus the people's anger into something constructive. Or an even better solution would be a paradigm shift away from a winner take all capitalist system of distributing goods and services.
