There are plenty of lampposts available people and if you run out you can always double up.
If Venezuela still have some money in the United States is better cash it immediately. The U.S. government is preparing sanctions against the people of Venezuela.
May 21st, 2014 - 11:11 am - Link - Report abuse 0The same goes for Brasil. It is better to withdraw the 380 billion that are standing there.
Brasso! I thought you were shoulder to shoulder with these murdering bastards that are known as the “government” and now you want to remove 380Bn (of what, Reals I suppose) from them?

Nobody will be “Chavez” soon and good riddance too.
Ha, ha, ha.
2. And then what would you use to pay for imports? The ever depreciating rial that nobody wants?

Stupid Brazilian Marxist Monkeys will ruin the economy just like they did in Venezuela.

the name suggests the result every time,
unsure , confused , and makes no sense...lol
They are just sore because of the absence of toilet paper.
May 21st, 2014 - 01:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0The useful idiots of UNASUR are just there to legitimize Maduro's gov't.
May 21st, 2014 - 03:18 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Placing the opposition and the students in a same table with the dictator is already Maduro's day.
Bye losers.
@6 Funny! (and true).
May 21st, 2014 - 04:10 pm - Link - Report abuse 0@7 I agree. These talks are a farce and everyone, including the opposition, knows this.
The Chavistas have absolutely no intention of moving from their ideological trenches. They have no intention of coming to any form of arrangement or comprise with the opposition.
This is mere lip - service to the outside observers.
UNASUR is useless.
I have to say that I find this highly amusing. The “Bolivarian Revolution” supposedly promotes popular democracy, economic independence, equitable distribution of revenues and end to political corruption in Venezuela. Killing people is popular and democratic is it? Economic independence? For whom? Difficult to be “economically independent” if you're trying to keep up with 61.5% inflation. (Worryingly, the UK annual inflation rate is at 2.5%, compared to argieland's 28%). Equitable distribution of revenues? I've seen this done before. One for you, five for me. And the tax rate is 40%. Somewhere in there must be the answer to “political corruption”. And where's the “little bird” now that it's crapped all over the country? The “problem” for MADuro is that somebody else went “ding ding” on the bell. All he had to do was keep it on the road. Anyone got the loon's driving record? How many buses did he total?
May 21st, 2014 - 05:51 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Never mind, people of Venezuela, you elected him. So you knew what you were doing, right? How long before they can elect someone else? How long before it's acceptable to make his dreams come true and assassinate him? Probably be best to view it as putting him out of your misery. All those lovely fighter jets and so forth. And who wants your “country” now? Come to think of it, who wanted it then?

May 22nd, 2014 - 12:28 am - Link - Report abuse 0Your final statement is one of the most apt that I have read as a summary to the effects of Chavismo.
'Never mind, people of Venezuela, you elected him.

Individual people didn't elect Chavez/Maduro; it's the outcome of very large numbers making individual decisions. In a polarised democratic dictatorship type of society it's the majority (real or 'manufactured') that determine election outcomes.
If you make the country poorer more people depend on state hand-outs,
and more and more people must vote for those parties that give the most hand-outs. This cuts out the middle class - *those that make the money* - and simply keeps them captured as cash-cows, being excessively 'milked' to provide for the dependent poor and the rapacious rich.
Bolivarist-'socialism' is maintained in perpetuity - simply - by carefully manipulating the numbers of *dependent* poor [the rapacious rich are always with us :-( but in too small numbers to swing national elections].
This is a perfect example of a 'race to the bottom',
and Venezuela is taking much of Central and South America down the same road ... the road to perdition.
whaooo they are so passion with the thug just like they were with Paraguay!
