    Terence Hill : I'm sorry I don't have any proof of the above, other than what the analysts have predicted and the non-existence of any denial by the Government.

    Ah! the Central Bank: the place where dreams are made!

    Ha, ha, they need to be in their dreams if these figures are to be believed.

    The alleged fortune of María Gabriela Chávez, daughter of the late Hugo Chávez, has recently stirred up controversy in Venezuela. Media reports suggest that Chávez’s daughter has US$4.2 billion stored in bank accounts in the United States and Andorra, which might make her the wealthiest person in Venezuela.

    Critics have pointed to a supposed inconsistency: how can one support the so-called Bolivarian Revolution while enjoying such enormous riches? However, the premise of this critique is flawed, because it assumes that Chavismo emerged to uphold rights and equality.

    Yes, off topic, but I am posting this because MP is too lazy.
    So fuckin' sue me!

    PS: I am a boy named Sue, arf!!!!

    Just ignore him or do what I do and leave a little 'gem' for him to start back at you, then screw him (figuratively).

    I've got him contemplating wearing a dress now!

    It helps with the irrelevance and boredom of his posts.

    @4 Ilsen,
    ”Critics have pointed to a supposed inconsistency: how can one support the so-called Bolivarian Revolution while enjoying such enormous riches?

    Ilsen, if my presumption that the critics you mention, are those who defend her, by pointing to the 'supposed' inconsistency between supporting the revolution , while at the same time enjoying stolen wealth, is correct, they are just practising what the Bolivarian revolution is all about : just a front to fool the people while you steal and spread the wealth in the right places, in order to try to gain perpetual power. The sheeple are just the means towards an end. This exactly what Lulla has tried to do in Brazil. Throw crumbs to the people while stealing billions. No wonder his best friends were Chavez and Fidel .

    I think he'd look good in a dress. Combines with his inferiority complex ; maybe a shot of silicone to grow some titties would ease his frustrations.

    You are quite correct. I posted this as a warning to those in Brazil, and Argentina that still believe the so-called 'Socialist' lie that is being
