I don't understand why Newarkhiphop, who's so radical, loves to live in a capitalistic and free market society so much. Why not join the struggle? It's the equivalent of rocking a Che shirt and ordering a meal at a corporate food chain like McDonalds.

What a ****ing joke of an article. NYT is a joke. The tone of the article was that GWB allowed leftist in South America to gain power but now thanks to Barack Obama we have shown the world that Neoliberalism is a panacea for all and the southerners are coming around to their senses. What a joke to think that the average citizen in Venezuela gives a **** who the US president is. I mean come on. And so what if Chavez isn't a great guy. Ever notice how Mother Theresa wasn't in charge of a country? If the poor in Venezuela support this guy then I do too. I also am glad to see someone nationalizing industry. I wish that Canada would nationalize our oil industry but that's never going to happen.

How Chávez Has Helped the Poor « Embassy of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela in the U.S.

Policies enacted since Chávez was elected have also helped redistribute the gains of Venezuela’s record economic growth. Unemployment is down, employment in the formal sector is up, and the minimum wage has increased notably. More important, income has grown fastest for Venezuela’s poorest. According to the polling firm Datanalisis, from 1998 to 2006 Venezuela’s poorest sectors saw an increase in income of 445 percent, and the wealthiest saw a gain of 194 percent. These gains have come despite a concerted effort by certain sectors of the opposition to throw the country into crisis in 2002 and 2003. In a shocking omission, Rodríguez does not mention that the sabotage of the oil industry in late 2002 and early 2003 bled Venezuela of 24 percent of its GDP. By comparison, during four years of the Great Depression, the United States lost 29 percent of its GDP.

And for those that want to scream fraud, the opposition has already admitted that they are having NO ISSUES and have 3 of there own independent monitors at EVERY polling station

Essentially, whoever the demonic cacs uniformly come out against, is basically one of the good guys. :heh:
