Serious question...how do you feel about the fact that Hugo's entire economy and government model depends on oil sales to America?

he is sitting on the largest oil reserve in the world , whats the problem with that?

O i get it, maybe he should reduce the amount of oil production up the price in his out country , keep all the profit for himself and a few of his wealthy friends while the rest of the country dies?

your whole "hostile to everyone" persona is tired :ld:

I'm saying...a lot of times people on the far left of the political spectrum praise countries like Venezuela or Sweden, which is fine, but I was curious how you reconcile with the fact that their socialist model is really only possible because of their vast oil wealth. Only reason I ask is because typically people who are pro-socialism are also very environmentally aware. In other words, promoting green energy is the absolute worst thing you can do for these socialist "utopias".

Ok fine lets talk about this , am asking you if oil is a vast resource in Venezuela what is the problem with them using that resource to better themselves economically and socially? I am environmentally aware but not one of these green freaks.......

I think it also means they're not self-sufficient

it is an interesting form of socialism that's supported by capitalism

I'm not blaming them at all. I was just curious how you felt about the fact that Venezuela, a country you seem to be very fond of, can only really exist as it is because of America, a country you seem the have a lot of contempt for.

He has a resource that allows his people to better themselves. You can't knock that.

I agree, and I didn't.

No need to put words in my mouth, I never defended America or ignored the existence of slavery. Where'd this even come from?

:ohmy: :laugh:

So Venezuela ONLY exist because of America? Care to back that up with some facts?

Venezuela is only Americas 4th major supplier of oil, so if Chavez is so bad etc etc like the media here and former presidents have said, them why not just cut them off and stop buying oil from? Surely they will tumble if good ol Massa' isnt there? Right cause Venezuela doesn't export to anyone else? Cause the Chinese aren't about to become the biggest importers of Venezuelan oil

How about because we need them more than they need us? :leon:

Right now we get a little under a million barrels daily of oi from them , you think gas prices are bad now? and the economy is faltering now? What do you think would happen if a million barrels of oil all of a sudden stopped coming in here. Total collapse? No but it wouldn't be a pretty sight

But you see the Chavez and the people Venezuela are not like that, they won't put up a embargo knowing that it will cause chaos and suffering for others. You know what they do?

They offer FREE oil to poor black families here in Harlem

CITGO-Venezuela Heating Oil Program Warming Harlem Hearts --NTDTV.org

Nice quote from this article

Key U.S. political leaders sent an open letter to the petroleum industry requesting assistance in meeting the demand. CITGO was the only company to respond.

Where are the American oil company's?

Or how about this after that earthquake in Haiti, what did Chavez do, while US "aid" workers were caught abusing Haitian children

Chavez was writing off ALL of Haiti oil debt

Latin American Herald Tribune - Chavez Writes Off Haiti’s Oil Debt to Venezuela


I could go on and on, point of all this is that yea fine oil is there major export but again SO WHAT??, he is taking that oil revenue and using it do do right by his people and millions of others

Mean while we out here winning hearts & minds

I think it goes both ways

but their virtuous caring and sharing socialism is supported by evil cooperate owned polluting machines. it's like being a crack dealer that gives to charity or some shyt
