The difference between Venezula and America, is that Vez bail outs the poor in its country and America bails out the rich!

[tqrules]

the us has been killing secretly so many people in those countries for decades in order to keep gas oil and other resources. this indepentancy move is not really suprising to call it evil is to say the colonies are evil and the king of britan is awesomeness. you should look to such things in perspective and use comon sense. if chaves is supporting education to low income people they will eventually gett a grade/start a buisness and so on and so forth then the suppresion of the upperclas will end

[revolaid]

@astruggia HAHAHA, I've talked to people in Venezuela who said poor people live way better under chavez. Chavez being in US interests? really? if that's the case why is the media demonizing him? Chavez kicked US coorporation out of Venezuela thus not allowing the US to control Venezuela's oil

[bahtalorom]

...what have you seen and where? When did you go to Venezuela and how long did you stay there?

[astruggia]

@tqrules My god you sooo wrong. I live in Venezuela and Chavez is part of US interests. He has double speech. He takes privete companies from owners, and in a few months they don´t produce any goods. His people buy food that is due in a short period of time, they get a discount and they keep it. We have found 150 thousand of tons of food that is not longer good for consumption. Education has decreased in quality, inflation is aprox 30% per year, and crime is really high. This is shit. Believe m

It aint no SECRET the U.S. is trying to rule the world. Any nation or any person that opposes this plan of domination gets portrayed by the U.S. as the bad guy. "I feel like im taking crazy pills" lol .... dont people get it?

[MsDimplecheeks]

@jibsmokestack1 Thats what i was thinking. Cenk is completely ignorant on this issue.

@bapyou

Nah, I'm sure they're swell guys, because as everyone knows, only one side of a conflict can contain the fascist dictators and once we've established which side, the side fighting them must by default be righteous. Like in gang wars.

[qtzlctl2012]

@mjr256 have you seen South of the Border?

[bapyou]

@mjr256 "(Stone) must get it from his fascist dictator heroes"

The fascists in South America are not the left-wing leaders Stone profiles in the film. The fascists in South America were leaders supported by the United States for decades. People like Augusto Pinochet (put in power by a CIA-inspired coups) or Alfredo Stroessner of Paraguay, beneficiary of Operation Condor. Both men killed & tortured 1000s. You see, fascism is an inherently right-wing political philosophy.
