I can not understand your post. You should write more clearly.

They had their water privatized the hell out of.

USA should drop Little Boy to La Paz that's the only solution so Santa Cruz can take over this fucking country.

What does that leave us with? It leaves us with making an intelligent decision about which side of the equation we identify with. I can imagine being a fruit grower who owns a couple hundred thousand hectares of land and controls the lives of the hundreds of families on 'my' land. I can also imagine being one of the workers who gets paid so little for the work he does that he can't educate his kids. Now I don't care what 'ology' or 'ism' you want to call that fact of economic exploitation.

Evo won a referendum imposed by the opposition in Bolivia to keep him in power, 64% of the population vote YES then a 54% of the population vote for a new political constitution in a second referendum. Evo is in Bolivia to stay if you don't like it , lump it.

There is no change at all, we have been always tamed by powerful capitalists. The first "agrarian" revolution was a lie and today Soros funds this (as usual) corrupted government. What about this government human violations? Wasn't he who said that at the first dead he was supposed to leave? well more than 50 and counting! We were tired of corrupt ppl and that´s how MAS won..but reality is that we are still stuck there, corruption.

do you have a good source of news that isn't controlled by capitalist-fascist-marxist-com­munist-conservative-neo-libera­ls? hold on, what does that even leave us with?

quit talking shit.

i agree that that is terrible, but the degree to which these people have amassed fortunes as such is the degree to which communism has failed in those countries. I hardly think of China as communist anymore, its much more of a state-capitalist/socialist model.

As it turns out the stuff was NOT pretty schizophrenic.

Please correct your misconceptions.

A woman in Red China has....

Zhang has amassed an estimated fortune of 27 billion yuan (US$3.4 billion)

Sounds like an ultracapitalist to me.

[fr44ed]

Wealthier than US television host Oprah Winfrey and author of the Harry Potter series J.K. Rowling, Zhang is described by acquaintances as a "round-faced, not very tall" woman who "doesn't like dressing up and looks like a person of action"

The first woman to top the Huran Report rich list in China, she has amassed an estimated fortune of 27 billion yuan (US$3.4 billion) by recycling scrap paper imported from the United States.

[fr44ed]

Take note of the Oligarchs which lived like kings in the Soviet union, ans google for the richest woman in China. Check out her wealth.
