The Script - It Does Not Change
The Vicious and Powerhungry - They Do Not Learn Care
Of Course humans are smart enough to control complex systems; Economies, Teh Environment . . .
...President Chavez’s drive to control the distribution of food...
... Chavez launched an “economic war on the bourgeoisie owners” of supermarkets, mills, rice plants and food distribution companies.
...said the failure of the state-owned PDVAL [Petroleos de Venezuela], a subsidiary of the national oil company, to distribute food imports that rotted at the shores…
...Several thousands tons of rotting meat ... “stank like 100 dead dogs.” ...
...Inflation leapt to 21 per cent in May as food prices rose 41 per cent…
Soldiers have been deployed to raid private homes for food stores.
Chavez: “Socialism is necessarily better than capitalism across the board and, that’s what we’re proving,"
It wasn’t until Lenin instituted the moneyless economy under the New Economic Policy that modern Communist ideology took off. After the adoption of this policy, the United Socialist Soviet Republic entered an era of heretofore unseen surpluses and a vast increase in wealth, as exhibited by increased levels of consumption, by households and industry. To the average Russian living at that time, they were able to rely upon their government for housing, food, clothing, medical treatment, as well as building and arming Europe’s greatest military.
That Hugo Chavez is willing to take his people down this same path leads one to comment, “well, it’s about time!”
Best of luck to the rest of the world, that remains corruptedly tied to the capitalist system of greed and self-interest. Only when we, too, adopt the correct views of social justice will we begin to see the rewards of Green Energy, free medical care, and the just distribution of the fruits of our collective labours.
