Re: [MBZ] OT Venezuela situation

[clay monroe via Mercedes]

The tree of Liberty does need to be watered regularly.  

I propose that all people who aspire to leadership positions or political 
chicanery should be allowed to go as high as they can within ten years.  At the 
end of that period, they are taken out for the crowds to witness their 
execution.  This would make space for new ideas and deter career political 
dreams.  A grand Celebration for all.There should be no retirement fund for 
these folks, as they will not survive politics.  That saves the taxpayers, as 
there would also be no need for security details keeping track of “retired” 
leaders.

That is not the saying among those who lived there.   The land is a wonder, the 
people far less so.  I, and many other former residents, suspect it has to do 
with the betrayal of Simon Bolivar by those in what is now Venezuela.

That is an opportunity to teach her.   What they call a "Teachable Moment."

Funny how people who love to spend OPM falter when Unk Sam wants to 
excise money form them.


And it would have been hilarious if it weren't so sick, how the 
congresscritters howled when they learned they would also suffer the 
"benefits" of o-bummercare.  (until they got HRH barry to write them an 
illegal exemption)

On a peripheral note, my daughter today realized she is going to have 
to write a check for the first time to Unkie Sam come April. Being 
more towards the left side of center than I am, I had expected she 
would welcome this opportunity to support the gummint wisdom and 
programs, but alas this is not the case when it becomes one’s own 
money being extracted.

One year, heck, half a year would curl the hairs of any simple minded idealist. 
 Lack of food, potable water, something to wipe your backside with, crazed 
police force, and kleptocratic military.  Not to mention messed up housing, 
rampant crime, water outages, power outages, no free press, laws restricting 
ownership of personal items such as TV, cell phone, interweb, car of your 
choosing.

BTDT, no t-shirt worth wearing.  If it were only for the flora, fauna, and 
geography, it would be paradise.  The people are the nastiest creatures the 
Good Lord could produce.

That place is a true S***hole.   The trouble with sending ‘Merkuns down there 
is tossing them in with the standard locals, not those with cash.   Set them up 
as middle class, and then they might see how messed up the Marxist Socialist 
ideals are.  Venezuela make Soviet Russia look like a real workers paradise.

Citgo!  Which is why I would never buy any of their gasoline…

There was a huge refinery on the southern end of Aruba that pretty much lived 
off of the Venezuelan crude that came in by tanker.

Venezuela was, just a short time ago, the richest country in South America
with more farm produce, oil and mineral resources than any other country
there.

Now, it is the poster child for socialist government success. I'm sure the
current situation is "only temporary".. until they get some more "other
peoples money to spend".

I find it hard to believe that near half of our population prefer
