Puting “monopoly companies in the hands of workers”

Hugo Chavez has the language and the hopes and dreams and anger of the poor proletarian down pat. He clearly has learned what the bank robber learned. You rob banks because that’s where the money is.

In the Hugo Hubris dialect, that means fool the most amount of voters in order to get the power to continue to keep them poor. He robs the poor to get their votes and keep them poor, very profitable work if you can get it.

High fives Hugo! Don’t forget to change the constitution to insure the “‘workers” have an office and a monopoly “for life.”

Besides promising power to the people he has no ability nor intention to deliver, how does he fool the most amount of voters, a majority at least?

Well, first off, he does not have to really fool all of them, he can just buy off a sufficient number of them resulting in Hugo’s Hugh Hegemony. After all, democracy is at work in UN member Venezuela. Which by the way, makes them part of the democratic minority among the members of the UN.

Hugo’s Hugh Hegemony means he personally has a  monopoly on one of the great known oil fortunes. Sort of makes Rockefeller look like a beginner, which I guess he was in essence. Good work, Hugo, you have really made something of this country.

Who can see this? Actually, who can NOT see this is a better question.

So, so many, in surprising places, that’s who. And worse, in the US that includes both Republican and Democratic knee jerk polar policy makers, each working bizarrely to perpetuate his theft. Not their avowed intention of course, but the result.

Outcomes are what matters, assuming no rules have been broken.
