I ain't no lover of communism, nor am I a lover of capitalism as it stands now. No need to discuss the defects of communism as everyone knows 'em. But what I can say is that the form of capitalism practiced then up to now isn't working in third world country like ours, where people in the neighborhood are dying of Tuberculosis everyday not because the country doesn't have enough money but because the traditional elite businessmen, who has controlled the government ever since, have divided the nations spoils among themselves while leaving the poor perpetually impoverished. And the type of democracy that the westerners planted on us has become an effective tool to keep them in power, because it's a democracy
dictated by money which only the elite has, thereby becoming a self-perpetuating tool for them. This is probably the same reason that guys like Chavez has started to become appealing to many Latin-American people. These are the things that many westerners simply don't understand. Most people in the third world are no worse off than those in Cuba. Believe me, I have seen it first hand and am still seeing it, shaking my head in dismay throughout...

Hugo was great at first but he's going a bit nuts now. What he's done with Venezuelan oil policy is good though. I like Evo Morales too. You've got to admire anybody who shows up at campaign rallies wearing an outfit consisting mainly of root vegetables.
I prefer Hugo, I love his oil better.
Watch out, Hugo, they're gonna come and get you...
...Sorry folks, I got carried away a bit... ...Where were we?..
...ok, back to US politics and election...
Once in awhile, get outside in fresh air, take a deep breath & with a deep sigh, let out all the things that's bottled up inside you & be free, & you'll get a glimpse of nirvana.
