In fact, he was apparently such a good "Robbin' Hood" that he managed to accumulate a family fortune of about 2 BILLION dollars, according to some reports!
Chavez seems to be most popular among the uneducated poor. The reason why he is so popular is because he promises loads of free stuff and blames all their problems on people the people and countries they envy.
Sounds familiar. Except our guy promotes class envy inhouse.
No one ever seems to care about the middle class. Pretend to be on the side of the poor though and you're golden. The poor are not more important than the middle class.
Odd how easily people will fall for charisma and lies. Chavez had a big nasty mouth, was into name calling, and now that mouth is shut for good.
You don't understand empires and running empires. It does not matter much what party the President is. As slow as ay reform in in the USA it's self it's 10 or maybe 50 times slower in the field of foreign affairs.
In the UK the diplomats used to say, "governments come and they go on Downing street but in Whitehall, methods, aims and policy never changes".
American foreign policy is ALWAYS Imperial no matter who sits in the White house.
This coming from a canuck? LOL. Who do you think colonized your country? Oh wait France wasn't empire building never mind. You should thank them for putting you in a place where there is so much syrup.
Principle in meaning he stole over 2 billion dollars during his term as a Dear Leader? The people starve and he gains 2 billion dollars. So he spread the wealth a lot like our Dear Leader will do by building up his private funds?
WHO SAYS Chavez stole this money? The American RWNJ media!!!!
This claim is conspicious for the complete and total lack of any kind of proofs, links or anything else.
The RWNJs project this crap on anyone they don't like and do you know why they do it 100% of the time?
They do it because they know with perfect assurance that if they, the RWNJs were in Chavez's position they would grab as much loot as is possible to grab. Loot grabbing is as much a core of the RWNJ thinking as cutting taxes for their 1% paymasters is.
If Chavez was as interested n self inrichment as these idiots say he was they WHY would he waste tens of millions of dollars helping "Poor Americans" with their heating bills. He just wouldn't at all.
The RWMJs have a scifi, pie in the sky narrative for everything it seems. I suggest they come up with some excuse for why they are such friggin idiots. "We can't help it we "were born this way".
"It's the cosmic rays, they are destroying our IQ. It has reduced a normal RWHJs IQ from it's normal level of 80 down to 60."
They really don't need any excuses except the one they use.
We are nuts, crazy, incompetent, visious, perverted and all the other things we are because the DEMOCRATS make us this way!!!!
