What? You think the IMF is afraid other Latin American Countries with growing economies and controllable inflation will want to mimic Venezuela?Chizzang wrote:Here's why Chavez is hated...
1) He created a state run bank and removed the Venezuelan economy from the control of the privately owned centralized banking system that run our country - this move frustrated the U.S. media so much they regularly report that Venezuela is in an economic "shambles" - all the while - the private banking systems that control all the worlds major currencies are busily trying to destroy the Venezuelan economy
2) He removed the Venezuelan oil industry from the 1971 & 1973 Oil Currency Exchange agreements
These agreements regulate that ALL OIL be traded in U.S. currency / creating an artificial and permanent demand for U.S. dollars on the international exchange markets...
Those two things alone are enough to get him black listed by all US Media outlets
I'm no Chavez apologist
But he was popularly elected (FACT) by I think 66% and 75% of their population voted (unlike here in the US)
And he's not the man "the News" companies say he is - who simply read what they're told to read

Free elections? With a controlled press, voter intemidation, arresting the opposition. Yeah...
Caracas's murder rate has quintupled under Chavez's watch
While the poor are making more money, the increased wages haven't kept up with inflation.

He did pretty good in a relatively short time in power
I'm sure he left the poor the majority of his wealth in his will.

VENEZUELA — Criminal Justice International Associates (CJIA), a risk assessment and global analysis firm in Miami, estimated in a recent report that the Chávez Frías family in Venezuela has “amassed a fortune” similar to that of the Castro brothers in Cuba.
According to Jerry Brewer, president of CJIA, “the personal fortune of the Castro brothers has been estimated at a combined value of around $2 billion.”

Re: Hugo Chavez Dead
The reason "bankers" are mentioned is quite simple
Venezuela has created a National Bank
Unlike our privately owned central banking system that control our currency '
The Venezuelan economy is NOT controlled by the Privately owned Central Banks
(BTW: The same private banks who control ALL of the worlds currency)
That might seem like a small thing - but it's a HUGE thing
This is common knowledge to those who do not get their news from "Giant News Companies"
Giant companies: Who all read the same script handed to them and don;t even know where "the News comes from" they just regurgitate it on que
My Niece (who lives in Seattle now) spent 4 months in Venezuela last year
She's fluent and employed by an Alternative Energy Company
She was doing a study in Venezuela
Her reports and experience in Venezuela are DRAMATICALLY different than Bloomberg News and FOX and MSNBC
She's no Chavez supporter (that's for sure)
But she basically said the US News is about 85% inaccurate on all accounts
I know that's hard to believe - because we hold ourselves in such high regard

We have a rich history of demonizing popular leaders who threaten nationalization of things - Mousadeq would be a good example. Turns out we're all about freedom and elections as long as they open the doors for western economic imperialism.

Streaming the processional, I find it amazing how one man can be idolized so much when in turn, he'd simply squash you like a bug. We're certainly a funny species.

We like processing other countries oil
and processing and packaging their fruit and veggies at pennies on the dollar
We like forcing them to sell their oil based on the Oil Currencies acts from the early 1970's - where US Dollars must be used - instead of them selling it using their own money and their own bank
We like it when popularly elected leaders do exactly what WE tell them to do...
Who cares how Nationalization is working for them / it's their country
They voted for Chavez twice and he won in a LANDSLIDE
And of course their economy is struggling now
The Private Banks that have been controlling our money (and Europe's) for centuries are sabotaging the Venezuelan economy
This is where Baldy will imply I don't know how the world works....

Re: Hugo Chavez Dead
In his whole lifetime, if Chavez has ordered even once person to "disappear" for his own personal gain, it makes him a monster. I certainly don't think he's a "killing machine" at the scale of other dictators, but if one of the many independent Venezuelan sources abroad and at home are to be believed, he's certainly ordered a quite a few. But again, it only takes one.Chizzang wrote:No idolization here / I wouldn't trust him / But he's also not the monster we're led to believe∞∞∞ wrote:Streaming the processional, I find it amazing how one man can be idolized so much when in turn, he'd simply squash you like a bug.
