Chavez, Lula, Evo, misery, violence and terrorism, etc.

Venezuelan elections are upon us and Chavez looks certain to win. With billions of dollars flowing from oil revenue, the illegal drugs and illegal arms market funneled to elect creeps like him and Lula, how can the people compete? How can democracy win against a de facto parallel state that has imposed itself on the lives of South Americans for generations. Apparently democratic mechanisms are still in place in countries like Colombia, where the US has decided to pay particular attention to for fear of it turning into a narco-guerilla state, akin to pre-2002 Afghanistan. In a perfect world, all drugs are legal but since we have the nanny state syndrome… thank you USA for creating a bastion of resistance against the rule of coca and the gun in Colombia. Alvaro Uribe, Colombia’s current president has successfully turned around a nation which was completely held hostage by crime and terrorism. And he is absolutely right, the war in Colombia has to be won, the narco-guerillas have to be defeated or better yet, wiped out. 


The alarming amount of crime in Brasil, Argentina and other South America nations is directly related to the production of cocaine. Coca plantations should be eradicated biologically with fungi and the coca plant should rendered extinct, either that or completely and internationally legalize cocaine and bring all this fringe activity into a market economy. That would compromise the criminal element and generate thousands of jobs and much needed revenue for the region. Chavez is on a mission to completely eradicate democracy from South America by extending a Castro-like Cuban domination of the region. He has his allies in Colombia’s FARC and ELN terrorist organizations (both control vast narco empires and are privy to billions of dollars in cocaine sales) and in Brasil the MST (Landless “Workers” Movements) and criminal gangs like the PCC. These well armed guerillas are being mobilized for a hostile take over of the continent. The international community has remained as muted now as it was during our dictatorship years, and once again our continent has taken a turn for the worst.

It’s downright perverse to call what happened in Brasil a democratic election when the winner received millions of dollars from a dictator like Fidel and narcomoney from the FARC and ELN is hardly democratic. This evil kabal of forces is known as the “São Paulo Forum,” they have been behind the Lula, Evo and Chavez “elections.” Evo Morales has promised the expulsion of Brazilian land owners in Bolivia, and to make sure they leave he has hinted he’ll mobilize his Chavez-funded army to carry out the expulsion. Does this sound like Mugabe’s Zimbabwe? This move will probably have a similar effect on Bolivia’s economy. Zimbabwe, once the breadbasket of Southern Africa is now a failed and destitute state where starvation is common and deadly. The potential for large-scale violence in South America right now is undeniable, we are looking at a future of more crime, more terrorism, and possibly a large number of refugees pouring across borders. Laws are being passed to legitimize the seizure of private property in all the aforementioned countries. Public administration of once held privately owned businesses will lead to further poverty and greater violence. The signs are clear, and they look rather ominous.

Lula is an idiot

But the people who voted for him this second time around are even dumber. Yesterday, Lula was in Venezuela inaugurating a bridge over the Orinoco river built by a Brazilian private company (why was he there?) and he managed to insult the entire nation of Venezuela by calling them Bolivians. In Gabon he asked president Ondimba to teach him the secret of his presidential staying power, he happens to be a dictator who has governed Gabon since 1967. In Namibia he actually said ‘wow, this doesn’t even look like Africa!’ Moron… He did everything in his power to get Evo Morales elected and forgave Bolivia’s R$60 million debt with Brasil, now Evo is stealing our natural gas plants there. The irony is that there’s not enough technical know-how and expertise in Bolivia to build, run or maintain any of Petrobrás’ installation on its soil, so the threat is pretty ridiculous ‘give us the gas or we will force you to explore it and export it for us!’ Evo has also forcebly expelled a Brazilian company from operating near our common border causing an already economically deprecated area to lose hundreds of jobs which lead his own people to turn on him. Idiots… Meanwhile Chavez is building military bases in Bolivia, raising the threat level in the continent and allocating money to the military instead of investing in infrastructure and education which is what our continent needs the most. Great! 


Here’s another imbecile at work… Meanwhile Kirchner is ranting and raving about Uruguay’s Finnish-company Botnia’s paper mill. He claims that the plant will pollute Argentina’s drinking water, what a laugh! All of Helsinki’s drinking water comes from a river that has an older and less hi-tech plant dumping into it. Kirchner has given protester carte blanche to block a bridge linking Argentina to Uruguay robbing Uruguay of much needed trade and supplies sinking it into further debt. Here’s big government attacking the market and thusly destroying lives. South America needs libertarianism like Lula needs a brain, desperately that is! There’s always Chile… My hope is that Lula gets impeached, Bolivia sinks into the Earth, Chavez doesn’t get re-elected but South America has a persistent history of failing ignobly at every corner it turns (leaving out Chile which is a paragon of success in the continent). Meanwhile Chile is poised to sign a free-trade agreement with Australia (Chile has FTA’s with NAFTA, the EU, Mercosul, South Korea, China and Panama), it’s no wonder the average Chilean makes 3.5 times what the average Brazilian or Argentinean makes and 4 times what the average Venezuelan makes and 6 times what the average Bolivian makes. Must be all that free-marketeering, nah, it couldn’t be…
