Venezuela meeting vids

here they are from the Hands Off Venezuela conference

Samuel the new ambassador and John McDonnell and myself spoke as well/

I think what impresses me about Chavez is that he realises they need to move beyond oil to sustain the economy and global ecology.

A bold politician...think of all the politicos who compromise on the easy things like academy schools and privatisation and yet in an oil economy, where change will be pretty difficult, Chavez is already saying lets move beyond this petrol thang.

75% emergy in Ven is renewable already!

Chavez cares about his power only. It will take quite a while to turn Venezuela into a Cuba, but as long as communists run the country it will just get worse and worse. Chavez is determined.

God of the Universe says
demand should exceed supply

but don’t let prices rise
shortages are much better

God of the Universe thinks
communism is GREAT
