    Hugo Chavez was certainly sincere about social justice, but I don’t think he chose the best road to achieve that goal. Historically, socialism has always been detrimental to the nations it was supposed to help. Also, I don’t understand why Chavez hated America with such intensity. By the way, I noticed that countries whose leaders hate the US are most of the times countries where atrocities are commited on a daily basis…

    Yes, which makes me ask, is it animosity for what America stands for?

    I’m sure that neither Shanna nor Fausta would say that there may well have been actions by the US govt and by US-owned businesses in the nations south of the US that would have engendered some animosity
