            Well, in a way, the oil revenues are "found money," and if Chavez doesn't get rid of it, the Law of Found Money will catch up to him and bring plagues and pestilence upon Venezuela.

            But this is stupid. I'm sure there are schools and hospitals waiting to be built in Caracas.

                They're being built, but Hugo is also building solidarity with the people in countries that might attack him.

                            OTOH, London is largely rich enough to care of the transportation of its poor if it so wants. It's the richest city in Europe, remember.

                            The Venezuelian worker doesn't have an access to the same mountain of tax money than the Londoner, so this priority is absolutely not straight.

                              a mayor buys fuel at the cheapest price available. Chavez buys good publicity at a price that he sees as fair.

                                So, does chegitz actually think that taking money from the poor to give to the (comparatively) rich is a good idea, or does he just defend anything Chavez does on principle?
