You're still giving it away for free. jsbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16526596147319229399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-28033325287365426122014-08-10T19:45:55.360+02:002014-08-10T19:45:55.360+02:00They will just keep muddling ....people will less ...They will just keep muddling ....people will less expectations and will adapt.The gov will be helped with sudden rising in oil prices due to crisis...only a massive Unity protest that extends into time could get rid of these criminalsfirepighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15158275219887987252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-81915482631499735982014-08-10T15:54:06.814+02:002014-08-10T15:54:06.814+02:00For any that think there is a way out of this mess...For any that think there is a way out of this mess all you have to do is read what our beloved president said yesterday<br /><br />Maduro llama a trabajadores a tomar empresas que hagan “guerra económica”<br /><br />http://www.noticierodigital.com/2014/08/maduro-llama-a-trabajadores-a-tomar-empresas-que-hagan-guerra-economica/<br /><br />They are getting so desperate to push the blame for the economic collapse of the country & their mismanagemnet of billions & billions of dollars that they are going to destroy what's left of any productive & profitable companies.Island Canucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-81648127289190004082014-08-10T05:30:59.041+02:002014-08-10T05:30:59.041+02:00We've been there for a long time, I'd say ...We've been there for a long time, I'd say since Manuel Rosales was chosen to be Chavez's contender. I mean the man was as much a joke as venezuelan politics.I would've felt insulted and outraged if i had the political concience i have today.<br />If there wasn't one before that, i'd say that was the best indicator of corruption inside te opposition.<br /><br />We are a one-party state managed by drug lords and mafias. Nothing will improve unless a large opposition puts its pants on and protests like the Arabs.<br />I know some of you think there's another way, but I'm not immortal so I dont think waiting til the big bad chavismo runs out of money. It will never happen, you can do all the research,analyze what you will, but at the bottom line: These people are not your regular dictatorship. <br /><br />They won't fall, they need to be put down.<br />Juan Crespohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13813847010096229013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-33961807256058301682014-08-10T02:11:04.575+02:002014-08-10T02:11:04.575+02:00Perhaps in our desperate search for political lead...Perhaps in our desperate search for political leadership from the oppo, we are expecting too much too soon, forgetting that pols like Romulo Betancourt had their years of fasting in the desert, so to speak, before bursting on the national stage with greater support. Having said that, there is no current oppo pol who has the intellectual acumen and the political savvy to command much respect. Is it because these oppo pols have been mollycoddled by Aveledo's Guardería?
