The Mugabe of Venezuela
URACHICHE, Venezuela — The squatters arrive before dawn with machetes and rifles, surround the well-ordered rows of sugar cane and threaten to kill anyone who interferes. Then they light a match to the crops and declare the land their own....The government says the goal of the nationwide resettlement is to make better use of idle land and to make Venezuela less dependent on food imports.
You'd think that Hugo would look at how well this plan worked in Rhodesia Zimbabwe. Looks like we'll have another Oil for Food program Real Soon Now...assuming that the oil wells are still pumping by then.
