How many Venezuelans are communist revolutionaries with visions of Che in their heads?

Oddly very few. These are economic refugees from once the most prosperous nation in South America. I lived and worked there for two years back in the early 70s. I speak Spanish. It was a prosperous pro western nation but corrupt. No less corrupt than our nation today. The corruption caused the nation to vote for Chaves, a communist.

He disguised himself as a populist of the people. He was a hard core Marxist. Oddly the people of Venezuela rejected him in the next election and that election was corrupt. Chaves did not win though those that counted the ballots gave him the election. All elections since are fixed.

They need to fix their country instead of running away from it.

It’s the absolute, monumental gall of these people who feel they have some God given right to barge in here and then get all mouthy demanding things they didn’t pay for and aren’t entitled to.
