Well done Chavez! Flush all the entrepreneurs and businessmen out of your country. Then the scientists and engineers will follow. When all is said and done, you'll be the Zimbabwe of the South American continent. Congratulations!
They'll bring their money, their skills, and the right-of-center politics. They should fit right in with the Cuban-Americans in South Florida. They were all deprived of their life, liberty, property, and their pursuit of happiness by leftist dirtbags. They have seen the light, and can help defend us from the leftist RATs in this country.
Deja vu Miami early 60's.
I'm hoping this influx of foreign money is going to shore up the real estate market in Florida. Obviously the Venezuelans are not going to do much for the price of middle-income housing in Tampa, but all those condos in Miami, the big houses up and down the east coast of Florida, the horse farms in Wellington and Ocala--they could finally get bought. There's been so much spec upscale residential construction in Miami, much of it just sitting on the market lately.

Good thing there's nothing to interfere with their personal growth. . . like borders for instance.
Good! Bring them here.
We'll be happy to add Venezuelas wealth to our country.
Mean while Venuzuela gets poorer as it circles the bowl
Lots of Venezuelans are also coming to Panama and bringing their cash with them.
It has done wonders for real estate prices down there. Even Boca Raton, where my parents live, has seen a sizeable influx of wealthy Venezuelans.
That's what Communism does. It's good that the intelligent, productive, hard-working Venezuelans are coming to the USA. Too bad if Chavez' actions make things difficult for his people - it's his fault.
And so this is how Communism works. It steals from the productive people and gives to the unproductive, unless the productive have a place to run to, and here they do.
Careful, the goal of Communism is to make the whole world communist so there will be no place to run to.
Where are we going to go after the Democrats finally have their way?
Any takers?
As long as they speak English, pay taxes and vote Republican, they're welcome as far as I'm concerned
