The question is, what oil company would WANT to invest in Venezuela with Chavez in power? Maybe he should talk to Conoco.

I don’t think Venzolanos will repeal term limits and unless he has more influence with the military than many believe he should be gone at the end of his current term.

The problem for Latin America is that even after Chavez is gone his legacy will carry on. He did a lot to finance the campaign of frau Fernandez de Kirchner, the leftist president of Argentina and is reputed to have provided a lot of funding for Mauricio Funes and the FMLN in El Salvador.

This man has and continues to damage the entire hemisphere.

Considering he just nationalized most of the assets of firms that had been doing business there, one can only assume that only STUPID oil companies would want to invest in Venezuela. Frankly I have zero sympathy for anyone willing to do business with dictators. They deserve to lose their investments.
