I asked a Venezuelan oil executive where all the oil money that was pouring into Venezuela was going, since there was no obvious sign that any of the money was filtering down to the general population. He told me that he suspected that much of the oil money was going to fund other leftist regimes and help leftist candidates win elections such as the recent one in Brazil. Is this true?

Eva,
He is clearly supporting Castro with "Free" oil 'in trade' for Cuban advisors running secret 'internal security' training camps here.

Also, FARC/ELN Columbian revolutionists, that US is fighting, are partially supported materially in exchange for lucrative drug trade that's transported via official health dept vehicles here across Venezuela with Puerto Rico as the foreign destination.

Relationship with Gaddafi and support of his regime has secured Katushka missles and their Libyan technicians here in Venezuela.

With Saddam Hussein Chavez has both supported and trades with his regime, including oil processing shenanigans at Venezuela refineries to cover up the Iraqi original source.

Chavez also donated 1 million $'s to Al Queda in Afganistan shortly after 9/11. He also publicly excused his Chavista supporters burning USA flags then by saying USA brought 9/11 upon itself.

Chavez has put 4.5 Billion $'s in Chinese banks and China is the biggest investor in Venezuela now with more committed there than in all the rest of South America combined, even if we include Mexico, too.

He formed "Circulos Bolivarianos" all over the world, and is paying them on a monthly basis. There are even some in the States: New York, San Francisco, Houston, among other places. The more active ones are in Europe. They are 100% subversives, paid for with Chavez government money.

He is clearly not having the oil revenues trickle down to the needy and is why, after five years of empty promises, he's even largly lost their support as well.
