That there may be a real problem with Maduro leading Venezuela. At the Kazan meeting, Lula nixed Venezuela's bid to enter BRICS, but Russia, none-the-less is doing as they have promised and is making every effort to get along with all countries, regardless of their leadership choices.

Again, though, Maduro's leadership may be proving the point socialists have been trying hard to duck for a very long time. I feel that it is good on paper, particularly for third world countries trying to pull themselves up, but its fatal flaw is it requires perfect humans to lead.

Yes, yes, that's the fatal flaw of every governing and monetary system, just it's a thousand times harder for the governed to free themselves from tyranny under socialism, aka communism, than the others.


pipe up any time....
