<<<<<Although I don't share his penchant for foul language, I believe he is sincere in his beliefs>>>>>> No kidding!! Please direct your comment to the foul mouth one, not me. I am sincere when I say 90% of the wealth in Venezuela is controlled by less than 10% of the population. Until a greater majority of the population can share in this wealth, there will always be poverty and lack of jobs. Chavez is the one glimmer of hope the ordinary Venezuelan has at procuring a decent paying job. If his will is strong enough to handle his adversaries, then there is hope. If not Venezuela will continue on its present course. These are my beliefs and I too am sincere about them!

<<<<I was simply reacting to your statement which appeared to be racist>>>> Please point out in which post I displayed any racism. I believe there are corrupt people in very high political positions in Venezuela and these are the people that have kept the ordinary Venezuelan from exploiting his/her potential. Get rid of them and international investment will come back to Venezuela. Chavez has the tools, I hope he uses them!

Hey Carl... <<I learned a lot last time around, especially that a mining thread is a lot like a cult. Anyone who drops in with an unpopular view is ridiculed endlessly and eventually stoned to death. Never mind if their view turns out to be the correct view - that's irrelevant to the mob who dominate the conversation.>> You are !))% right!!! Your statement should be mandatory reading for all new SI subscribers. The KRY thread can be a case study, but there are hundreds more. John
