I've decided to take a little column that almost no one read and bring it here.
First target: Hugo Chavez
The man claimed he wanted to end corruption in Venezuela. Did he live up to his end of the deal? Nope. Instead of making things better; he made things worse by getting government involved in things that government shouldn't be in the first place (oil, schools, healthcare, etc.). If that isn't bad enough, the man appointed his friends and supporters into the Caracas government. So much, in fact, that at least 56 percent of Venezuelans either dislike or outright hate him. What's even worse is that Venezuela is one of the least economically free nations in the western hemisphere. If you don't know what that means, here is an explanation: It's harder to do business in Venezuela than it is in Louisiana. Throw in the fact that the man is fucking paranoid out the wazoo. Not even that asshole radio host Clyde Lewis could match Chavez in the paranoia department.
