    Your thoughts on Hugo Chavez

    More from EWillies1961

    Rest In Peace President Hugo Chavez, You Are The Hero Of The Poor

     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     EWillies1961 told me, 'I ran to do this report because I knew that Hugo Chavez would be demonized immediately. He would be made a caricature for his clownish antics. This man was a product of a system where a country swimming in oil had a massive underclass as the resources of the nation went to the very few. Hugo Chavez began the process to change that and was hated for that for if this “cancer” were to spread to all the nations that continue to allocate its natural resources for the few under the tenet of a manipulated market, the same could occur in their respective nations.'
    - hhanks, CNN iReport producer

    Hugo Chavez died today. May he rest in peace. He saved the lives of thousands  of Venezuela’s poor. He provided healthcare to those that could not afford it.  He did much of what Christians deemed the good book; the Holy Bible commands  them to do. He sheltered the poor by building housing. He fed the hungry by  attempting to build a strong social safety net that was never there. He provided  seed for the poor to begin a path to self-sufficiency.

    President Hugo Chavez was that Latin American guy, that ethnic guy that had  the gall to break the back of the Venezuelan Plutocracy. Just like in the United  States where every middle class and poor centric policy move  by this American  President is fought to the nail by the maintainers of the American Plutocracy,  so was the Plight of  Hugo Chavez, not only from the Venezuelan Plutocracy,  but  the world’s Plutocracy. It is for this reason that he only found refuge in the  Cuban, Russian, & Iranian regimes; not for love of them but for strength in  numbers.

    Just as American major corporations have sit on billions of dollars instead  of patriotically investing it in America in the attempt to cripple President  Obama’s Presidency, so did the businesses in Venezuela as they attempted to  paralyze the country economically.
