Army sent in to Venezuelan cities as unrest prompts coup warning

Army sent in to Venezuelan cities as unrest prompts coup warning. Another socialist success story! We’re sure the “unrest” is due to some Tea Partiers upset about ObamaCare because their economy is going great guns (so to speak.)

  • Thought, at least the Cuban regime lasted a few decades longer, in spite of having much less natural ressources.

  • We Hugo's plan is working well for the next generation of socialist slaves in South America.......Yea this worked real well.....

    • Hugo forgot one minor detail when he nationalized all foreign interests in Venezuela, once they don't own the infrastructure, the company stops investing in it. Then it is up to the inexperienced socialists to run and maintain the equipment. Once they fail, the money supply dries up, and there is nothing left to exploit. Dictatorship fails yet again.

    • I see my socialist/commie pajamaboy troll is here again..I guess he/she/it must be mute.....it can only push buttons like a monkey...

  • Sounds like Socialism is rapidly reaching it's endgame in Venezuela, only around 6 months before the UN peace keeper force arrives. Meanwhile we will get to listen to Maduro screech about how capitalism destroyed his country from a well deserved exile in Cuba.
