Rubbish. That clown does nothing to provide food and shelter to his own people. Venezuela should be enjoying the oil revenues created by the boom in oil. Instead, the economy is languishing with that dictator in charge.

As for me the appeal is simply his willingness to seek economic arrangements outside the status quo. Im curious as to how it ends up, if any new paradigms are created, how successful or unsuccessful it will be.
Really? "...arrangements outside the status quo"? Stealing the wealth of his own nation and screaming and shrieking about evil capitalists have been around a long time. There is nothing new here.

His rhetoric is just humorous.
If a self-destructive clown making a fool of himself in front of the world is amusing, then I suppose it is. Of course, for the people of Venezuela it isn't funny at all....
