Hugo Chavez has done way more for the poor in his country than any one ever has. And he continues to try to improve the lives of poor people in his country. The people who are bitching about him in Venezuela are the ubber rich upper class that have been padding their own pockets with Oil money for years, while stepping all over the lower class.

the coldest average month in venezuela is january. the daily minimum/maximum temperature range for that month is 13.1 to 29 C. there is hardly a need for comfort heating... if there was a need for heat, they would have heat...
edit: i agree with Ekstaza...

I'm sorry, but the average temperature really doesnt mean shit when your living on some peak in the Andes. On the equator or not, its cold as fuck up there....

This is like a lesson in 711 retailing. If cunthead has a product that he controls but isn't really owned by him and he gives it away to people who are far richer than the people who could benefit from the money he could gain by selling the product than he damn well better have a real reason for that. If you pull that shit on Wall Street you get arrested. Wall Street scams have to be way better than that. Are any of you getting your heads out of your asses yet? The MAN is stealing from the PEOPLE to further his own PR objectives. Capisce, nitwits?

That said, its amazing American politicians can't find a common ground with Chavez. They have so much in common...
-------------------- "And we, inhabitants of the great coral of the Cosmos, believe the atom (which still we cannot see) to be full matter, whereas, it too, like everything else, is but an embroidery of voids in the Void, and we give the name of being, dense and even eternal, to that dance of inconsistencies, that infinite extension that is identified with absolute Nothingness and that spins from its own non-being the illusion of everything."

How do we know that he isn't still making a nice profit for his people.
Venezuelans pay only $0.12 a gallon for gasoline. I'm sure heating oil is equally comparitively cheap for them.
Chavez can sell to us super cheap and still make a bundle for his people.
