Venezuelans are broke and angry. That is not a great combination. I have good reason to think that some within the military are very unhappy. Chavez has to be scared.
His economy can only get worse. I feel sorry for those who are good people and who have to deal with this. Like Hitler...he has a lot of thugs around him. We shouldn’t forget, though, that the Venezuelans are very creative and often find ways to protest and/or resist that are effective enough to keep them hanging in there. ;-)
