  • One can only hope so! Check out what Fidel has to say about the situation in Venezuela on the eve of the election: http://hcvanalysis.wordpress.com

  • What a nice concept, Magbana.

    As they say, misery loves company. So let the 26 million citizens of Venezuela join the ranks of the 11 million repressed citizens of Cuba.

    Oh yeah, I forgot; Cubans have free healthcare.

    Come to think of it, I’d give up my freedom of expression; my freedom to associate; my freedom to come and go as I please; my freedom to read whatever book I want; my freedom to surf the internet; I’d give it all up for a free check up every year.

    On second thought, I’ll keep my freedoms and take my chances with an HMO.
