CARACAS, VENEZUELA – For Venezuela’s deeply anti-American socialist regime, it would have seemed a point of pride that malaria was well control for decades.

You are utterly clueless about the political history of Venezuela and the role of the Oligarchy, patterns of land ownership, the exploitation of oil by multinational corporations, and the response to the same in recent years. The seeds for the destruction of the nation state has always not been socialism, but a corrupt Oligarchy which continues 19th century colonialism and exploitation of the citizens. This coupled with the collapse of oil revenues has created a difficult time for the nation. The answer is democracy, fair elections, and vigilance on those who have terrorized the country for 200 years.

Well, at least Lame Dork poster Markle isn't blaming President Obama for Venezuela's problems!
