The stupid revolution or the revolution of the stupid?

February 5, 2003

It is difficult to explain what is going on in Venezuela. I just heard a tape of Chavez’ speech yesterday. In two minutes he said something like (I have no link to prove it) “We will revolutionize agriculture by having people grow things in the cities in every  empty space available……..We have a project to make vertical chicken coops in the cities since there is so little space available” 


Now, just two comments: Since there is so much empty space in the countryside, why grow in the city? Second, how about the health probelm of chicken coops all over the city?. Finally for those abroad, the Venezuelan Government owns over 50% of the land in the country. Truly a revolution of the stupid. .
