43. I disagree with one point you make:

Chavez should be talking about people in the US.

The incredible polarization of wealth in the US, our drive for empire to further that polarization in the US and everywher, and the greedy values that undergird that drive are destabilizing for the whole world.

It's in Venezuela's interest, and the interest of the rest of the world, to talk about doing things which reduce the huge gaps in opportunity, happiness, and wealth in the US. If you're trying to reduce the polarization of wealth anywhere in the world, it makes sense to talk about it in the US.
