My Own Opinion
What I think about this? Unbelievable and redicilous. Honestly, it's looking like Venezuela is a failed state. As of a result, there's just so many innocent people suffering because of this, and it's unfair. It looked like the country would have been so much under Hugo Chavez.

[Paredonia]

You do realise that you can choose both options in the poll don't you? That doesn't really make a lot of sense.

[Calimera II]

Argentina's newly elected president, Mauricio Macri, wants to expel Venezuela from Mercosur for violating human rights and freedoms.


And could you please tell us your opinion in the OP, otherwise this thread will probably be locked, and that would be a shame considering the importance of this topic.

Does it have to be either great or terrible? Can't the situation be good relative to the region and the history in some ways and bad in others?

[Geilinor]

Does it have to be either great or terrible? Can't the situation be good relative to the region and the history in some ways and bad in others?

It can, but Venezuela isn't doing well relative to the region.

Ding-ding, you have won a new Yugo!

So what? Venezuela is the next Yugoslavia?

Well, that's up to your opinion basically. As for the situation in the region, there are some good things, but a lot of bad things sadly (as of recent). Sure there maybe some good things in the past, but it's bad right now for it's future.

Ironic that Hugo Chavez hand-picked the very man who would destroy Venezuelan Socialism.

It's about time the Venezuelan people rose up against the oppressive regime.

Chavez is Venezuela's Tito, a popular leader whose death resultes in the collapse of his regime.

[Liberty and Linguistics]

Maduro is pond scum.

Not that Chavez was any better.

[Nerovia]

Maduro is pond scum.

Damn right. He's been doing a pretty shitty job. Now look where Venezuela's at. A complete laughing stock that has been condemned worldwide by Maduro's actions, and abuses basic human rights (like that article on what the new Aregentinian president is doing).

[Nerovia]

Chavez is Venezuela's Tito, a popular leader whose death resultes in the collapse of his regime.

And that sadly is what has truly happened.

Sadly? I'm glad the Socialists will be removed by a popular revolution, add Cuba's opening up and Socialism will soon be eradicated in South America, or at the very least will lose most of it's power.

Ugh, I prefer there to be socialists than ultra-liberal US puppets.

I prefer ultra-conservative puppets, mind you.

Liberal in economic sense. So that's the same as ultra-conservative governments. These ultra-conservative governments have destroyed a lot of countries in South America and I am glad they don't have any power anymore. Fortunately, tenacious actions in pursuit of remembrance, truth and justice have been taken by the population of these countries.

I agree with her.

Fascism is a lot better? Perón and his wife were fascist according to you?

Does it have to be either great or terrible? Can't the situation be good relative to the region and the history in some ways and bad in others?

Yea, the poll should definitely be changed.

Ironic that Hugo Chavez hand-picked the very man who would destroy Venezuelan Socialism.

Not that Chavez was any better.

Chavez was 100 times better than Maduro.

That's because Chavez knows about the people of Venezulea well. That's why so many Venezuelans liked him.

So why did he pick a complete dumbfuck to succeed him?

He, like Maduro, was corrupt, incompetent, and completely economically clueless. But, I suppose he didn't kill any opposition leaders.

He did, however, compare our country to the devil just so he wouldn't hit rock bottom in the semi-legitimate opinion polls.

1/10, would not elect.
