I recently read an article in Reuters about our socialist neighbor from the South President Hugo Chavez who thinks that there was life on Mars but Capitalism must have killed them off! Not only is this an incredibly laughable comment to make but it shows how much this ding bat loves attention. He takes every opportunity to be interviewed by the media or to speak at any function that will have him.
I wonder if he actually prepared his remarks ahead of time or if he simply ran out of things to say and his mind wondering off in space was filled with these thoughts;
"I have always said, heard, that it would not be strange that there had been civilization on Mars, but maybe capitalism arrived there, imperialism arrived and finished off the planet,"
He believes that Capitalism is responsible for most of the problems in the world, including the loss of forests, rivers and the world’s water supply, to name a few. I feel for the Venezuelan people who are held captive by this mad man and his regime.
The real unfortunate truth is that he like most socialists don’t focus on people and human rights but instead worry about the planet, the plants and the animals first. They then invent things like global warming which has NO proven scientific fact to support that man has ANYTYING at all to do with it, if it exists at all.
If Mr. Chavez would take the time to learn world history he would discover that capitalism is not the enemy of the planet or people, on the contrary it is the protector of both. The true enemy is socialism, communism, Marxism, and most other ism’s, that ALL ultimately lead to the death and destruction of millions and millions of PEOPLE, who when they were gone could not protect the planet, the plants and the animals either!
It is not capitalism that nearly wiped out every Jew in Europe; it was not capitalism that slaughtered millions of people in the Middle East, Africa, China, Russia, the Ukraine and all of the former Soviet countries. It was socialism, communism and all of the other anti-capitalistic beliefs and doctrines. Capitalism means freedom and the framers of the US constitution understood that a free Republic form of government with capitalism would provide Americans with the ability to create grow and prosper in this great land.
Capitalism even gave us the ability to explore the oceans below and the heavens above, the moon and yes, even Mars. And the last time I checked the Mars Rover has still not seen any sign or ancient remnants of Taco Bell, McDonalds or even WalMart!
