Under the Chavez Presidency,
Venezuela was not in debt to international bankers.

Venezuela did not borrow cash from the International Monetary Fund for any "structural adjustments".

Venezuela used oil money for social services, and to assist other Latin American countries in developing their OWN resources independent from the IMF and predatory Global Corporations.

The Ruling Elite 1% are forced to demonize Chavez because
he set a very bad example for the developing world
by keeping those resources for the people of Venezuela,
and OUT of the hands of the Global Corporations and the Global Ownership Class.
