found the same article, but with this photo:
Sporting free T-shirts, Sebastiana Chavez, second
row, and others are bused to an eye clinic for a
post-operation checkup. Venezuelan ophthalmologists
have operated on thousands from 18 countries who
either could not afford or had no access to eye surgery.
DAVID ROCHKIND PHOTOS: FOR THE CHRONICLEIt really is so right-wing, isn't it, for the idiot oligarchy to attack these treatments as being "political?" Sure they're political, unless the Venezuelan government went to the trouble to arrange these things anonymously for the eye patients.
If that happened, they wouldn't understand the process, and how they came to get their vision back. How stunningly stupid.
The Venezuelan oligarchy HAD its chance all those long years, going back 200 years or more, to take a different path in its treatment of the poor from whom they derive their great wealth. They chose not to bother themselves with sharing. SCREW THEM.
In the meantime, time marches on, and these people are going to get a measure of well-being back they thought they had lost. You have to be a spectacular right-winger to begrudge that.
Thanks again, Joanne98, for a great bit of news.
