#1 The Chinese model works OK - for a time, at least - provided the country's gone through a period of absolute Marxism and tyranny producing a cowed and servile population. You can't travel straight to it, as Chavez's goons think they can. The Venezuelan people might resent being dictated to in every respect of their lives other than how they choose to spend their money, or becoming slave labour in the national interest.

As for orthodox Marxism, the world could do with a fresh reminder of socialism taken to its logical extreme.

#2 "The president's role is to make clear who is in charge, regardless of key players such as Major General Rangel Silva," León said.

The general stepped in it Wednesday.

For the tl;dr amonst youz,

The General said:
The National Armed Forces has no half way loyalties but full ones towards the people, one life project and one Commander in Chief.

This is closely related to the last of the Marked Brothers busted and held in Colombia awaiting extradition to either Ve or USA. Bet on Ve getting him, but the tapes are in Colombian and Swiss hands.
