	<description>Observations focused on the problems of an underdeveloped country, Venezuela, with some serendipity about the world (orchids, techs, science, investments, politics) at large. A famous Venezuelan, Juan Pablo Perez Alfonzo, referred to oil as the devil&#039;s excrement. For countries, easy wealth appears indeed to be the sure path to failure. Venezuela might be a clear example of that.</description>

This is HIS game, this is what HIS does better, how he can get VOTE, and we will have more of this A LOT until Sept26. How and Why?? I really dont know.

Another subjet, the oppo candidate are: insecurity, corruption, supplies, electricity, now food poison, etc etc etc a hundred of them.

Lets get to the bridge and see if we pass them, it will be a big error statr talking about candidate presidence.

See this, obout the dollar, and the casas de bolsa situation, ask normal peopole in the street, is his thier fault even if they dont have any idea what is a permuta transaction, becasue the confrontation and the propaganda.

		<description><![CDATA[It wouldn&#039;t surprise me that the latest thrashing of OAP, Mendoza and attacks to Polar are really diversionary (a &quot;smoke screen&quot;) for some other activities happening in parallel, out of the public eye.

		<description><![CDATA[Canuck, the importers will be able to &quot;prove&quot; it.  I&#039;m not going to guess how much the new &quot;special form&quot; will cost, but it will be possible.  Just another way of making it more difficult to do business, without any benefit to the country at large, which will end up driving GDP down and unemployment up.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here in Margarita the merchants are becoming desperate. The summer vacations are coming &amp; they are unable to order new merchandise as no one knows if they will have the $$ to pay for it.

As was explained to me it&#039;s no longer going to be easy simply to import because when the new merchandise arrives you will need to prove where the $$ came from. If they didn&#039;t come from official sources then it&#039;s unlikely your containers will be allowed through.

This is causing a deep level of uncertainty &amp; it&#039;s probable that many smaller business people will have to close.

Many businesses had given up on CADIVI do to the length of time they took (if ever) and the mountains of paperwork. They were using the permuta market to get their $$, a system which worked with minimal hurdles.

Even those that dealt with national distributors had to pay in $$ for the merchandise. The current unofficial rate is going through the clouds.

If the new system is not as open as the one it is replacing, which I don&#039;t expect it will be, then the shelves will be bare this August.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There needs to be a viable, charismatic, alternative for chavez, ready to step up to the plate on short notice to recover and rebuild what is left of this country. 

If you think this replacement will be made as a result of a free, fair and recognized 2012 election, you are not barking up a tree. You are howling at the moon! 

With the mad man&#039;s increasingly aggressive actions, do you think he will allow or recognize a fair election representative of the peoples choice?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The &quot;anonymous&quot; troll above doesn&#039;t really deserve to be dignified with a response, but it did remind me of an old joke:

A man jumps off the top of the Empire State Building.  As he passes the thirtieth floor someone inside asks him, &quot;How&#039;s it going?&quot;  The falling man responds, &quot;So far; so good.&quot;]]></description>

MO

Are there any high profile tangible results to be observed at this time from the lack of available US dollars last few weeks?  Something doesn&#039;t feel right here.  What gives?

Don&#039;t get me wrong- I don&#039;t support arresting brokers; I&#039;m just curious to why the sky hasn&#039;t fallen in if what the gov did was such a big deal.]]></description>
