Chavez and his policies will drive Venezuela into oblivion. The "technology" he wishes to have shared with local businesses is owned by the auto makers. The concept of private property is difficult for dictators and socialist. The car companies should pull out or the people of Venezuela should keep the car makers and dispose of Chavez.

Lets see, our Govt owns GM but they are the socialists? Given the latest eminent domain rulings, we're not doing much better Paul.

Locan, I think we are doing much better tha Venezuela, but I agree with your point on eminent domain. Was it Texas that recently passed a State Law that reverses the direction of eminent domain in their state?
