Salon (yes, that Salon My Bad, this is actually a blog that has nothing to do with the web site. Stand corrected; this is a site devoted to things Venezuelan) piles on to Sean Penn's best friend in South America (Hugo what's his name) and lays out the economics and social destructiveness of the Venezuelan dictator. Many financial sites have blasted him but without specifics. This piece has more specifics than the law allows. A far more detailed view of the country has been around for a while and it's here. Bottom line: hate can only carry you so far, after that is gone then what? Also included is the discussion of how long the poor can be conned. A couple of good pieces.
