I remember the anticipation I felt when you Venezuelans had to vote on the referendum last year. That he attempted to constitutionally establish himself as a de facto dictator must have been a frightening prospect for you.

Dictators dont get beat in elections.

 

 

You're right, Venezuela is not a dictatorship yet, I'm here talking bad things about my government, I'm still free to study whatever pleases me and choose the job I want. But don't be fooled, Chavez is just playing it safe, he's just making slow changes so he can control everything, in the future private TV channels that don't agree with him will be closed because the government won't renew their licenses to keep operating (one has already been banned for over the air broadcasting), Chavez is nacionalizing a lot of companies (I'm not against nacionalizing companies that are of public interest, I agree with some of the nacionalizations he has made, but I find a problem when the government has the monopoly over a certain industry) and the free speech here is not the one we should have, because although you can say anything you want you also have to face consequences like not being able to get a job in public offices if you say bad things about the government. In every public office there's a picture frame of Chavez on the walls and the uniforms are all red!
