What Did You Expect?

So it seems that Evo Morales and his nutjob leftist government is running into a little trouble with nationalizing the entirety of Bolivia’s natural gas industry. Not only do they not have the cash flow to continue operating the newly nationalized firm, but they also lack the scientific and engineering expertise to manage and operate the gas fields (see article in The Economist - need subscription). This has effectively halted the nationalization of the industry, but production I'm guessing as well.

NO!!! SAY IT ISN’T SO!!!!

You mean a bunch of uneducated, leftist, professional
activists with no real education, job, work ethic or life
experience who now currently head up the Bolivian
government are not financially savvy enough to run a
multi-billion dollar industry???? Let alone have the
engineering know-how to maintain and run has fields???

How can that be???

Well, it isn't terribly shocking when you look at who now currently heads up the Bolivian government. Here's a list of the current cabinet ministers appointed by Morales. If you do a google-search of their names you'll get everything from a Maid Union chief who now heads THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT to a former guerilla terrorist who is now THE VICE PRESIDENT (and the leftist nutjobs in America here claim Cheney is the terrorist).

That may take too much time, so just read this article put out by the WSJ, it profiles a couple of these idiots, but you get the idea;

Bolivia is now headed by professional activists, protestors, community workers, and the occasional leftist terrorist, or as the left insists on calling them "progressive revolutionaries," which compose the majority of careers for most leftists, not just in Bolivia, but here in the US and around the world as well, and the results should not be shocking.

Then again, maybe this picture sums it up more efficiently than a background check unto Bolivia's new government. These people;



quite literally are the exact same people now in charge of the Bolivian gas industry. The idiocy is almost as staggering as the french labor protests.

Cripes.
