"Frog Cooking" in Venezuela

How did the richest Latin American country with a unchangeable democracy become governed by cryptic dictatorship by the poorest (beside Haiti) country on earth? There were not specified spectacular moments in this transformation as turning off the tv signal or the forceful takeover of the prosecutor's office. Everything happened gradually – almost unparalleledly. To this day there is simply a parliament, elections are held, opposition parties are held, and about 85% of the mass media, called "medias of hatred", belongs... to the opposition (!).

In January 1966, the Soviets convened a gathering in Cuba called the "Transcontinental Conference" attended by 538 delegations of communist structures from around the world. At this meeting, it was decided to set up a network of training centres for staff training. As early as October, a hotel was established in the suburbs of Havana, ready to receive 1,500 students. The head of the full program was General KGB Koczygin.

Latin America was a grateful area of communist agitators' activities due to unfair ownership relations and the social tensions involved. That's why Fidel Castro sent his combat companion Che Guevara to Bolivia, where local peasants, alternatively of making a revolution, killed an agitator. The expendable leader was "canonized" in Cuba – there were plenty of his monuments, and millions of fools around the planet bought T-shirts with the image of this highly disgusting kind who had the habit of personally executing "enemies of the people".

Legend has it that the future Venezuelan leader – Hugo Chavez found books in an abandoned and holed-up car bullet that may have belonged to guerrillas. Marks, Lenin and Mao Zedong were there, and he got so confused by the reading...
In fact, Chavez was a trained postgraduate of the Cuban "school", as a "graduate" subversive returned to Venezuela and organized a coup in 1992. The assassination failed and Chavez went to prison, but after any time the incumbent president pardoned him and Chavez... won the election.
Venezuela of the 1980s was having a hard time due to the fact that president Reagan, in consultation with Saudi Arabia, decided to importantly reduce oil prices in order to reduce the gross of the USSR.
In Venezuela, this situation has caused a drastic fall in national income and many social problems. The global Monetary Fund recommended "budgetary discipline", which is cutting social spending. Liberal reforms have increased disparities between the mediocre majority and the rich minority. A mess-stricken electorate missed a strong leader who would clean up the country (a striking resemblance to Hitler!).
In order to avoid association with Cuba, Chavez always refrained from communism saying that unlike his friend Fidel Castro, he believed in God. Therefore, he created a "bolivarian movement", which is neither communism nor capitalism, but "third way". This road in the long word proved to be a dead end (how do we know that?).

Initially, the "Bolivarian Revolution" was successful – poorness was reduced by setting up thousands of inexpensive canteens to aid the hungry. A government-funded wellness care strategy and free university education were introduced. Chavez brought 50,000 doctors and teachers from Cuba to fight illiteracy and advanced baby mortality. This besides helped Cuba, which was on the verge of falling down after the dissolution of the USSR. Cuba educates immense numbers of specialists (far above their needs) and exports them to another Spanish countries. It is simply a form of "soft" promotion of ideas to good communists.

In order to implement the reforms efficiently, the anticipation of temporarily ruling through decrees has been pushed through. A referendum was held in 2005 to change the constitution. The changes provided for submission to the president of the Central Bank, reduced working day to 6 hours, reduced election age to 16 years, and the anticipation of unlimited moving for president in subsequent term.
Although government opponents accused the president of overcentralizing power and criticized him for populism and "money-releasing," Chavez won the election 3 more times (his bodyguard and successor – Maduro had already made election forgeries). Gradual nationalisation of successive sectors of the economy has caused marketplace failures and rising inflation, and agricultural improvement has hampered food production by generating hunger. There were demonstrations and protests. The authorities responded by expanding police and army, as well as Russian advisors with their valuable experience in "optimizing" the activities of these formations.
The protection of president Maduro, removed by the Americans, consisted of 40 Cubans, and 32 of them died in action. As confirmed in an interview in CNN by a typical of the Cuban government, they had a state funeral, and for their work was paid by the Cuban government (as part of global aid?).

Many years of millions of demonstrations in the cities of Venezuela did not origin a change of government – only the joining of troops to protesters could endanger the dictator, and it is impossible in the russian kind government with "political officers" in all unit and police force with paid informers. Only the mechanical removal of the dictator could aid the population, so now there was a chance to improve the destiny of Venezuelans.
