UPDATE: The Four R's blog makes clear the socialism that has and will continue to impede Venezuelan production of anything, even its major earner.

  2. Even the Sean Penns & The Guardian-readers must be struggling to excuse their pin-up boy now, eh? Nah, probably just reverting to type by ignoring it all.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
