This better not f**king happen. No matter what type of dictator he is, he's still a dictator with full authority. I dont like that. This reminds me of Hitler.

Two years ago, my Spanish teacher warned me about this. Aren't there more than a few countries on the verge of turning to communism in South America?
This is dangerous. Especially because Venezuela is so close to the US and Cuba.

The end of the world is on december, 1012 according to the Mayan's calendar, i think.
Why do people strive for TOO MUCH power? Too much power will only fear people.

So far, Venezuela is on the verge of becoming a wanabe banana republic, although Chavez still lacks the power to enter the Authoritarian State phase. The worst case seems Venezuela turning into a pseudo-socialist oligarchy constructed around populism and protectionist economic measures, with Chavez as the head of the state.
The world isn't going to end in 12, 2012 either.

Anyways, about the end of the world, i dont really remember who predicted that. BUT, i know 2012 is a common date that people thought to be the end of the world.

The rise of communism dictators and countries was one of the causes of WWII (not to mention the brutality and genocide from Hitler).

I doubt Lenin nor Stalin had any immediate interest in conquering Europe, as opposed to the Germans wanting to recover what they lost after WWI. 98% of communist dictators appeared
after WWII ended, during the Cold War period.
