21st Century Socialism Is 18th Century Capitalism. Michael Rowan. Special for El Universal www.eluniversal.com

Because of the world price of oil – an essential cog in the Global Wealth Creation machine – Chavez has received a $35 billion windfall profit in the last year, which added to the $15 billion from a year earlier he has used to destabilize Bolivia and other country targets on his list. As long as the price of oil is very high, he will apply 18th century savage capitalism under the rubric of 21st century state socialism. Karl Marx accurately criticized the failure of capitalism for creating private monopolies and magnates along with a mass of proletariat – property-less – workers. If Marx was alive today, what would he see in Venezuela? The magnate Chavez owns a personal, private monopoly of greater wealth and power than anything that existed in the 18th century, while a majority of Venezuelans are poor, property-less and under-employed. Adam Smith might laugh at Chavez as an aberration, but Karl Marx would be enraged by what Chavez is doing in the name of socialism. Any comment?

What Chavez is doing is Norwegianism not real Socialism. He has never claimed to be doing Socialism in the traditional sense. He is guided by Simon Bolivar and seeks to unite his region against the evils we in the North perpetrate against them. This is a long time coming, the US particularly, has abused Latin America for many years. The people has awakened.

VIVA CHAVEZ!

p.s. Adam Smith, who no neo-cons have ever even read, was very much againt the idea of a corporate welfare state like we live in today. He was against the unbridalled free flow of capital also. His idea of free markets depended on stationary capital not a global market, infiltrated by protecting government welfare (to corporations) and the undercutting of the market by capital flight like what we do today.

Sennelier Watercolors $13.43 Dick Blick is proud to present the complete palette of French watercolors from Sennelier of Paris. Sennelier was founded in 1887 in a shop across from the Louvre, just steps from the School of Beaux Arts. Gustave Sennelier mixed oil colors and watercolors for some of the most notable painters of the time including Cézanne, Picasso, Bonnard, Gauguin, Dali, Modigliani, Soutine, Degas, Monet, and Kandinsky, as well as for nearby students. Although Sennelier still grinds each pigment and its medium on a surface of granite, to obtain the proper consistency, the entire Sennelier line has been updated to reflect 21st century advances in pigment composition, resulting in the lightfastness desired by today’s painters. These rich and intense colors are extremely fine and luminous, well worth their cost. Colors are available in two tube sizes — 10 ml (0.33 oz) and 21 ml (0.71 oz).
