back in the day the CIA black ops would take care of this

Actually, it'd be more like Special Forces. Let's send Chuck Norris for another Delta Force.

Chavez begins to ruin his country.

Chavez also alluded to Jesus, saying: "I swear by Christ ? the greatest socialist in history."
😕 WTF
He said a commission was being formed to oversee proposed constitutional reforms, including one that would allow "indefinite re-election" by doing away with presidential term limits that bar him from running again in 2012.
Translation: he's working on becoming dictator of Venezuela.
With oil profits booming and his popularity high, Chavez seems to be in step with many Venezuelans even as spooked investors rushed to sell off Venezuelan stocks in the affected companies after his nationalization announcement Monday.
First elected in 1998, Chavez has cemented his popularity by using a bonanza in oil profits to set up state-funded cooperatives and fund social programs from subsidized grocery stores to free universities.
It will be a rude awakening when oil profits dry up.
"They want to nationalize everything. This is the beginning," said Marisela Leon, a 47-year-old engineer who said she might consider leaving the country because she sees difficult times ahead.
In other news, Venezuela no longer has engineers in it's population...
But most of Chavez's largely poor supporters remain optimistic. Miguel Angel Martinez, a 52-year-old street vendor, said the president "has dedicated himself to studying communist, socialist and democratic models and has taken the best of those models."

Orlando Vera, a 63-year-old window washer, said nationalization makes sense for companies that serve the public interest. "Everything the man is doing is good," he said, adding that his economic situation has improved under the Venezuelan leader.
...and only street vendors and window washers are left.

How is the U.S. any different?

We're working hard on making sure there will only be window washers and street vendors here too so what's the difference who the "leader" is?

Problem is I don't see qualified engineers leaving the US.

No, it's only the engineering JOBS that are leaving the US in DROVES. :roll:

The OP used Engineers as example, so I used it too.

Job outlook for Engineers in the US

lol pwnage


Nominate for 2007?

This is hardly the first time that dmcowen spewed drivel from his rear end...and definitely not the first time he got owned by reality. I like to think of him as the Sean Penn token guy from Team America: World Police... "theyre corporations... and they are all corporationey"
