The video accuses the Maduro government fudging the numbers? But, why? We know the success of socialized medicine all over the world, including Venezuela, right?

 

I am not going to infuse your rectum with the hazy byproduct of fire and tell you that public hospital prior to Chavez were amazing buildings full of the best and latest medical equipment. Nope, they were old edifications built anywhere from the 1930s to the most modern one built in the 1980s which I posted about a while back. They had to be constantly maintained, they had old equipment mixed with new and  sometimes they were short on some supplies, specially when there was a transition of power and monies got lost and landed on the pockets of the outgoing administrative personnel.

But this decay we saw in the video? The hospital was inaugurated in 1973 and by Venezuelan standards, it should still be a top of the line, working facility with only 47 years of use. By this time, it as well understood that the shell did not needed to be rebuilt to have a great hospital and that it was the equipment that would change.  Keep it working with water, electricity and good sewage and the rest can always be improved.

I wonder in which Swiss bank can we find the monies that were supposed to go to this hospital. Sure as hell it never showed up at that address.

  1. I recall that Hugo Chavez’s daughter, Maria Gabriela Chavez, was the richest Venezuelan just a few years ago. Through her entrepreneurship and skill (just kidding) she amassed over 4B USD, sitting in European bank accounts. I wonder how that came to be.

  2. If you want to see universal health care, single payer, socialized healthcare, whatever you want to call it, you are an idiot.

    End of story.
