    E.J. Viso can be a socialist, it's part of his culture, like female genital mutilation is part of certain tribal cultures, I don't agree with it, but E.J. doesn't get to vote in America and so he can have whatever views he likes.

    PDVSA stole equipment from an American company after that American company shut down production because the Venezuelan government refused to pay them. PDVSA asked the government to seize, in my opinion illegally seize, the assets and PDVSA sponsors Viso, E.J. takes moeny from PDVSA so tassetly at least he approves of their actions, and if there were another race in the south I'd seriously consider protesting in some fashion. If EJ and PDVSA are back next year I'll probably have a shirt made and probably put out some signs at my campsite at Barber. It's one thing if you want to be a socialist, that's not illegal just stupid, but another if your sponsor thinks its okay to seize American assets.

    Also, all those benefits that Denmark gives its citizens that you claim are "free" aren't. Denmark has the highest taxation of personal and corporate income in the world, some of their citizens are taxed at 63 percent, and their VAT tax is the highest in the world at 25 percent. I consider that failure.

    Your logic is seriously flawed.

    Honda has no connection to the Japanese government that led to WW2. In fact Honda's creation can be directly attributed to the dismantling of that Government post WW2.

    PDVSA has connections to the financial assistance to current Terrorist organizations.
