3. 1st thing to note, the article is about Maduro selecting his cabinet

Not very controversial news in itself. Not sure why you are offended. Are you saying that Maduro hasn't selected a new cabinet?


2nd. The pic is an additon on my part although I didn't do the original photoshop. Not very observant on your part to suggest the photo was actually part of the story. If Venezuela actually had a functioning justice system, some or all of these thieves would in fact be investigated and imprisoned.

3rd. You'll have to take up the headline with the AP. However, I would note that even though Maduro is chavez' bitch, a new president could select a different cabinet that didn't have the same people in prominent positions.

4th. The article is about Maduros cabinet. 20-30% inflation is horrible

5th. The drought was like 3 years ago. The blackouts have everything to do with lack of maintenance and investment.

6th So Venezuelans are happy with blackouts?

You'll have to take up your complaints with AP. Your post will be read by very few people while the AP post will be read by thousands upon thousands so you should focus your attention on AP. If a government spokeman was features, we would simply hear more lies about sabotage and other nonsense.
