12. Maybe the answer is simple: Chavez is dead?

I get the feeling what goes on over the recent period of time isn't Chavez' ideas. I looked it up and Chavez went to have a cancer operation in early December. He never spoke in public after that. I think it's safe to say he was zonked with morphine and other medicines because he had terminal cancer. So...I am venturing a guess what goes on over the last 6 months or so is being decided by others. I got the feeling this Maduro isn't a very sharp operator, so there must be some sort of executive committee figuring things out. And this fits, because if they can cut crime this easy it's plain to see before it was completely out of control and had very low priority. Which tells me maybe Chavez let it be that way to give his heir an easy fix. I bet Chavez may have caused the toilet paper shortage too, this way Maduro can buy paper, hand it out, and become a hero?
