There were riots in Caracas when Carlos Andrés Pérez moved to drop his economic bomb on the poor. So many murdered at his command by national military paid for by the taxes of the poor themselves. Mass graves, even.

Macri decided he would learn from history, get the jump on them by having the police already in place BEFORE he dropped his economic bomb. Dirty guy. He's going to be short several dozen police now.

Thank you, so much, for this information which we will NOT be hearing from our own corporate right-wing owned "news" media.

The truth always comes out, but it takes so much longer when the right wing tries to bury it too deep for anyone to know.
