.....and piggish regarding the welfare of "his" own people to opt for extreme arbitration exposure on multiple fronts while rejecting this deal (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) as the mining sector continues to tank and displaced miners unable to feed their families grovel for food?

I'm sorry but I simply cannot accept that.

If Venezuela refuses to approve this deal given 2\3 China involvement with their economy in a shambles (especially the mining sector) against the backdrop of the Caura Plan presently under implementation...then Hugo Chavez is truly insane.

It does not compute. I will ride this mutha F@cka right into the abyss.

They'll have to pry my shares out of my dead, lifeless fingers.
