Bold Bolivia Burglarizes Business
We saw how Chavez in Venezuela has pulled the wool over the eyes of many of Venezuela’s poor, promising the riches of the oil fields and the riches of food distributors. Now Bolivia is getting in on the “nationalization” act, better known as theft, turning private businesses into public enterprises, and here, without so much as compensating the current owners. Taking what does not belong to you, what belongs to others is theft, plain and simple. You may not like the way that someone else acquired their present holdings, but unless it was by out and out theft, “nationalization” is nothing but government sponsored theft.Â
