Corrupt Capitalist Assault on Socialism is Gaining Ground in Latin America and Beyond.

The recent election in Venezuela has shown that governmment control is moving back towards a corrupt form of capitalism due to an economic and media war forced upon Venezuelans over the past months and recent years.

Venezuela does rely heavily on oil. It has the largest reserves of oil in the world. The recent oil price collapse has obviously affected the income for the government recently. Over recent years the government has used the oil to help build a million much needed homes, develop a national free to use health service as well as many other useful social projects.

Recent celebration- 15 years of socialism in Venezuela
Millions have been taken out of poverty since the current socialist government, under the leadership of Hugo Chavez took power ,- in a democratic election. The government has won numerous elections since the first. Including one led by Nicholas Maduro, currently in charge who replaced Hugo Chavez after his death.

However, during the whole leadership of this socialist government, the right wing opposition has been trying to destabilize the government through any means possible, whether legal or illegal. This has included a coup attempt and kidnapping of Hugo Chavez.

When 'referring to right wing opposition' in Venezuela you are not talking about an individual or one or two individuals who think they have a better way forward for the people of Venezuela. Although it may appear this way to many Venezuelans.

The right wing opposition in Venezuela comprises people who under the guise of 'business people' who want to take back control of Venezuela's oil and other natural resources. The United States is known to have financed the 'opposition' since the socialist government took power 15 years ago. That is the financing of political parties. Financing destbilization in the form of staging protests and violence. The staging of the protests and violence was said to be by ordinary Venezuelans taking action them selves...by the U.S. financed media companies, who of course never blamed right wing corruption!

More recent actions by the right wing corrupt capitalists have involved........
1...Creating shortages.
The right wing capitalists are liasing with the distribution net work including supermarket chains in order to create an illusion that there are shortages of products. The illusion is completed by liasing with the previously mentioned right wing controlled media companies who blame the shortages on the socialist government.

2...'Economic Sanctions'
Venezuela's currency has struggled under this government. However a conspiracy by capitalists  who want to regain control of the oil only have to liase with the financial sector,- banks, hedge funds, equity firms etc to sell the currency and cause it to crash in value. This again gets blamed on failings of the government by the rigged media. Ofcourse the stock markets are a legacy of capitalism. The right of hedge funds to buy and sell currency needs to be outlawed as it gives any person with influence in the financial sector the ability to terrorise a nation economically through causing at will a currency to collapse. But ofcourse the media will tell the Venezuelan people that the markets are afraid of this socialist government, instead of the truth I have here explained. Similar excuses will be given for the lack of private investment in Venezuela when ofcourse. This may well be happening but it is not through actions of the government. It is through actions being taken against the government by the capitalists and media in order to enlarge the illusion of failures of the government.

3...Creation of Disturbances and Protests on the Streets.
These have increased since Chavez's death. Financed by corrupt capitalists, corporations and the U.S. Disturbances and protests are created whilst the controlled media journalists often appear to be in the middle of them when they occur......Yet these protests had been actually been few and far between, the right wing media made them big news. However the cosistence over time with this tactic has clearly had effect in  the lead up to the latest election.

4...Control of Main Stream Media.
As explained, the controlled media is the icing on the cake of the actions already mentioned. By misinterpreting what is going on, Venezuelans are now turning away from their socialist government and are given no alternative but to go with the media....To accept the corrupt capitalists will be able to stop the shortages, the unrest on the streets and provide finance for the health service which is struggling due to lack of cash. And improve the economy in general. In short, all the problems the corrupt capitalsists had been causing in the first place.!!

This is the current situation in Venezuela. But socialist governments and potential future socialist influenced governmnents are currently having a tough time, not just in Latin America but also in Europe and Africa.

In the recent election in Argentina the Socialist governmment lost and will be replaced by the right wing opposition. Their new leader has promised that the relationship between the U.S. would change and that Venezuela (under the socialist government) would be 'expelled from regional fora' and from regional co-operation.- In recent years the current left wing government had been attacked by the media in much the same way as in Venezuela and similar destabilization tactics have been used.!  I've been aware of this for some time. But this problem has not been high-lighted in Argentina as much as it has been in countries such as Venezuela and Cuba. Where there have been many campaigners against the problems of destabilization by capitalsists in those countries and around the world.

The underlying evidence is that where ever there is a socialist government, or a potential threat of a socialist party taking power, there will be a stealth destabilization force ready and waiting to attack it.

We have seen Greece recently deprived of their socialist leadership. Problems that the government were blamed for were problems caused by the previous government and the financial crisis. Strangely the Greece socialist government had been told as a condition of bail outs that it would have to sell off or privatise many public services. These are the same kind of policies that the right want all over South America. Basically, without going into any depth, privatisation enables banks, hedge funds, private equity firms and the international financial sector in general, to get on the payroll of the privatised services and to put them in debt to the same financial businesses. They end up receiving fortunes in tax payers revenue there after.....or atleast ..Until some one comes along to renationalise them! -Which is what Hugo Chavez did in Venezuela 15 years ago...........

....And if you want to find a reason why the U.S. treated Hugo Chavez as the Grim reaper...Continuously referring to him as a dictator till his death....then the potential to renantionalise privatised industry is the perfect reason.....atleast as they see it. Renationalisation of industry takes away potential earnings for banks and the financial sector in general.......However these are earnings they have not earnt or done any thing to deserve. An easy fortune lost.

A quick mention on the sacred bloody stock markets here.......If privatised services and companies were being renationalised on a regular basis, imagine effects on the values of these companies and their share values in the stock markets. Also the effects on bonds- millions and often billions of dollars borrowed against the companies. Surely many could potentially lose their investments as well as the cash lent by the banks for any bonds during a procewss of renatonalisation.

Back to destabilisation of Socialism by corrupt capitalists....
Here in the U.K. the Labour party has taken on a new leader in Jeremy Corbyn. In the party's last term in power, the party proved to be little different from the right wing Conservative Party. Supporting privatisation and a vast negative influence from the financial sector which did little to prevent the financial crisis and probably encouraged it. However Jeremy Corbyn is a socialist. But you can tell this by the reaction of the majority of the  main stream media!

I conclude therefore that the 'Socialism Destabilization Force' is not just attacking Latin America but is also in Africa, Europe and is here in the U.K.

TTIP; Is EFILA a think tank or just a tank to reinforce the I.S.D.S. element of T.T.I.P.?

Protest at EFILA conference. Senate House, University College, London.

On 23rd January 2015 at Senate House, London there was what appeared to be a mobilization of reinforcements on the I.S.D.S. (Investor State Dispute Settlement) front of T.T.I.P.- 'Trans Atlantic Trade & Investment Partnership',-often referred to as the 'EU-US Trade Deal'

The use of the word trade deal is used very loosely. The phrase is little more than window dressing something that the public would otherwise turn against if it wasn't for the positive spin that the phrase gives to this legalised corruption. Trade deal being something people associate with creation of jobs and wealth for every one. In reality it is about taking away our rights where they may stand in the way of profits of corporations.


Various political groups and activist organisations from across Europe and the U.S. are against the deal being finalised. The most controversial element of the deal being the part known as I.S.D.S.- Investor State Dispute Settlement.

TTIP is all about giving corporations a free reign over governments regardless of any problems the corpoations may cause. In fact it's about keeping governments and their public out of the way as the corporations steam roll along on their corrupt capitalist path to huge profits.

The ISDS - Investor State Dispute Settlement mechanism in TTIP- TransAtlantic Trade & Investment Partnership is to give power to corporations to sue governments who make political decisions which have the effect of reducing profits to corporations. -Many of the opponents to TTIP believe that TTIP is a cloak simply to hide what is the actual objective of TTIP- That is the part which allows corporations power over governments- ie I.S.D.S. 

The many thousands of oponents to to TTIP and more specifically I.S.D.S. have had a recent victory. I.S.D.S was suspended from the agreement by the European Commission due to the many protests against it. But a suspension is only temporary and is not a permanent removal! But the Inaugural conference of EFILA- "The European Federation for Investment Law and Arbitration" which took place last Friday, the 23rd January is proof that the battle is far from over.

EFILA Think tank?!
EFILA, we are supposed to believe is a 'think tank' - which supposedly has been drafted in to clear up the apparent confusion for the European commission and us the people. How nice of them to do this for us.

However, EFILA is comprised of representatives of Law firms who would be taking on cases which would be brought about by the Investor State Dispute Settlement mechanism. The I.S.D.S. which we have all been told has been suspended from T.T.I.P.! EFILA it would seem have been formed in order to carry out the work not of a 'think tank' that is to look after everybody's interests, but to push through the original proposals of the agreement which would leave our governments helpless in defending people from the actions of corporations.

Linda Kaucher, the founder of 'STOP TTIP' made a speech explaining what was going on in Senate house. Her employment has involved working on various international 'trade deals'. Many of which, she says have similar types of motives as TTIP. The ISDS mechanism surfaces when ever these deals are introduced.....Governments are being sued right now by corporations basically for policies which the governments have formed to protect their people.-Where those changes in policy have reduced profits of businesess.

TTIP Oposition in Europe
"'Investor State Dispute Settlement' is a blatant attempt by corporations to ransack public resources , aided by the sort of people attending this EFILA conference."

"The lawyers attending this meeting today make big money from Investor State Dispute Settlements (ISDS) cases, whether acting as adjudicators, acting for corporations or defending states in these cases."

"Their back ground work is seeking out agreements, often signed up years ago, to find opportunities to sue governments, regardless of how that will hit a country's health or education budgets.
Even when governments successfully defend these cases they have to pay millions in costs to these lawyers. Thus these lawyers are like leeches on public finance. Sucking the public money that is there to be used for the public good. A disgrace to the law profession and to humanity.
The EU public has clearly stated  in response to the EU Commission ISDS Consultation, that it does not want ISDS at all. -Now those charged with carrying out the will of the people must act accordingly!"

"There is an opportunity, in law, to end existing member state agreements (Bilateral Investment Agreements) that have ISDS. That opportunity must be taken; Not the fact of existing agreements used as a reason to sign up to ISDS provision in ever more far reaching agreements like TTIP as is currently happening. ISDS must be kept out of any new so-called 'trade agreements'. -Even as the fight against these corporate agreements being signed at all, continues."


So the fight against TTIP and ISDS goes on.


But beware of 'think tanks' as they may not be there for our benefit, and may well turn and fire at the people who we are led to believe they are representing.
