It may be fine now but when the children of the DR come of age they will have to pay back a herendous debt to Venezuela thanks to the hard and corrupt work of the present administration.

The officials will a be long gone but the debt will remain and have to be repaid.

thank you Chavez, i wounder what GC has to say about this

JimHarrington or JOSEAN?????

Guess that PLD and Leonel Fernandez victory hurt Your feelings???

Jim Harrington=Josean

Call off the missing persons report

no he is still in a galaxy far far away..... when he will re enter is anybodies guess

rubi and juan not possible harrington = josean......Josean was often funny and intelligent...where as jimi conceals these two things very well

take that away and what is left ?....not a pretty picture

hey chill whats happening man......hugo will soon be in even more trouble as price of his low quality oil begins to plummet

What Jim said is 100% correct. We pay at the same price but finance half. Have you any idea how big that debt is already? Just think about all that gas sold at the pump and the government keeps half as a loan when we already paid at the pump!

yea whatever

"It may be fine now but when the children of the DR come of age they will have to pay back a herendous debt to Venezuela thanks to the hard and corrupt work of the present administration."

As long as oil stays above $100 a barrel, the DR under Petrocaribe, the Venezuela intiative, pays 50% up front in cash and finances the remaining 50% of the market price at 1 percent interest. In addtion, the remaining 50% can be paid with goods and services, especially agricultural commodities, like chickens, bananas, and sugar or by medical, educational, construction services.

Imperialists institutions (IMF) through fees, charges, tricks, and lies impose anywhere from 8% to 23% interest on the principal that is borrowed whether its 50% or 100% of the market price.

So, the question is: Does the DR want to pay 1% as a finance charge to Venezuela OR between 8%-23% as a finance charge to the gouging US imperialists.

GOPs want the DR to pay the higher imperialist price.

US reactionaries, the GOPs, want the world to believe that Hugo Chavez introduced the use of credit in oil purchases.

Oil has been purchased on credit before Chavez was born.

The question is not whether purchases are on credit, but what are the terms of the credit ... whether 1% or 10% or 20% or 30%.

Petrocaribe says 1%, but the US imperialists say they'll charge as much as they can get out of the sucker.

Imperialists, especially US imperialists, use credit as a debt trap that can never be repaid.

When the default inevitably occurs, the imperialists demand that countries like the DR hand over their sovereignty to the White House or be denied further imperialist loans.

Imperialist refinancing, rescheduling, and restructuring of the foreign debt ... while the transfer of soveriegnty of the debtor country to the US regime occurs ... only makes the imperial debt trap harder to escape from.

Even if the Shell deal is done, the DR is still going to need either a new, much larger refinery or a tremendous upgrading and expansion of the present one, a refinery that can process not just light sweet crude, but the heavy stuff from Venezuela.

Light sweet has definitely peaked.

LF closely watched the 16-month Venezuelan-Cuban renovation for under $300 million and the December 2007 start-up of the Cienfuegos, Cuba refinery that the Soviets never completed, now operating with Venezuelan technology with a refining capacity of 60,000 barrels per day, about twice the Shell refinery in the DR. Cienfuegos is now expanding its refining capacity to 120,000 barrels per day by May 2009.

Over the objections of his US pilots, LF even flew to Cienfuegos, Cuba to see the December 2007 refinery start-up at 60,000 barrels with his own eyes.

The imperialists want refineries on their soil (Citgo) or in their colonies (Virgin Islands) or in the colonies of their NATO allies (Aruba).

communist stooge you mean to say the only refineries that can process nutty hugos low grade stuff are American refineries?.....what a pity....to have all your eggs in one basket....I hear the store shelves in Caracas are starting to look like you know where ....and I dont mean Madison ave.

LF has tried to woo an inflated "3 billion dollar" refinery out of the Saudis, the Russians, and the US imperialists, but they are all cagey about the construction of a new refinery in the DR.

LF even played along with Vicente Fox, the Mexican reactionary, who talked empty-headedly for two years about a grand "Central American refinery."

Since Mexico, the world's sixth largest oil producer, imports half of its gasoline for the want of refining capacity, everybody knew that Fox was a buffoon.

soon it will be curtains for hugo....oil down.... dollar up..... and hugo out on his fat behind ....he can take "Danny the Diddler" with him

Is there ANY person, people, government that you DO support ?
Even as a "new guy" , I view your posts as insulting, misinformed, hate-mongering garbage.
I dread the day that the Dominican People begin to think the same way that you do.
The loss of income from the non-Domincan people that you seem to despise would ruin your economy faster than you can spit out another insult !

oooo

I support all patriotic regimes whether they're bourgeois or proletarian.

It's possible that the "Dominican People began to think the same way that you do" long before I thought it.

But clearly the mass of the filthy "elite" of the DR consists of yankeephiles, people who suffer from a terrible and an incurable disease.

Your extortionist threats ("the loss of income" and so forth) will ... no doubt ... work on the weak-minded "elite."

CarlosFranco: I'm on my way to help our cause, Greetings and respect towards You dear brother...........

Belial, I like to read what you have to say you are very intelligent, your post or thought out and clearly posted. Unlike the those that choose to use propaganda.
And redundant words like “splat” , close minded fools who most likely have never read a book.

for you chill.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rN2VqFPNS8w

well said, chillaxin. like him or not, Belial always has his facts before he makes a post. some fools just hate it when facts get in the way. that puts them out of their depth. that is why they respond by making up schoolyard nicknames, which they use redundantly. if people read Belial without an emotional bias,they will learn something. it is up to them to interpret the facts to suit their particular bias. they might see things his way, or they might not. but facts are facts, and no amount of childish banter can change that fact!
