Explaining why he opposes the socialist policies of Correa, Mayor Jaime Nebot correctly observes that Correa's government:
Is a repulsive copy of that failed scheme that Chavez has imposed for the misfortune of Venezuelans. A nation like Venezuela that could and should swim in abundance, suffocates in misery and poverty.As Lady Thatcher wisely said, "The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money [to spend]." Hugo Chavez is rapidly running out in Venezuela and Rafael Correa is dumb enough to want to take Ecuador down the same ruinous road.
It is good to see there are many wise Ecuadorians who oppose him.
