In Ireland, there's a saying much used after a night's singing and drinking ... "Hell to the begrudgers!"
Those familiar with the term know the real phrase but the above will suffice. So Mr. Bottome can spurn out all the ideological nonsense he likes from his "editorial publishing house specializing in business affairs in Venezuela" but in my opinion, he is a classical begrudger in ignoring and denying cases of success in Socialist enterprises.
The Ana Soto Zamorian farm is only one example of a success story which still has to make inroads in marketing and other economic challenges but, at least, it is preparing its people to produce for Venezuela and advance towards a Socialist economy that offers an alternative to a Capitalism, which has been a decisive failure in Venezuela.
Is there anything wrong in that?
