Venezuela's oil coup-strike-lockout for the rich.
In 1974 80% of oil income went to the state. Today 80% of Venezuelan oil income goes to the rich, and to "operating costs." Only 20% goes to the state.
Chavez reforms will help reverse this in January 2003. This is why the
coup-plotters are in such a hurry to overthrow the fairly-ELECTED Chavez
government, to prevent these reforms, and to reverse others already-implemented.
Reforms that help the poor and lower middle class.
Massive corporate-media disinformation, destabilization campaign going on inside Venezuela.

The vast majority of Venezuelans are poor or poor lower middle class.
"The average annual salary of these 22 'strike' leaders is $426,000 U.S. dollars a year; almost 100 times the per capita income of the average Venezuelan citizen of $4,760 dollars per year."
-- Al Giordano of NarcoNews.com - December 22 2002.

"When the captain of the Pilin Leon first dropped anchor, he was expressing his solidarity with the anti-government strike in Caracas. But the tanker's crew were opposed to the strike and their captain's piratical action. When the marines boarded, on the orders of the embattled president Hugo Chavez, only the captain needed to be replaced. ... The trump card of the opposition, in April as in December, has been the state-owned oil company, Petroleos de Venezuela, often described as the fifth largest oil exporter in the world, and an important supplier to the US. Nationalised more than 25 years ago, it has been run over the years for the exclusive benefit of its employees and managers - its profits being invested everywhere except Venezuela. Before the arrival of Chavez, it was being prepared for privatisation, to the satisfaction of the engineers and directors who would have benefited. But with a block placed on privatisation by the new Venezuelan constitution, the company's middle class and prosperous elite has been happy to be used as a shock weapon by the leaders of the Pinochet-style opposition, and they have tried to bring their entire industry to a halt."
-- The Guardian, Dec 10 2002. Richard Gott: Racist rage of the Caracas elite.

"The organizers of this so-called “strike” are the very same collection of slimy forces that backed the April [2002] coup d’etat and Dictator-for-a-Day Pedro Carmona, who, once in power, abolished the Supreme Court, the Congress, shut down Community TV and Radio Stations, assassinated 50 political activists, and nullified the Constitution. Carmona also freed the sniper-assassins who had fired shots from rooftops on April 11th into crowds of people, creating the pretext for what was, back then, a military coup. (Stay tuned for our upcoming report about the undisclosed conflicts-of-interest of one of the foreign reporters that helped to create this pretext last April.)"
-- Al Giordano of NarcoNews.com - December 22 2002.
http://www.narconews.com/Issue26/article571.html
"Carmona’s fate was sealed when the military refused to fire on the slum dwellers, leaving the repression to the metropolitan police force. The police, controlled by Caracas Mayor Alfredo Peña, killed dozens of Chávez supporters after the coup, according to Human Rights Watch, but proved unable to defend the new regime. ... Today, despite an oil industry that generates $30 billion a year, 80 percent of Venezuela’s 24 million inhabitants are poor, according to government figures, and half of those are malnourished. ... The main business group, Fedecámaras, and the largest labor organization, the Confederation of Venezuelan Workers (CTV), united to organize one “general strike” December 10 and another that began April 9. Fedecámaras didn’t accept a Chávez offer to talk. And the government refused to negotiate with the CTV leadership, which appeared to have won its October 25 [2001] election through fraud (the union’s filings with the national electoral commission included signatures for only half of the alleged voters)."

"April 4 [2002]: Another work stoppage led by PDVSA managers interrupts oil production. But the three main oil unions, including the Petroleum Workers Federation (Fedepetrol), urge Venezuelans to go to work and defy calls for a general strike."

Any news site that Google News indexes (around 4000 for now) can be searched by putting

I need now to say something very important: In Venezuela there have been several, 20 years or more, in which the petroleum company PDVSA have been making ecological disasters in all Venezuela, and specially at Maracaibo lake oil sites in Zulia state...
But never, never, the commercial media took so "seriously" the environment matter in Venezuela product of PDVSA works. WHY?.
Because there is also working an orchestrated plan by the opposition bosses of using enviornment sabotage made by themselves (oil rich managers) in order to make the public of Venezuela and the world "believe" that Chavez emergency actions to control PDVSA company are made without taking care of the environment and with reckless directives in order to restablish oil suplies quickly from Venezuela.
I will try to translate several environmentalists' messages I have received worth reading to understand well this problem of Oil Rich Managers ecological lies in the commercial media.
I repeat: Anti-Patriotic venezuelan Oil Bosses have a plan of ecological sabotage of PDVSA in order to say then that these ecological problems are caused by Chavez bad management of PDVSA now, these ex-oil bosses also sabotaged environmental remediation facilities at PDVSA in order to delay or completely impede the oil spills they themselves created for this anti-patriotic venezuelan ecological sabotage at PDVSA industry.
The majority of oil spills in Venezuela on this last December and now on January are product of SABOTAGE! Help Chavez saying this at the world, please.
