Is El Chigüire Maduro's new press secretary?
After reading news items like this one, I can only conclude that the trolling of our public sphere is now state policy. In it, we learn that Maduro, the head of Misión Cadivi,
– thinks people who want dollars are like “nymphomaniacs;”
– thinks that the problem is that “some” sectors of our economy are always looking for dollars; (yeah, that would be all the sectors of our economy with actual human beings involved)
– blasts the culture of “oil rentism;” and (as if he had nothing to do with this)
– criticizes those who buy dollars for personal gain and not to import stuff. (I guess that’s with you, Diosdado)
I eagerly await the rodent’s response to this. It’s a tough one, though.
