'Chavez
better for Jamaica than Uncle Sam'
THE EDITOR, Sir:
JAMAICA
LIKE other third world countries is not self-sustaining,
or independent. Their governments and opposition
should be on their own for their people and country.
Bruce
Golding, like his mentor Edward Seaga, has proven
time and time again, to be a puppet of Uncle Sam.
The United States of America has always helped in
times of need, but always at a cost, so Uncle Sam
has no friends, but it is very strategic for Uncle
Sam. If Bruce Golding had his way, our JDF forces
wouldn't be mopping up Iraq and Jamaica's sole independence
on the IMF and World Bank, would keep us in poverty.
But
here comes Chavez with that olive branch as never
before to remove the stranglehold that Uncle Sam
has on us, and Mr. Golding would rather see us sink
instead of float, all in the name of the great U.S.
of A. That won't improve your ratings or put you
in the driver's seat.
PEARL
OF THE CARIBBEAN
Chavez,
like Castro, is the Pearl of the Caribbean. They
have uprooted the capitalist system of the ruling
class and replaced it with a system of rule by the
people, for the people and equal opportunity for
all, regardless of colour or creed. That is what
Jamaica needs, complete opposite to the dictates
of Uncle Sam, via Bruce Golding and the Jamaica
Labour Party.
Jamaica
needs a Castro, or Chavez, to discourage laziness,
handouts, put people to work, eliminate crime and
violence, educate all and not the chosen few who
can afford it because of wealth, and give Jamaica
back to Jamaicans. Chavez, if given an open hand,
will do those and more for the Caribbean basin and
Jamaica than Uncle Sam; but puppets like Bruce Golding
can't see that the open hands of Uncle Sam will
only be a stranglehold on our progress, depleting
us of everything and leaving us like Haiti, poor,
desolate and barren, destitute and needy.
