[Pen-l] news



in today's NY TIMES, there's a Reuters item that says that Hugo
"Chávez has previously nationalized major parts of the economy,
including significant elements of the oil, telecommunications and
energy industries." Did he really nationalize oil? I thought that it
was already owned by the Venezuelan government and his government
subordinated it to the democratically-elected politicians. Also, isn't
it the Venezuelan government that nationalizes companies, not Chávez?

Meanwhile, the library sent me a CHOICE card (to decide whether to buy
a book or not) about a 2008 book by Paul Sweeny _Ireland's Economic
Success: Reasons and Lessons_. Not to be a best-seller.
