Dear Yasmin and Federico: There is no need to tell my father what the crowd you reported did on your street ... I'm afraid that will only prove his point ... "nothing good has ever come from hate and resentment?"

On the other hand it will be very difficult for me to do so ... he passed away long time ago! So take it easy and try to ponder words of wisdom. I hope our Elio Cequea also takes stoke on his reckless theory!

You are right on the surging of urban slums and shantytowns ... you are wrong when use the fact to disprove the economic and social facts of robust economic growth and improving well-being from the 50s thru the 70s.

You might try to read some of the excellent UN reports about it ... that will more than disprove the theory put forward by Elio.

I do not know how old are, you guys, and whether you have children or not ... let me ask you a couple of questions you only need to ponder about ... What future would you think a humble Venezuelan couple could foresee for their children in the early 60s? What future do you think a humble Venezuelan couple foresees for their children today?
