Con que facilidad mienten sobre la faja, que horror, tanto la faja como las empresas de Guayana están casi paralizadas, lo unico que se produce en la faja es lo que hizo la cuarta república, las empresas de Guayana están obsoletas, no han invertido nada, esta en bancarrota,
Para empezar, en la faja, los nuevos convenios son dando propiedad del 40% a empresas extranjeras que ahora son duenas de los barriles que antes eran nuestros. Para su informacion los EEUU que es el pais mas poderoso del mundo, NO TIENE UNA EMPRESA PETROLERA PROPIA, solo se limita a cobrar impuestos, entonces me pregunto, porque nosotros tenemos que hacerlo diferente, y la respuesta esta en que asi mandamos en las companias y colocamos alli a nuestros amigos parientes, etc, y ganan mas los q gobiernan, y ahora dale con mercosur, que barbaridad, alli vamos a entregar los interiores, pues no estamos en condiciones de competir con nadie, ni con los mas pobres, pues nuestra industria esta destruida, acabada, solo los socios de mercosur harán su agosto con menos impuestos y pagos aduanales. no ganamos nada con decir que tenemos las reservas de petroleo mas grande del mundo pues si no tienen pozos ni estan desarrolladas, no te sirven de nada, pues hay que hacer mucha inversion para recuperarlas y ponerlas en desarrollo o en produccion.
enas del barril q esta debajo de la superficie, pregunto, es eso nacionalizar? es todo lo contrario, pues antes ahora no somos duenos sino del 60%, ademas también han otorgado áreas a empresas que no saben absolutamente nada de petroleo de la faja, como de la construcción de reformadores y mejoradores de crudo, como Cupet, la cubana, y otras que están allí solo marcando el territorio pues no han movido un dedo, ni invertido nada, ademas, pdvsa no tiene dinero para invertir plata en esos proyectos, casi siempre paga en especie, con lo que extraigan, ahi esta el campo la perla de falcón, que pdvsa va a pagar su parte con condensado, y recibir gas natural a precios internacionales, y subsidiarlo al mercado interno, esto senores es serio, pues la política esta pudriendo estos negocios. Como vamos a creerle al presidente de pdvsa que china nos da diez dolares mas por barril que las ventas a usa, debe haber sacado las cuentas mal sacadas, pues solo el flete se come la diferencia, por lo tanto, es increíble como doblan o tuercen las verdades, que digan cuantos barriles están produciendo los proyectos nuevos en la faja?
que les parecen estos logros de la revolucion? las plantas hidroelectricas que tanto cacarean fueron disenadas y programadas por la cuarta, no ahora, eso tarda mucho tiempo, pero ellos dicen que son ellos los que hicieron esas plantas, que mentiras. menos mal que por lo menos continuaron los planes que se tenian, pero quien sabe a que costo?

jaua es quien menos moral tiene para hablar de esto, era un tira piedras!
Jaua y la moral
Si usted tiene un pequeño negocio y algunos empleados, usted es un inmoral.
Así se concluye de la airada respuesta que el vicepresidente dio a Henrique Capriles Radonski (HCR), quien llamó bandidos a todos los exministros de Agricultura del gobierno chavecista.
Desconocemos cómo hicieron dinero los padres de HCR, mas tenemos la impresión de que Elías Jaua tampoco lo sabe bien. Empero, actúa como representante de un gobierno vengativo y atrabiliario que ha demostrado desbordadamente no tener idea del carácter promotor, unificador y constructivo que corresponde al Poder Ejecutivo.
Lo que sabemos todos hasta el hartazgo es que basta que usted sea un pequeño comerciante, un empresario, un burgués -en el correcto y actual sentido del término-, para que la ortodoxia revolucionaria lo considere inmoral, apátrida y explotador de los trabajadores.
Nadie en Venezuela ni en ninguna parte desconoce que hay empresarios y comerciantes que pudieran ser explotadores, mas no todos lo son y la mayoría no debe serlo. Y si vamos al desmadre y desorden característico de este gobierno, se puede decir sin temor a errar que en este instante el mejor modelo del empresariado explotador lo son algunas de las empresas chinas que la revolución ha incorporado a los negocios en el país.
Por otra parte, de lo que sí no cabe duda ninguna es de que resulta una bandolería y son bandidos o bandoleros quienes, como Elías Jaua, promueven y ejecutan el despojo arbitrario de tierras a sus dueños legítimos en todo el país. Tierras supuestamente expropiadas que en la verdad han sido confiscadas.
Más bandolería aún es entregarlas a campesinos e indígenas que no tienen recursos ni conocimiento para cultivar el campo ni el gobierno se ocupa de adiestrarlos, terminando convertidas en pajonales.
Fiel representante de un gobierno destructor de lo que otros construyeron con esfuerzo, y el ejemplo más simbólico es el de Petróleos de Venezuela, Elías José Jaua Milano es el vicepresidente bandido de un gobierno carcomido por el malandraje y el latrocinio.

Petroleum demand slips further in July
August 17, 2012
Source: API
Total U.S. petroleum deliveries (a measure of demand) fell 2.7 percent in July to just above 18 million barrels per day. This is the lowest July level since 1995 and the lowest level for any month since September 2008. Total petroleum demand for the year to date was down 2.3 percent.
Gasoline demand fell more, down 2.2 percent from June and down 3.8 percent from July a year ago to the lowest July level since 1997. Demand for other major products also declined except distillates, which increased 4.9 percent, driven by strong ultra-low sulfur diesel deliveries.
“While retail sales for July are up and housing has improved, the weak petroleum demand numbers are a strong indication the economy is still faltering,” said API chief economist John Felmy. “Unfortunately, achieving robust growth will likely continue to be an uphill climb given the nation’s fiscal challenges, business uncertainty, and a European economy in jeopardy of sliding back into recession.”
Despite weakening petroleum demand, refinery production remained strong. At nine million barrels per day, gasoline production reached its third highest July level. Distillate production at nearly 4.8 million barrels per day was at a record high for any July and the third highest monthly level ever. Year-to-date distillate production also set a record. Total refinery inputs grew by 2.3 percent in July to the highest level this year.
Production of all four major products – gasoline, distillate, jet fuel and residual fuels – was greater than demand for those products. As a result, petroleum imports decreased and exports increased. Total imports of crude and refined products fell by 9.6 percent to average 10.4 million barrels per day in July. Exports of refined products increased to a record high for July, and year-to-date exports were up 14 percent compared with the same period in 2011.
Refinery utilization rose to 92.7 percent in July, the second month in a row above 90.0 percent.
Crude oil production remained strong and was up from the prior month, prior year and prior year to date. At 6.225 million barrels per day, it was the highest level of domestic production for any July since 1998.
The number of oil and gas rigs decreased from 1,972 in June to 1,944 in July, according to the latest reports from Baker-Hughes, Inc., and has stayed under 2,000 for all of 2012.
Crude oil stocks were up 5.1 percent from last year, but down 4.3 percent from June levels to end in July at 365.8 million barrels. Stocks of all major products were down from last year’s levels. Gasoline and distillate stocks were both up in July compared with the month before.
API represents more than 500 oil and natural gas companies, leaders of a technology-driven industry that supplies most of America’s energy, supports 9.2 million U.S. jobs and 7.7 percent of the U.S. economy, delivers more than $86 million a day in revenue to our government, and, since 2000, has invested over $2 trillion in U.S. capital projects to advance all forms of energy, including alternatives.

LAS MARRAMUCIAS DEL TARJETON ELECTORAL
tomado de un amigo,
11 hours ago via Conduit ·
las TRAMPAS DEL CNE
Asunto: Tarjetón electoral para el 7-Octubre - alerta
Este es el tarjetón definitivo, según me lo explica el remitente de este correo, quien
alerta lo siguiente:
la tarjeta de la MESA DE LA UNIDAD (MUD) dice "MUD Unidad", y está ubicada en la penúltima posición de la última fila, moviéndose de izquierda a derecha.
Pues bien, con la misma palabra UNIDAD existen dos tarjetas: una ubicada en la última columna, la número cuatro de arriba hacia abajo, y que dice "MIN UNIDAD" (fácil de confundir con MUD Unidad), de color azúl, el mismito azul elegido por la MUD; y la otra está ubicada en la tercera columna de derecha a izquierda, es roja y dice "UNIDAD visión VENEZUELA". Además, al lado de esta tarjeta roja, está ubicada otra tarjeta que dice "Unidos para VENEZUELA".
Si esto no es un intento deliberado del CNE y sus señoras, por inducir a la confusión del elector, no sé que es. Quien se coma el cuento que los otros seis espontáneos candidatos que surgieron de la nada lo hacen por amor a Venezuela o porque creen que tendrán algún chance de figurar en los números finales, en realidad nos está viendo la cara de pendejos a todos los venezolanos.
Para mí aquí hay una flagrante manipulación del tarjetón.
Esta es la tarjeta oficial para votar y el Voto formal de LA MESA DE LA UNIDAD DEMOCRATICA QUE DICE “UNIDAD” para votar por Henrique Capriles Radonski.
Las otras que aparecen para Capriles Radonski son organizaciones políticas que quieren llevar sus tarjetas y por ella votarán sus militantes o simpatizantes.

THE AMERICAN DREAM. EL SUENO AMERICANO.
NEW YORK – America likes to think of itself as a land of opportunity, and others view it in much the same light. But, while we can all think of examples of Americans who rose to the top on their own, what really matters are the statistics: to what extent do an individual’s life chances depend on the income and education of his or her parents?
Illustration by John Overmyer
CommentsNowadays, these numbers show that the American dream is a myth. There is less equality of opportunity in the United States today than there is in Europe – or, indeed, in any advanced industrial country for which there are data.
CommentsThis is one of the reasons that America has the highest level of inequality of any of the advanced countries – and its gap with the rest has been widening. In the “recovery” of 2009-2010, the top 1% of US income earners captured 93% of the income growth. Other inequality indicators – like wealth, health, and life expectancy – are as bad or even worse. The clear trend is one of concentration of income and wealth at the top, the hollowing out of the middle, and increasing poverty at the bottom.
CommentsIt would be one thing if the high incomes of those at the top were the result of greater contributions to society, but the Great Recession showed otherwise: even bankers who had led the global economy, as well as their own firms, to the brink of ruin, received outsize bonuses.
CommentsA closer look at those at the top reveals a disproportionate role for rent-seeking: some have obtained their wealth by exercising monopoly power; others are CEOs who have taken advantage of deficiencies in corporate governance to extract for themselves an excessive share of corporate earnings; and still others have used political connections to benefit from government munificence – either excessively high prices for what the government buys (drugs), or excessively low prices for what the government sells (mineral rights).
CommentsLikewise, part of the wealth of those in finance comes from exploiting the poor, through predatory lending and abusive credit-card practices. Those at the top, in such cases, are enriched at the direct expense of those at the bottom.
CommentsIt might not be so bad if there were even a grain of truth to trickle-down economics – the quaint notion that everyone benefits from enriching those at the top. But most Americans today are worse off – with lower real (inflation-adjusted) incomes – than they were in 1997, a decade and a half ago. All of the benefits of growth have gone to the top.
CommentsDefenders of America’s inequality argue that the poor and those in the middle shouldn’t complain. While they may be getting a smaller share of the pie than they did in the past, the pie is growing so much, thanks to the contributions of the rich and superrich, that the size of their slice is actually larger. The evidence, again, flatly contradicts this. Indeed, America grew far faster in the decades after World War II, when it was growing together, than it has since 1980, when it began growing apart.
CommentsThis shouldn’t come as a surprise, once one understands the sources of inequality. Rent-seeking distorts the economy. Market forces, of course, play a role, too, but markets are shaped by politics; and, in America, with its quasi-corrupt system of campaign finance and its revolving doors between government and industry, politics is shaped by money.
CommentsFor example, a bankruptcy law that privileges derivatives over all else, but does not allow the discharge of student debt, no matter how inadequate the education provided, enriches bankers and impoverishes many at the bottom. In a country where money trumps democracy, such legislation has become predictably frequent.
CommentsBut growing inequality is not inevitable. There are market economies that are doing better, both in terms of both GDP growth and rising living standards for most citizens. Some are even reducing inequalities.
CommentsAmerica is paying a high price for continuing in the opposite direction. Inequality leads to lower growth and less efficiency. Lack of opportunity means that its most valuable asset – its people – is not being fully used. Many at the bottom, or even in the middle, are not living up to their potential, because the rich, needing few public services and worried that a strong government might redistribute income, use their political influence to cut taxes and curtail government spending. This leads to underinvestment in infrastructure, education, and technology, impeding the engines of growth.
CommentsThe Great Recession has exacerbated inequality, with cutbacks in basic social expenditures and with high unemployment putting downward pressure on wages. Moreover, the United Nations Commission of Experts on Reforms of the International Monetary and Financial System, investigating the causes of the Great Recession, and the International Monetary Fund have both warned that inequality leads to economic instability.
CommentsBut, most importantly, America’s inequality is undermining its values and identity. With inequality reaching such extremes, it is not surprising that its effects are manifest in every public decision, from the conduct of monetary policy to budgetary allocations. America has become a country not “with justice for all,” but rather with favoritism for the rich and justice for those who can afford it – so evident in the foreclosure crisis, in which the big banks believed that they were too big not only to fail, but also to be held accountable.
CommentsAmerica can no longer regard itself as the land of opportunity that it once was. But it does not have to be this way: it is not too late for the American dream to be restored.

EEUU CON 430 MIL MILLONES DE BBLS DE RESERVA!
TERREMOTO PETROLERO EN PUERTA PARA LA OPEP/OPEC. LEAN ESTO!
Refer a Friend to Energy and Capital.
Bad News for OPEC
By Jeff Siegel | Thursday, August9th, 2012
According to the Department of Energy, up to 430 billion barrels of recoverable oil lay right herein the United States.
Exactly how much oil is this?
It's...
2x more than all the reserves of Saudi Arabia
6x more than Mother Russia
More than Iraq, Iran, Kuwait, and Canada combined!
All of which makes it even harder to understand why we're still dependent on any one of these countries for ouroil.
The truth is it's not because of politics... but simply because this oil istoo difficult to extract.
You see, most people are surprised to learn that when it comes to crude, oil companies typically recover only the"low-hanging fruit": just 10% to 20% of the oil in proven reserves.
That's it. The rest is either too difficult or too costly to extract.
Think about that: Up to 90% of proven oil is simply abandonedby profit-hungry oil companies!
Now just imagine what it would mean if these companies could finally get to all this "leftover" oil.
