The Eternal Commander Hugo Chávez, during President # 363, recalled that when he became president in Venezuela there was no money even to pay salaries.
“To the most illustrious, those wise men who governed Venezuela and sunk it, they talk as if nothing had happened here, they talk about the catastrophe of the Bolivarian Government, of the economic disaster, forgetting the catastrophe in which they, their policies, their theses, plunged Venezuela,” Chávez said on August 8, 2010, from the Miraflores Palace.
In this regard, he criticized the fact that ministers of the Government of the Fourth Republic appear on television with their faces well washed, “talking about the Bolivarian government. When we arrived we didn't have money, not even to pay salaries! , it was a chaotic situation.”
“They were giving it to the country; they had already given away a good part of the town's companies. PDVSA was being privatized, its foreign debt was eating up almost half of the national budget. There was no budget for education, for health,” he said.
In this regard, he stressed that with the arrival of the Bolivarian Revolution, the degree of inequality dropped, “so equity and equality are growing.”
