How will Evo Morales’s expropriation of Bolivia’s natural gas, oil and mining affect the world?

“The time has come, the awaited day, a historic day in which Bolivia retakes absolute control of our natural resources,” Morales, Bolivia’s first Indian president, said in a speech from the San Alberto field operated by Petrobras in association with Repsol and Total SA.

State television aired footage of soldiers and police standing guard outside some gas installations and petroleum company offices in the eastern city of Santa Cruz, where much of the industry is based.

Vice President Alvaro Garcia Linera said troops were sent to 56 locations nationwide.

“The looting by the foreign companies has ended,” Morales declared.

It will probably work out very well for Bolivians because like Chavez in Venezuela, Morales is channeling the revenue from the state appropriations to programs that work for the people of Bolivia. This is what he was elected to do and unlike our politicians here he actually kept good on his electoral platform and promises. This is in direct opposition to the FTAA agreements that the US tried to ram through which would exploit the people there, privatize the water (Bechtel) and make people’s lives miserable.

It probably won’t be the best for corporate interests like Bechtel etc. but those corporations have no more loyalty to the economy of the US than they do to the economy of the Marchall Islands… so we should support the indigenous peoples of Bolivia and others, for it is thier resources and they are using them to benefit their country, thier people.

viva Morales!

The two old adversaries go at it, as always, with good-humored ferocity. Mr. Galbraith begins by contending that a free market in oil and gas has not existed for some time: “The market has been extensively su…
