quoted from WIKI - "...On April 30, 2007 Chavez announced that Venezuela would be formally pulling out of the IMF and the World Bank, having paid off its debts five years ahead of schedule, saving US$8 millions in doing so. The debt was of US$3 billions in 1999..."

IMF and WB are front "organizations/banks" of "super power countries" to put third world countries under their control... first they lend them money... next they bleed them to debt that would eventually be impossible to pay-up because of high interest. I would call that an abuse.

Do I have to site other issues on the abuse of super power countries in this thread? (... I could get banned because of off-topic posts that would could be categorically flaming others or flame-baiting others...)
