13. I read Richard Gott's book on Venezuela. Venezuelan army operates as a WPA
as well as a self-defense force.
They build schools and railroads out into the country.
I'm sure they'll be using the army not only to dissuade invasion from the north, but also to build infrastructure, and they'll use it to move money down to the working class.
