January 12, 2009   We at ECrisis have focused on the disgusting socio-political characteristic that is Ecuador today. This is a nation imbued with the national ethic of manipulating everything and everybody as if the Holy Grail is best drunk from on one's manipulative terms and none others. We have also pointed out the tragic and un-manliness of everyone Ecuadorean who is not an active addict to manipulations who is instead a co addict/ a co-enabler. The entire unattractive addictive mess has given this land a stench- the stench of incompetence, dishonesty and false Christianity. We know that Ecuadorean Christian values are false because no one really stood up to president Correa's over ride of Christianity, even with over 90% of all Ecuadoreans claiming to be Catholic, Correa banished Christ and supplanted his religious ethos with a new cult of the state enabling- an enabling diety called Pachamama which gifts Correa with the god-granted demand to break all laws and commit crimes in the name of the fake god Pachamama. But our ardent Catholics in Quito are so shallow, so vain glorious that not one Country Club Catholic, often seen on their knees, did nothing to defend or protect their Christianity, assuming that the Opus Dei sub set would take care of them so that they could pay a little more and still be lazy. No church payments, no indulgences will buy forgiveness in this scam called abandoning Western Civilization. Ecuadoreans are so easily seduced and manipulated because they themselves manipulate and demand obedience to their high art of manipulative/non ethics. This is pathetic.
 
Venezuelans are identical in this process although they have held much more money than Ecuadoreans of late. But the real problem with our erstwhile addicts to manipulative living is that they are so busy manipulating that they forget to work for decency and abandon freedom and true faith. Like a threesome in a marriage....or Iran's political recruiting ploy of multiple partners and polygamy- also approved under Correa's 9-08 constitution, we see that when the field is crowded with gay abandon, little of value progresses.
 
We at ECrisis have long condemned the foolish and shallow claims that with the down turn of oil prices, our idiotic Andean presidents will return to sanity and open democracy, which they claim they will find a-borning. This lazy and irresponsible thinking, also called enabling by incompetent gas bags in the Andes and in Washington, D.C. is shattered by a brilliant analysis here at The Wall Street Journal:

Dictatorship for Dummies
Learn how to quash dissent Chávez-style.
By MARY ANASTASIA O'GRADY

 
"Optimists have long theorized that Venezuela's Hugo Chávez would meet his Waterloo with the burst of the petroleum bubble. But with oil prices down some 75% from their highs last year and the jackboot of the regime still firmly planted on the nation's neck, that theory requires revisiting...." Read it here.

Ecuador is practically identical today in its outlook as Venezuelans, only Correa's state burglaries hurt a lot more because Ecuador never did manage its assets very well at all. As with Iran, Cuba and Venezuela, Correa needs no police state to manipulate Ecuadoreans. Today he does this by controlling every aspect of one's life by manipulating one's own finances and economic capacity. Correa has an entire nation, like all good manipulators, by the short and curlies- unmanned, unhinged and unsexed. It is always the right thing to act appropriately to restore your personal integrity, your freedom and your manhood. Formidable- yes but well worth the journey.
