After 10 years in power, the immense failure of Chavez in combating Venezuelans' problems -crime, inflation, corruption, housing shortage, etc.- continues wreaking havoc on his popular support.
This is evidenced by the latest opinion poll, conducted by the polling firm Keller and Associates, according to which if elections were held now in Venezuela, Chavez would get only 41 percent of the vote.
However, inefficiency is not the only variable that explains the erosion of Chavez's popularity among Venezuelans, because another factor that generates disappointment in the population is the constant aggression of the regime against private property, the media and the democratic freedoms.
And these variables are added to another sensitive issue for Venezuelans, as is the generosity and attention provided by the Chavez government to the problems of other countries. In this sense, it is disappointing for citizens to see how Chavez devotes more time to the Honduran crisis than to the uncontrollable wave of crime in Venezuela.
