Unrest in Bolivia

Well, it looks like there are some in South America willing to fight against the rise of socialism there. Four districts in Bolivia have declared autonomy from the rest of Bolivia. That's 35% of the population. The President of Bolivia is trying to make it a racial issue, but in fact it's a freedom issue. His attempts to redistribute the wealth will do nothing to help the poor -- it will harm the poor and make his countrymen less free. But what else would you expect from a friend to Hugo Chavez?
