This is true man - and these are often the core supporters of Chavez.

Think the current poverty level is around 30-35% at the moment - which is a reduction on past years when it was almost touching 50% ish.

Agree even 30 something percent is too high, but even industrialized countries have poverty levels of 12-15%.
