Heating oil
It seems to me that anyone who bashes Hugo Chávez's PR efforts to provide heating oil to the northeast should counter by making sure poor people in the northeast don't freeze. Instead, heating aid is being cut.
The Citgo program was suspended, at least briefly, but seems to be on again. It's just baffling. We're outsourcing poverty aid while constantly complaining about doing so.

It is a real shame when people who where receiving financial aid for heating oil get their benefits cut with little hope to keep their homes in families warm. In Connecticut we have been fortunate enough to be having a mild winter so far, but eventually the cold will settle in and I am afraid to see what will happen to people if oil prices continue to rise.
