That was perfect.

Agreed. Helping bolster your image in the eyes of others whilst failing to foresee the ever increasing strain on an already fragile economy is only going to be detrimental in the long run.
I can see what the country is trying to do here, but the last thing they need is more outgoings from taxation, which will lead to more people staying at home.
Those who stay at home are not paying taxes and therefore are not contributing back to a system that is putting more investment in them.
To support the people who are being paid to stay at home, those who work will be taxed even more.
Higher taxation will impact the lower paid workers most with many being unable to live adequately, forcing them too to stay at home. This puts more people on the tax bill.

Besides if a country is developing, shouldn't it be doing more to encourage more women INTO work. It seems a bit ass backwards to me.

I think the important thing is that SOMETHING is happening to change the issues, as opposed to the lack of things happening so many other places.

No, I'd disagree there. There's a fairly common misconception that change in a bad situation is always good even when it's simply for the sake of change. Venezuela breaking off bits of its economy sandwich so that Juan and Carla have something to feed their children is all well and good but when that sandwich runs out the family's kind of screwed for the future.

Your racism is unappreciated so I'm going ignore your responses for now on.

Can someone please explain what could possibly be considered racist in it to me?

It's probably because you assumed that people would have standard Hispanic names in Venezuala. I didn't find it racist, though.

Yeah I can only assume it was the Juan and Carla statement. Pretty mild but people are people.
