"All the companies the president ... has expropriated, all those companies have gone bust," Prieto said in a telephone interview from the northwestern city of Barquisimeto. He cited the example of Vengas, a natural gas company that was seized by the government and is now called Gas Comunal. "That company was the best gas business here in Barquisimeto," he said. "Now you can't get gas." Chavez wondered aloud Sunday what the government would do with Polar's brewery in the event of a takeover, and said he would shut down the beer-making operation.
