Comments on: Che Guevara: The Patron Saint of Half-Wits in Pessimistic Argentina http://www.dailyreckoning.com.au/che-guevara/2007/10/11/ An independent perspective on the Australian and global investment markets Sat, 21 Nov 2009 17:27:32 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8 hourly 1 By: kage http://www.dailyreckoning.com.au/che-guevara/2007/10/11/comment-page-1/#comment-3716 kage Fri, 12 Oct 2007 02:32:47 +0000 http://www.dailyreckoning.com.au/che-guevara/2007/10/11/#comment-3716 I think 'admire' Che because of a cleverly composed graphic that adorns so many Tshirts. Imagery is important. Another important image of about the same vintage is the Campbells soup can that Warhol made famous. People worship that image also.

The soldier who pulled the trigger is still alive. Mr. Bonner is a little loose with the facts: Che' was shot/murdered while in custody at the request of the US.

No doubt, though the chickenhawk was still inspiring enough to get into power. That is Bonner's point too - without this kind of "inspiration" having such sway, mob stupidity is a lot less likely too. "Much more inspiring than an inspid draft-dodging chickenhawk."

Argentina fell in a heap because it relied too heavily on its resources and primary industries without giving enough energy to a vibrant and innovative economy. Che may have a confused notion that central planning was a feasible economic policy but people admire him because he had guts. He had his ideals and he was prepared to fight for them.
