good job white people now you no longer have to feel bad about the failures of capitalism
I will be posting quotes from the comment section under this comment so that you too can be as informed as a redditor
The oil price is a relatively new problem and it's used to push the narrative that capitalist countries have conspired to destroy the economy of Venezuela.
In truth Venezuela has been an impoverished dictatorship at least since the early 2000s.
Look for news from 2005 and you'll see Chavez closing newspapers, expropriating businesses and land, imprisoning opposition members, etc.
There was no starvation yet at the time but most of the current problems were already in place.
Finally we can do away with this fiction that capitalist countries have conspired to destroy the economy of Venezuela!
surprisingly enough the sanctions have only been put in place recently, this economic problem have been brewing since quite a while and it hurted me seeing my beautiful country degrade little by little as corruption in goverment is so rampant
Chavez was bad; Maduro is worse. Sending love to the land of Bolivar. I hope the nightmare ends soon.
