The people of Venezuela should be the richest people on earth, but they are the poorest

[BrokeLoser]

This isn't about the oil, or wealth really, it is about control and power.

The folks that ordered this, like the ones that ordered the invasion of Iraq and the bombing of Libya are far more concerned with their control over the status quo.

You are nothing but their useful idiot it would appear.

Michael Moore says that very thing about anyone who believes 9/11 happened.
Alex Jones thinks the same of those who believe Sandy Hook happened.

Were they ever rich OP?

Yes as a matter of fact they were at one time...
Venezuela's best economic years occurred primarily between the 1950s and early 1980s, a period defined by a robust, oil-fueled economy that made it one of the wealthiest countries in South America and, for a time, globally in terms of GDP per capita.

• Mid-20th Century Boom (1950s-1970s): Driven by the discovery and commercialization of vast oil reserves, Venezuela's economy experienced rapid, sustained growth. By 1950, it was the fourth-richest country in the world on a GDP per capita basis. This era attracted significant immigration and allowed for extensive government spending on public programs like healthcare, education, and infrastructure, contributing to a high standard of living.

The rich parts of them were, I believe. Just like now, I assume. Just as it will stay with American meddling.

proof that socialism[communism] is a fraud and the rich still get richer .. especially the government higher ups ..

 

[MisterBeale]

Yes, oil can build a wealthy nation.
And yes, Asians are intelligent and disciplined human beings.

There you go. . . see there?

Admitting that race has nothing to do with intelligence or success, but rather, it only comes down to culture transmitted from one generation to the next, that wasn't so hard. . . was it?

That’s feel good stuff…In general, that’s not true at all. I know you know that.
Melanin and cultural deficiencies seem to go hand in hand…almost always, almost everywhere.
When we find a new investment property the first thing we do is query for race demographics in the community/city it’s located in…Such a query doesn’t tell me anything about culture but it tells me if the area is a shithole or not every single time…that’s not coincidence.
It’s time we have the courage to talk about it…The problem won’t solve itself.

Maybe, probably….but aren’t you tired of everyone around you telling you how much better everything is with less whites and more diversity. It’s a lie and we need to have the courage to call it a lie.

Diversity is a different animal than multi-culturalism.

America has been, since the beginning of its founding, a very diverse nation, the most diverse on the planet I would guess.

. . . but there isn't a nation on the face of Earth that can withstand "multiculturalism." Not the Soviet Union, not Yugoslavia, and indeed, even French Canadians have a time with the other Canadians.

America will be no different if we abandon a common culture.

You confuse ethnic origin with culture quite regularly. The source of most bigotry is ignorance, so this doesn't surprise me much.

Nobody uses the term multiculturalism. When they say diversity they always mean fewer whites.

Diversity of thought is great…ANY other kind of diversity destroys. An 80% Euro America was unarguably amazing…that’s no coincidence.

America will be no different if we abandon a common culture.

Democrats insist on it…they insist that there is no such thing as ‘american culture’.

You’re willing to pretend the needle in the haystack is representative of the haystack…I say the haystack represents the needle.

 

[Votto]

Not true. Machado was never elected to anything. Otherwise, spot on!

Once they chose Chavez, once they ventured down the road of Left-wing fascism, Maderno, or someone like him, was inevitable.

Which is exactly why Trump has invaded. He intends to steal it.

Do you think he is going to share that wealth with Venezuela?

trump was being interviewed on Air Force 1 when he said that the oil companies are chomping at the bit to get into Venezuela. He said he had spoken to them both before and after the operation to remove Maduro. The thing is, the oil company executives say they never spoke with trump.

Venezuela’s hidden jewels: Decoding why it’s so rich in oil and gold

Venezuela holds the world’s largest proven oil reserves and substantial gold deposits, driven by its unique geology in the Orinoco Belt and Guiana Shield.

www.indiatoday.in

The country of Venezuela should be the richest people in South America, owning some of the largest deposits of gold and oil in the world. However, since the Marxist Hugo Chavez took over that country in 2002 and then taken over by Maduro, it has become one of the poorest. The leader Maduro is the dictator Marxists like Mamdani are crying about losing power, because they want to do the EXACT same thing to all of us.

Now compare this to the dictator Gaddafi in Libya, or I should say, before President Obama overthrew him and later murdered. Unlike the Marxist dictators in Venezuela, the people of Libya had the highest standard of living in Africa.

Gaddafi’s Libya Was Africa ‘s Most Prosperous Democracy – Just International

just-international.org

It was also one of the most democratic states on earth. It is then ironic that Libya does not have close to the wealth in natural resources like oil and gold that Venezuela has.

So, comparing the two dictators, who deserved to be removed more? Is it the one Barak Obama removed, as Europe and NATO praised him, giving him a Nobel Peace prize for murdering Gaddafi, or is it President Trump whom removed a dictator that replaced a woman who won a Nobel Peace prize because she was expelled by Maduro? And to think, Trump will even give Maduro his day in court, something Gaddafi never had.

The people of the United States should all be better off than they are but white collar crime goes unpunished and the super wealthy control the government and have the laws serve their interests.

Curious that Maduro has had a similar effect on his people as the democrats have had on America. If not for democrats and their poorly run government, we would all have a second home while only paying half the taxes we do. No wonder they want to defend Mamdani so.

Wow.

Your ignorance never ceases to amaze me.

You know who else thought that they used, "basic logic," as well? Phrenologists.

You aren't any better in your logic than they are.

Yeah those 73 white collar criminals are destroying America.
The 50 million illegal aliens who have destroyed blue collar trades, all wages, our healthcare, education, social services, emergency services and rents….the ones who have fed our sons fentanyl and maimed, raped and murdered our daughters have nothing to do with it.
