What Can the Venezuelan Government F*** Up Next? I Know, Water!

[gipper]

Of course they are going to find a boogeyman to blame for their own incompetence.

Yeah sure, blame the attacks of your Trump regime on Venezuela. Wow, so many fortuities.

Go back to your hole, you conspiracy nutball.

It´s obvious what is going on.

Only in your own addled wibble mind.

Phrump wants to invade. We can see, countries that are on Uncle Sam´s war list, are getting demoized.

...and guess what the CIA installed president of Venezuela is demanding?

BINGO!!!

Venezuela’s government-in-waiting intends to scrap requirements that state-owned oil giant PDVSA keep a controlling stake in joint ventures as it seeks to revive the oil sector and encourage private investment, National Assembly leader Juan Guaido’s representative to the U.S. said.

BS Associated Press fluff, designed to gin up sympathy for "intervention".
Venezuela doesn't need a regime change.

Why shouldn't the US apply economic pressure on VZ to effectuate regime change? They are incompetent beyond belief. There are 3 million VZ refugees. Do you want America to take them in? Or should responsible government be installed so they go back?

In the state in which you live, the Republican legislature and the Republican governor passed laws condemning the Maduro government, and instructed the state pension to divest in companies which do businesses in the country.

You have no clue what has gone on there. At its peak, PdVSA was producing 3.2 million barrels a day. But Chavez - accusing workers at the oil company of plotting against him - fired many highly technical oil professionals, almost all who left the country, and replaced them with party hacks and military personal who knew nothing about the oil business.

PdVSA didn't always require controlling stakes in oil fields. Under Chavez, the VZ government starting changing the terms and expropriating property from international corporations that did business in the country. So companies stopped investing in VZ. Unsurprisingly, production is now a million barrels and falling.

Are you - a self-described libertarian - defending government power to expropriate private property? Because that's what your argument is implying. It's interesting that you're backing a socialist.

Sanctions prohibiting business with CITGO went into effect in January, didn't they?

Toro, I'm not sure more sanctions will have much impact, considering what a mess they're in already. Making things worse over there is only going to make more suffering for the people, isn't it? I can't get this pic out of my mind:
Venezuelans facing 'unprecedented challenges,' many need aid - internal U.N. report | Reuters

Maduro is not going anywhere. He is accepting aid from several sources, including the EU, the Red Cross, etc. The UN is trying to coordinate more assistance. Maybe we need to stay out of it, as long as Russia butts out.

Sanctions are not the same as toppling a dictator and installing a puppet, which never works. Has. Not. Worked. Yet.

Regime change is just like Communism, it always fails and people suffer.

The only countries with actual socialism are Cuba and North Korea. Socialist currencies do not have inflation in the first place. Their value is fixed.
Venezuela´s upper class couldn´t revolt in Socialism. They couldn´t boycott stores, factories ect, because they´d got none.
But in Venezuela they do. It´s themselves who caused the crisis. Whatever your personal view on economic policies is, this results in an economic crisis.

When a socialist country that owns the power company can't keep it's power on, it's in trouble. They seem to have infrastructure problems and not enough money to fix them. I don't know if it is because they're socialist, though. Maybe it is, but China is doing okay, Cuba is alright. There are plenty of democratic socialist countries in Europe that aren't falling to pieces. There has to be more to it than what the conservatives are yapping about.

Most of the countries in Europe you think are socialist are actually just Welfare States, and they are having issues keeping up the Welfare.

What they don't have is a total collapse of government, which you see in Venezuela. There the government nationalizes everything in sight, and tries to run them, but can't.

Chavez promised a Bolivarian Socialist country, and he got it.

That´s all nonsense.

Venezuela – Capitalist Success, Not Socialist Failure

Lolololol

Where did I state ANYTHING resembling what you have concluded?

My point is the stinking criminal US government is trying to overthrow the elected government of VZ, because it has it's lackey in place who will privatize oil, thus benefiting the large multi-national oil companies.

Secondly, it is none of the US's business. When will Americans wake the fuck up? Empire building NEVER works and it only benefits the Ruling Class.
