i gotta stop with the dad puns
speaking of Venezuela, you guys are informed on the fact that Venezuela's public revenues were utterly evaporated due to the US-Saudi oil war on Russia and Iran, right? That between 50-60% of the public revenues totally disappeared as a result? The collapse of that country wasn't exactly a domestically originated event. And in fact most data would back the argument up, showing that Venezuela was doing quite strongly on many indicators right up until 2012-2014 period when the shenanigans began and the country's economy suddenly collapsed
supply increased, prices fell, conspiracy against minor player..... if you want to cry conspiracy, do so against russia, not the fags in venezuela, but the USA is now an energy exporter as of 6 months after trump got into office, 4 months after he deregulated what obama regulated vie EO
inflations for example were at their lowest point since 1980s during Chavez era...and of course, they jumped extremely high following the beginnings of the economic war - economic war not necessarily directed against Venezuela but on Iran and Russia, the means of which proved devastating to Venezuelan economy
they were failing reguardless of the US, but i am happy the US is finally exporting
except that they *weren't* failing
yea they were they required 100/b oil
Venezuela's economy was heavily reliant oil, to the exclusion of many other industries (kind of like in Libya but not quite as bad) and while they were diversifying some aspects of the economy they couldn't pull it off fast enough
and their production is shit because they were not upkeeping their rigs and lines
extreme poverty rate also managed to be brought to historic lows under Chavez
heavy industry is high maintenance, and the gov did not do so, they gave the money to politicians instead of production
so now their output is way down and as prices are way down they are double screwed for their bad crude
and it is bad, it needs to be cut with light crude in order to be refined
So ultimately in Venezuela you had a functioning country that was making progress across a multitude of development indicators, both social and economic, and it was then brought down by factors ultimately external to itself and due to US geopolitics vs. Russia. So the "muh Venezuela" argument is really just very myopic and not very well informed.
you had a monoculture that assumed prices would only ever rise, they believed the bullshit leftist peek oil, and that is retarded
sorry but that is not how tech and reality works, oil is everywhere, almost
@Space Bird Lol I recognize you
You pussied out on the private debate
they were trying to diversify btw, as previously mentioned. they had a huge task ahead of them, trying to build a functional country out of what was frankly a shithole before Chavez took office
i have no idea who you are......
literally
Ah, nvm
and the final analysis doesn't lie: the reason why it came down was due to the US-Saudi oil war
without it,
it wouldn't have collapsed
this is rather simple and accurate analysis
It was likely another person with a similar pfp
