Venezuela was a beautiful cultured richly endowed country. It has been destroyed by malevolent lunatic politics nurse maided along by idiot Marxist intellectuals and Cuba and Russia. Zeihan analyzes the fast coming final collapse.
Our esteemed Captain Denny used to keep us posted on relatively wealthy educated Venezuela’s slow collapse into malevolent idiocy, but he was of the sensible ones who fled while he still could.
In High School I was enchanted by a Venezuelan foreign exchange student, Claudia, who taught me to partner her in dancing the “Joropo”. She was from a farming family, and her home was modest and magnificent, and is now rubble. The farm itself was confiscated and converted into a holiday location for governmental thugs.
Claudia is now thriving, farming in Riverside, California. She cannot talk about what was lost.
Idiot politics has consequences.
