According to socialist government of Venezuela, they are a victim of economic warfare......... It's not their fault. It's someone else's fault.
The President of Venezuela has declared that, as a result of the country being subject to economic warfare, the state of emergency will be extended by another two months. And Nicolas Maduro is indeed correct: that benighted country is indeed subject to economic war. The problem is that it’s a war that has been declared and conducted by Maduro against his own population.
What ails Venezuela is not the conduct of foreigners, nor even oil prices, but the policies of Bolivarian socialism which have wrecked the essential features of a functioning economy. Thus the solution is not for the President to take more powers to himself to intervene in the economy, but for him to stop doing the foolish things he’s already doing.
It's actually kind of scary. Reminds me of the democrats here in the USA. Welfare isn't working so have more welfare......... 20% of high school students drop out; so let's offer more free school......
