werent cats on here caping for Castro but now they're against Maduro and Venezualas government? :facepalm:

This coup attempt was sponsored by the CIA.

The same group(America. Canada. Spain. EU. )did the samething with Haiti 2004 Coup but worse. They had the world(even celebrities) cosigning "rebels" ( terriorst) who oust the Democrat elected president ( Aristide) and killed anybody linked to the Poverty/ Democracy(the people) movement. After the operation they installed America proxy UN occupation that last 13+ years. Streets was covered with bodies with kids missing heads and guts spilling out their bodies, the people where bombed and shot with tanks by the UN.

They got PT in Brazil, almost got Ecuador, I figure Bolivia is next. I'm no socialism fan but at least I want a market oriented government with independent, borderline anti-colonial bent. Blacks and Natives aren't coming up otherwise.

Maduro is too nice. He's tried to resolve things diplomatically and even sidelined extremists in his own party. Plus there's no knowledge about economics or economic warfare. If Chavez was still alive, he'd have killed or jailed way more people (CIA agents, Venezuelan compatriots, etc).

If a coup occurs, a pro US regime will enter. Which will be a guaranteed short term win for the opposition.

Then you'll have mass unemployment, austerity and more starvation of the masses. The central bank back under foreign control.

That government will fail as Venezuelans will rebel. They are not politically ignorant people. But then you'll have an aggressive even more anti authoritarian anti western government.

You'll have a civil war and state collapse.

With Venezuela having oil disruptions, the price will go up to $80 a barrel and prolong the House of Saud which is looking at being limited for the next 5 years as their cash reserves are low. The low oil prices are supposed to last the next decade.

The main features are the following:
1. runaway but not (yet) hyper-inflation, which government sources unofficially put at 370 percent for the past 12 months, and which the IMF estimates will top 700 percent
2. multiple years of low and negative economic growth (1.3 percent in 2013, -3.9 percent in 2014, -5.7 percent in 2015, and an estimated -10.1 percent in 2016, according to the IMF
3. According to the Economic Commission on Latin America and the Caribbean -8.0 percent growth in 2016)
4. a 40 percent drop in imports this year and a 60 percent drop since 2012
5. chronic scarcities of food, basic goods, and medicines, with an estimated 80 percent scarcity index:wow:
6. a 40 percent drop in oil-export income in 2015, exacerbating an already acute shortage of dollars
7. high levels of corruption in the public and private sectors, leading to a massive leakage of public revenue, purportedly reaching hundreds of billions of US dollars
8. growing anxieties among the population about whether and how they will meet daily survival needs as well as about the future of the country
9. a mounting political crisis, marked by widespread rejection of the government, but no significant increase in support for the opposition, with over 50 percent of the population identifying with neither the government nor the opposition.



Move too far from laissez faire capitalism brehs:mjgrin:

going to bring this back.
what's going over there is crazy, literally millions of people on strike/protest and protesters being killed by the dozens.
Nicolas Maduro wants to rewrite their constitution (probably so he can stay in power as long as he lives)
