Their people should topple this corrupt socialist government and slay all the statists and corporatists and start over...
We are now where The Founders were when they faced despotism.

The saddest thing about Venezuela is that it wasn't a poor nation,  until the socialists seized power there.    It once was fairly wealthy (at least at south american standards) democratic, had a large middle class and entrepreneur class (they had to flee for their lives).

Yeah, I suppose it was easier at first too to seduce the nation into socialism...blame the capitalists for being the slavemasters of the Yankee Imperialist dogs and rile up the people to elect progressive equality-for-all (but you rabble!) leftists and once the capitalists were driven out or converted the rest was easy...well, the sliding into the depts of Hell became easier than anything!  Most could be said for the other Latin American nations that went this retarded route, best example being Cuba, sure Bautista was a tool, but I think people in Cuba who remember those times would agree it was a damn sight better than Commie oppression, otherwise they wouldn't risk their lives overloading boats and going out to sea in storms and sharks to escape it for over 50 years!!!
