“Many of those fired workers fled to Colombia, whose own oil production has soared 6000% since.”
I hope we can get some of the World Class talent likely to flee from Hong Kong, as the communist boot comes down on their necks.

Read some of the comments. The readers of the NYT are ignorant, stupid, and quite good at showing it.

How did the Marxist leadership of the NY Times let a basically anti-communism/Marxist/socialism article get published in their paper? Did all the editors go to the bathroom at the same time?
Gee, maybe they will eventually do a story about the truth of Castro’s hidden communism and what he did to his country and countrymen and women.
Yeah, and Pigs will fly in formation over NYC!

"How did the Marxist leadership of the NY Times let a basically anti-communism/Marxist/socialism article get published in their paper?"
I think their point was that environmental damage resulted from icky oil - and Trump's sanction were as much to blame as Chavez/Maduro's failure to achieve real socialism, because of corruption (or some such rot).
But the magnitude of the destitution there needed some explanation - some talking points for their campaign workers to regurgitate.

Long postt, and very good info. Thank you.
A gas turbine can run two years easy without maintenance and replacement. After 3 years, things begin wear out break. At 5 years, the blades and games and got gas parts are worn through, and eroding and burning through. Burners, nozzles, guide vanes, turbine blades are shot or are just about to fail.
They go out, and the entire unit and casings are scrap metal scattered in pieces.
