Venezuela is proof that even if your country is drowning in oil that socialism will find a way to make you poor.

“... about half of the oil shipped to China goes to paying existing debt....”
So you have resources, just piss them away. Easy. Damned shame.

The bad thing is that China may just pull the plug and get oil from other places--it costs a lot of money to ship oil from Venezuela to China, especially if you have to use supertankers that can't fit through the Panama Canal (it's a long trip around Cape Horn back to China!).

The country's energy-dependent economy requires oil prices above $100 per barrel in order to sustain itself. Wow. The biggest hedge-fund collapse since the USSR.

companies and countries have been reducing their exposure to Venezuelan debts for years. An implosion will be regionally problematic.

China and Fidel get Venezuelan oil on the very cheap. Oil prices have plummeted and 95% of Venz’s economy relies on oil revenues. What could possibly go wrong? El Puerco Hugo crossed the River Styx without feeling the pain of his failed economic, tyrannical legacy. The big moustachioed stump of a dope is hanging on by a thread.
