Now that 80% of their currency has been declared to be completely worthless, desperately hungry Venezuelans with no money to buy food are rioting.

Nicolas Maduro better keep his private jet warmed up on the runway or he could be Ceaușescued. Empty stomachs are tough to placate.

It is only a matter of time till he gets the Mussolini treatment.

I am surprised it hasn’t happened yet. but he can probably still pay his security detail with the oil money he steals from his people.

Once he cannot pay his security detail.......

They should sponsor the Olympics one year and use all of the profits from that to rebuild. Maduras new slogan would be “Make Venezuela Great Again”.

Meanwhile, the ruling elite wants for nothing. They are not bothered by rising prices and shortages. Where did they stash their money? What currency is it in? It’s obviously not Bolivars.

VZ will boil over in less than a year. The question is what form it will take after going full-on Rwanda for a moment.
