Euros?

That's what the landowners have to give to the government. He is running out of foreign reserves, even though they used to be an oil exporter. He is desperate for foreign cash.

“That’s what the landowners have to give to the government. He is running out of foreign reserves, even though they used to be an oil exporter. He is desperate for foreign cash. “

I worked for a large energy engineering and construction firm, and we built refineries in Venezuela.

I didn’t go there, but friends of mine did. They said it was an okay place in the 70s and 80s.

Met a 30ish female from Miami a few weeks ago. Actually she is originally from Venezuela, but her whole family got out. They are educated, professionals.

She said it is like Cuba in the 1950s with the educated elites getting out if they can.

She was gorgeous, btw—Spanish, not El Indio. And her Spanish sounded different from the Mex-talk I am used to here in SoCal.
