This whole Venezuela thing WILL end. And it won’t be pretty.
There will be heads on pikes before this is finished...................
But it’s NOT the weekend.
Maybe its for their annual training....

All for a note that’s worth three cents American.
It might come to an end when the military find out their drug money is now worthless. At least at the lower end of the military. The bigshot generals probably knew better and long ago converted the almost worthless Bolivars into cash and deposited it into offshore accounts.
Venezuela is ripe for a cartel takeover.
Think about it. Instant liquidity from drug acquired U.S. dollars.
Unfortunately though, it will be bloody. Very bloody.

People of Cuba and Venezuela, the Calvary is on the way, hang on until January 20!
Calvary is good but the Cavalry is on the way in January!
Sadly, I know a lady I with whom I went to school who lives there, who many years ago had a finance job.
When people start starving, it is DAYS, not weeks or months until action occurs
You would be amazed by what can be bought for pennies in some parts f the world.
But those folks have to go to Columbia to buy necessities and Columbia does not accept those bolivars, only dollars. It’s like the old USSR with lines for just about anything and hours standing in them.
If I were Trump, I would leave Venezuela alone.
Its headed into the toilet anyway, and there’s no benefit to meddling in their crisis.
In fact, Venezuela as an on-going socialist soap-opera is an excellent and constant rebuke to statists and collectivists everywhere.
My wife worked with the foreign students support area for a local university. We still have the kids up to our house for the occasional campfire and other stuff. About 15 of them are Venezuelans. None of them will be going home any time soon. They have some interesting stories, some of which include the death of family members at the hands of the government.
Bingo. The typical outcome of these “People’s Republics.”
I read last night that Venezuela closed the border with Columbia .
Some number of Venezuelans have illegally fled to Panama, creating real problems there.
People are losing their jobs because they are undercut by these illegals.
It’s a bad situation.
Oh, right. Read that as well - 72 hour closure it was reported.

100 bolivar= $10.005 USD

That ten spot will buy a room, three meals and two or three women you’ll have a hard time getting rid of.
