Unfortunately, a march by itself isn’t going to overthrow this entrenched thug and his roving gangs of Revolutionary Guards. And a lot of the people marching were just fine with Socialism when it was taking away other peoples’ money and handing it out to them. The reason Socialism works is because everyone, to one degree or another, has a weakness for greed. Getting something for “free” from someone else. By the time you get where they are in Venezuela where people are literally starving, and dying because there is no basic medicine, the thugs are in charge. Venezuela is almost North Korea. The thugs will kill off these protestors and the survivors will be too scared to protest again.

When WTI was at $150, Venezuela was ALMOST able to afford their Bolivarian revolution. At 50, which is in the 20s for the foul slop that Venezuela produces, not a chance.
