The crisis in Venezuela unfortunately seems to be getting worse. This recent protest is because president Nicolas Maduro put in place a policy to re-write the current constitution to give himself more power (of course what else is new) and the courts upheld that decision. The people have now gone into action and to hold on to what little right's they have left. 66 of the Venezuelan people have given their lives just during this last resistance, while thousands have been injured.
Image source- The things going south down there have no excuss. This is a extremly oil rich country and they have their citizens litttary starving to death where
11,000 babies have died before the age of one in 2016. This should in no way happen to such an oil rich country I fear the powers that be are at hand again.
According to OPEC's latest figures, Venezuela has the most proven crude oil reserves in the world, with over 300 billion barrels. That puts it ahead of Saudi Arabia (26 billion barrels), Iran (158 billion barrels) and Iraq (143 billion barrels). So someone please explain to me on how itSs peoples and babies are starving and are having to eat their pets and break into zoo's and horse stables just to eat.
The Venezuelan inflation rate as of march has pasted the 220% mark. the countries largest bill the $100.00 Bolivar is now worth just $0.04. It has now reached the point where the bills are worth less than the paper its Babylonian paper its printed on. 80% of food is in short supply and the Venezuelan people spend more than 30 hours a week waiting in food lines and end up with very little or nothing at all.
I find it very interesting that around the time Venezuela asks for their gold back things then go to hell. I remember the article, searched for it and here is the
LINK. Hugo Chavez even talks about Muammar Qadhafi and how fast the western powers turned on him after he wanted to go gold backed for his people (
can't have that now).
At this point all we can do is pray for our brother's and sister's there and hope in time things will subside. Unfortunately, I don't believe that will happen any time soon. The power's that be are definitely involved and their laying out their carefully crafted plan. We should all count our blessings and take notice to what is truly happening there. Im sure 7-10 years ago the Venezuelan people never thought they would be in this position. Take time to prepare for the worst but expect the best. You do not want to be caught stuck in a frenzy or crisis when it occur's...
