It was rhetorical, but thanks for tossing that out for some of our slower posters who were afraid to ask.

See how many bills it took to buy a chicken in Venezuela

This stack of 14,600,000 bolivars, or about $2.22 U.S., would buy this chicken at a mini-market in Catia, a low-income neighborhood of Caracas on Aug. 16.

Children of Venezuela, Victims Of Leftist Politicians, Scavenging For Food In The Streets Of Brazil

Starving Venezuelans fleeing across the border to Brazil have become a common sight around the dumpsters of the country’s biggest border cities, sending their children to find edible garbage to survive. The images, mirroring the reality in their home country, have triggered a backlash among the local population, Brazilian outlet Globo reported on Wednesday.

Sad. Even those who had professional careers as Doctors, etc have turned to prostitution to survive. Maybe Sean Penn and Michael Moore could make a movie about it and star Danny Glover and Harry Belafonte.

Have no fear. The Clinton foundation will step in and supply them with aid. They did a stand up job in Haiti.

The idea about taking military action in Venezuela came from Trump last year along with some other advisers who told him about gunboat diplomacy (invasions of Panama and Grenada in the 1980s) Tillerson and McMaster talked him out of it. Tillerson and McMaster are no longer there and the idea has come up again. This the second time this year the idea has come up.
NSC's Juan Cruz is one of the advisers who has brought it and may be shopping the idea around for support in Congress.
