I'm reading reports of the economic split in Venezuela. It seems that the rich are supporting an unelected Washington puppet, and the bulk of the population are behind the elected president Maduro, who has tried to use the national assets of oil and gold to help the poorer people in the country. If Washington does send Americans into Venezuela to die, then it could be the final straw that leads to the dissolution of the Union. I'm starting to see calls for the break up of the US appearing once again.
This is a load of garbage. Venezuela is racial mixed, poor and rich come in all colors and people don't segregate themselves by skin.
80% want Maduro out, this is a fact, but you can't see it because you don't live here, then proceed to repeat Maduro's propaganda verbatim.
Under socialism the number of poor increased to something like 90% so even talking about a wealth division reveals deep ignorance. The few "rich" that remain are tied to Maduro's regime, and a few rich families either collaborating with them, or surviving with foreign income because they expanded abroad etc.
"Washington" is not sending "Americans to die" (also see UCAVs), Venezuela is in economic ruins and there is no chance for any organized resistance. Over 700 military and police defected and have gone to Guaido's side. If America does nothing Maduro falls anyway, but 60+ countries are doing the logical steps, which is not recognize the usurper, and accept Guaidó's petition for humanitarian aid.
All your "reports" are propaganda garbage from the usurper regime. No more than 2 million casted votes on the rigged (and illegal) elections, yet they declared 8million voted for Maduro. In 2013 Maduro "won" with 200000 votes, back when the economy was much better (bad, but nothing compared to the current hell). 2018 with the economy ruined (by his own ineptitude or malice) and yet he "wins" by 8 million votes (against "nobody", because they declared "illegal" all the main opposition parties).
Furthermore, when people truly vote, all the election sites are full of people from morning to the afternoon, such as when Chávez was alive. Yet that day they were empty most of the day, exactly like the usurper "Constituent Assembly" that declared itself above law and constitution.
Tried to use the national assets for the poor? More like tried to use the national assets for themselves... And you want to aid in their money laundering abroad at the expense of the Venezuelan people. Of course what do you care, you are not the one living with 10 USD a month.
What you call "unelected" was actually elected in 2015, when the opposition won the National Assembly by landslide. The constitution mandates the president of this National Assembly to become President Interim when there is no President or Vice-president, which is the case at this point.
Maduro elected himself, he chose his vice-president, his close cronies put the fake judges (politicians and criminals) in the supreme court after they lost the assembly. Almost everything you say is the exact opposite to reality. This lack of institutions are a result of Chávez, the country barely worked because Chávez ruled like military people rule, but Maduro is not military and is more or less the leader of a gang of criminals, and they know if they fall they will all go to prison, either within Venezuela or abroad.
You seem to not care about their crimes against humanity. "America puppet" is the only thing you manage to write, never stopping to think the socialists are the real cause of the problem, and the true will of the Venezuelan people is to get rid of them (by ANY means) to return to a free market economy and be able to work and eat like it used to be. The people received him yesterday like a hero, despite threats by the usurper to imprison him. It appears that the heavy backing of the international community is doing wonders.
Dissolve the union? be my guest, last time someone tried it went so well (NOT). As if socialists in America had such power... Thankfully they don't, and learning from a tragedy like ours (and the fall of the whole socialist eastern bloc in the 20th century); they never will.
All the people need to do is study a bit of history and economy, and no socialist will manipulate them with their lies ever again.
