Venezuela: End of the Line

     So, the Maduro government has run out of money and there's no more coming its way.  The government announced that it will not make its upcoming bond payments.  With inflation projected to run at 1000%, the future of the country looks grim, indeed.  The policies that Maduro put in place have bankrupted the country, forced millions to cash in what little they had to ward off starvation.  Crossing the border to find food is the new way of life for Venezuelans.  It is sad for those citizens who have no power, no hope, and no future.  The incompetence at the top levels of government is astounding, but very real.  As they desperately cling to power, they increasingly depend on fantasy to get through the day.   As we say in America, "Hope is not a strategy".  NObody has told Nicolas Maduro, the sad excuse of a leader.  The party in power owns him, and they are stuck with him.
Tis a sad day  for all of Venezuela and its people.
     Where is the O.A.S.?
