Are they in the midst of a terrible depression? No - they're not a rich country, to be sure, but according to you, because of Chavez, things are going great!

The trouble with the concept of sticking with a leader through a crisis is that depending on how you define a crisis, countries are always facing them. Or they can be cooked up pretty easily.

-Arrian By every sense of the word the economy of Venezuela was in a depression in 1998. The people in Venezuela aren't all doing well yet, not by a long shot, and they still have very dangerous enemies.
