An unbelievably poor country, playing a good hand of cards, what happened to Venezuela

> > Can you believe it? There is an unbelievably poor country in South America. The oil reserves here are the first in the world and the natural gas reserves are the eighth in the world. The per capita arable land area is as high as 20 mu. It is rich in seafood and not lacking in pearls. There is a table full of Han Chinese, but this country has beaten a good hand of cards. Now it can only "beg for food while guarding the golden mountain", and it is so poor that it can't even pull shit. This country that has become synonymous with the third world is Venezuela, then Why did Venezuela, once rich in the past, fall from heaven to hell? Why are you messing around like this today? >

When it comes to oil powers, Saudi Arabia, with "a piece of cloth on my head, I am the richest in the world", is a well-deserved first place in many people's hearts, but in fact, Venezuela's oil reserves even have to stand aside even Saudi Arabia, plus the gold mines here As well as the output of diamonds and other products, even if the people cannot be all rich, they can ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing. It is understood that every household here has a large cabinet specially designed to put money. People walk on the street and see the money on the ground. Don't bend over to pick it up, do you think they "treat money like dung"?

In fact, today's Venezuela is simply impoverished. The people have no food and clothing, and there is no scene of prosperity in the past. I believe many friends are very curious, why is Venezuela like this? Click a favorite and follow, we will continue to look down.

Can you believe that Venezuela, the world's leading oil power, can hardly even solve the problem of food and clothing? As we all know, Venezuela is known as a "country sitting on a cornucopia", but why has it become a country that is a headache for the United Nations? This starts with the experience of Venezuela.

Back in December 1922, the British Shell company suddenly discovered oil in Venezuela, and the oil gushing out tens of meters high directly spurted the national transportation of Venezuela to a climax. Major oil companies settled in one after another, and soon oil production It exceeded 100 million barrels and became the world's largest oil exporter. Then Venezuela demanded half of the oil export profits of foreign companies. It is precisely because of this that this country has reached the peak of its life. In 1950, Venezuela's per capita GDP It has grown to more than 7,400 US dollars, but Venezuela is still unhappy when it makes money. It is hard to grasp the profit of the other half. It is understood that at that time, American oil companies accounted for 70%, and the United Kingdom accounted for 26%. No country was easy to mess with. It was a bit risky to take it back and do it myself, so I came up with Saudi Arabia's idea to let it be a "early bird".

Until 1970, Saudi Arabia really put forward a proposal to take back the oil company. Unexpectedly, the United States agreed to it for the first time, but Venezuela was only thinking about the opportunity, and instead exhausted the national fortune that it had finally accumulated. What happened during this period? what? Click a favorite and follow, we will continue to look down.

"People are not enough to swallow elephants", which means Venezuela. It could have gained a firm foothold in the world by virtue of its oil exporting power, but it has made a bad hand of good cards because of a wrong decision. First of all, Venezuela does not have a good time for Saudi Arabia, and It also used a very tough method to directly throw the price of 1.1 billion US dollars, which means that it has to be sold even if it is not sold. Money is used to win people over to consolidate its position, and even a series of "free" policies have been introduced one after another, bringing the already wealthy country downhill.

Again, the cost of oil extraction in Saudi Arabia is 15 dollars, while Venezuela is as high as 25 dollars. It is sold and sold and found to be losing money. In order not to stop giving benefits to the people, the government prints money frantically, and it ends with inflation. People here Although everyone is a billionaire, the price is a bit ridiculous. For example, in the local area, 1 million can only buy 2 catties of rice, but a roll of toilet paper can be sold for 2.6 million. Venezuelans are so poor that they only have money left, and they have to loot even to buy daily necessities. Many people are not fed and clothed, and there are even looters where there is food.
