Correct. Venezuela is suffering as a result of being an oil-producing country, and the same has happened to similar economies. And saying that Maduro is a dictator is nonsense. First because he is an elected representative, and second because America never cares about supporting dictators, as long as they play nicely according to their interests. For example, right now we had a soft-coup in Brazil and the president-in-office is extremely unpopular, but I hardly hear any complains from the mainstream media.
