  1. Well, revisiting this newscast in 2021, enough time has passed to see there has not been a turnover of the Venezuelan government as of late. History since 2019 does not confirm the sociologists' view. A civil war has not broken out in Venezuela and the Maduro regime has held popularity over and above the General Assembly opposition. Several coup attempts and assassination attempts failed and V has Russian military support. Further the return of its gold is at issue. Incidentally, Trump should know that Cuba is not a major oil consumer, more gas than oil. The bottom line is that V's oil is a commodity the US cannot buy and when things cannot be bought by US corporations the entire corporate social structure whines because no longer can this resource be used to perpetuate their dominance in the oil market. Understandably so, the world market for oil is fiercely competitive, titanic struggles between corporations take place for regions rich in mineral and oil deposits. If oil need be produced it does not need competition to produce it but competition needs oil to be competition and nations are caught in a vicious cycle of ever escalating conflicts. The US appetite for oil is insatiable losing the largest oil reserves in the hemisphere due to incompetence of the last four presidents to resolve war and conflict in Latin America, its a lost cause trying to get it back. A sign the Age of Oil of things to come when the few are expropriated by the many in almost all the nations on earth rejecting the modernized material lifestyle of luxury consumption and its apparent accompanying social and class inequality.
