Venezuela has abundant natural resources and oil. It is ecologically rich, with diverse wildlife and numerous forests. It was once, and hopefully will be again, a desired tourist destination.
Poor leadership and corruption have decimated this once thriving country. Educated, professional people are fleeing, compounding the woes. The government targeted political opponents, forcing many into joblessness and poverty.
Poor leadership and corruption have turned Venezuela into a poverty stricken nation beset by hunger and crime. Environmental degradation and deforestation are accelerating.
This should not be Venezuela's fate. If only its leftist president, and drug running vice president, would have the decency to resign, or at least change.
Poor leaders, corrupt leaders, regardless of their political persuasion, ruin countries.
