Venezuela downhill
National guards and pro-government militia shooting or intimadating protesters, periodists, etc... government trying to blackout internet and all media to avoid dispersion of news. Economic chaos in a country floating on oil.
What is more pathetic than the chaos in Venezuela (which has been slowly brewing for many years under Chavez, the Castros and now this clown Maduro, for anyone who is not living under a rock) is the silence and hypocrisy of the region. Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Bolivia and Ecuador are supporting Maduro for economic reasons and political affinity. Many of these populistic and pseudo-democratic regimes are not doing exactly the same in their countries (taking all the power available, leaving an empty shell of democracy) just because their cannot currently do it, not for lack of wanting.
