    I asked for a number not a video. Don’t deflect please, I know the reasons are not price related.

    I want a number. Tell me why the price of oil dropping is the reason they failed. I want to be educated with a number.

    Here I will help,

    Price per Venezuela crude oil barrel in 1999: _ . __

    Price per Venezuela crude oil barrel in 2024: _ . __

      Why do you want to know? Do you think Chavez singlehandedly controlled the price of oil?

      You know that’s a worldwide commodity, the price of which is affected by myriad factors out of any one country’s control, right?

      There’s no such thing as “price of Venezuelan crude oil” seperate from the price of all other crude oil.

            No u haha gottem

            The claim was made that the reason the housing projects didnt/isn’t working is because oil prices. So I asked what were the oil prices.

            I know the reason is not the oil prices, I don’t need you tankie sympathizers to ‘re-educate’ me. I know how much you guys love your re-education but I just want a number. The claim was oil prices went down. What price was it. You won’t answer because that’s not the real reason. I honestly only barely give a shit about this but I find it funny how hard you guys want to jerk each other off.

              I already told you in another comment:

              The oil price plunge from more than $100 per barrel in 2014 to under $30 per barrel in early 2016

              You’re just going to ignore the effects of that on a petrostate economy because it suits your agenda and then call everything to the contrary “re-education” and “jerking each other off” because that’s all you’ve got. You’re pathetic.

                No you illiterate. I said what is the price when a Hugo boss started vs what it is in 2024. I know you can’t help not being handicapped but im giving you a chance to prove to me that I am wrong. I’m giving you a chance to ‘dunk on em’.

                You won’t answer what I asked though.
