Fracking greatly increases that amount.
Todd, educate this man.
Life in the Big City of Utopia.
Coming to a neighborhood near....if you let Hillary in the White House.
This cannot be a surprise.
It’s only a matter of time before the cannibalism starts.
Welcome to the End Game of socialism!
See tagline.
Elections matter. Trump should make campaign ads featuring the real life devastating consequences to the poor and Middle Class of electing Leftists to power.
What is she saying about this?
Here are links to lists of articles written by some of the better analysts, in my opinion.

Over the past 10 or so years, my sympathy for the people in 3rd World hellholes has disappeared.
I clicked through the slide show at the website. One of the pictures summed up Venezuela and nations like it perfectly. A woman with her FIVE kids living in a tiny little shack.
These people can barely feed themselves, but they continue to pump out babies.
Socialism is only partly responsible for most of Venezuela's problems. Culture and genetics play a big part, too. Socialism is a result of R Selected culture and genetics.
What is happening in Venezuela is the inevitable conclusion to societies filled with R- Selected people.
There are a lot of Youtube videos on the R/K Selection Theory. I recommend this one by Stefan Molyneux:

Petrobras is a Brazilian company, but Brazilian oil has pushed some tall tales for notoriety and money at times.
The is no up side in expending the calories to grow food if you know you will never be allowed to eat it.
Ah the joys of communism, this should what Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clinton, and imam Obama all want for America.
What, like they can't grow anything without chemical fertilizers? That sounds like a load of manure. Oh, wait, that load of manure is great fertilizer. Till some into the soil and they'll have sugar.
A couple days ago, there was a thread about a farmer who's family was supposedly starving. Their picture looked healthy enough and the wife could stand to lose some pounds. He was growing corn, beans and potatoes but claimed it wasn't enough. Funny how he had a satellite dish on his roof and what looked like big bad speakers in the living room. He said there was nothing in the fridge but it was plugged in. Outside the home there were flowers growing and lots of bare land that could have been planted with food if they were truly going hungry. He also said there were bugs in the corn, well, his half dozen kids could have been out there picking the bugs off, weeding and watering just like I do. Sorry, while there are troubles there, I'm not believing half of it. If your kids are starving, then you do not have flowers and bare land.

Regarding thackney,...

...who was very agreeable and informative.
It’s been slowly underway (boiling pot/frog) for 50+ years, and if we get 4-8 more years of what we’ve just been through, we’ll be almost unrecognizable, as a nascent socialist hellhole.
I have lost contact with her. Her name is Lourdes, and she was in a parallel masters program.
I know she was last working in Caracas in a government financial position.
She’s undoubtedly in hardship, now.
Pity. Thackney is a good dude. So is DoughtyOne.
