You would think that thousands are lined up to terminate Maduro. The problem is...once he goes...who comes in next? And if they are as big an idiot as him...it’s not solving much of anything.
The whole structure of economic balances is dissolved. Just getting some local store a supply of toilet paper to sell....is practically impossible now. If you did show up with a pick-up load of toilet paper, the pricing would probably be $20 for a six-pack of paper, and it’d be sold out in a matter of ten minutes.
The damage done here....would take years to fix.

The even sadder part of it all is that the current situation in Venezuela is the story of most, if not all of the countries to the south of our southern border all the way to Tierra del Fuego! I doubt yo can find a country in that whole area that has not undergone the sort of “extended leadership failure”( read dictatorship) in our lifetimes. It would seem to be an endemic problem for “southern Europeans” (i.e. Spaniards and Portuguese) to be able to successfully govern. Instead, their citizens see their “salvation” in coming to America, then once here, wanting to implement the kinds of “leadership” and “leaders” that caused them to come here in the first place. So, if we fail to seal our souther border, we can ultimately look forward to America becoming just like the rest of our Hemisphere, because whatever they lack in the ability to govern, they more than make up for in their ability to reproduce. And they won’t have any difficulty with Canada, because it’s full of feckless Socialists already who don’t have the kind of spirit of freedom that we had in the beginning.
