Jim Wyss, Miami Herald: A nation is vanishing: Has Venezuela lost almost 20 percent of its population?

A staggering 15 to 19 percent of Venezuela’s total population has left the country amid an economic and political crisis with no clear end in sight, a new survey estimates. And those numbers are likely to increase in coming months and years if there are not profound changes in the South American country.

A recent poll by the Caracas-based think tank, Consultores 21, found that 48 percent of all families had an average of 1.6 members living abroad. Based on those numbers, the organization estimates that anywhere from 4.7 million to 6 million of the nation’s 31.8 million people are now living abroad.

Wnu the crazy thing is this:

Helps? What did you have in mind, anon? I'd say the world doesn't have much of a positive track record on such situations. If Maduro was chained back into his probably no longer running bus there's still an entrenched and armed cadre who consider devastation the price a country's citizens must endure for the enlightened policies of their incorrigible "leaders".
I present the Putin and Assad team for perusal as starters. Better it be MY destroyed infrastructure than the mess belonging to you.

Roger thanks for replying

Look I don't know what we can do, I just find it borderline insane that we know this is going on but nothing happens and it is still going on.

You know, I don't mean to repeat it. We all know that every day countless of children women men all die over there and we don't do anything because of all these reasons we have. It's just insane..that's all
