I naturally agree with the basic premise that the issue is oil not drugs.
I question that deficit spending is either threatening or threatened within the US. Further, I find it a tenuous case that US companies are not eager to restore the control of Venezuelan oil that they maintained preceding nationalization, such eagerness being more than sufficient to account for the motives of US action against Venezuela.
For real. The US Government has pulled worse shit for banana companies. The idea that we'd do this for oil is utterly unsurprising. I mean, just look at Iraq
