How Venezuela Lost $100 Billion (The Economic Autopsy)

Описание: How did the world's largest oil reserve nation lose 80% of its economy in one decade? The forensic breakdown of Venezuela's collapse.
Venezuela possessed the planet's largest proven oil reserves—more than Saudi Arabia—yet engineered one of history's most catastrophic economic collapses. This deep dive examines the forensic economics behind how a nation deleted 80% of its GDP in ten years, turned its currency worthless, and forced 8 million citizens into exile. We analyze the Dutch Disease that killed domestic production, the hyperinflation that reached 300,000%, the weaponization of food scarcity, the infrastructure apocalypse including the week-long blackout, and the transformation from petrostate to criminal enterprise. From the firing of 20,000 oil engineers to the Amazon gold mining operations run by cartels, every decision compounded the disaster. This isn't just about one leader's arrest in January 2026—it's about understanding how resource wealth becomes a curse, how monetary policy can destroy societies, and why 7.7 million people chose exile over staying. The complete economic autopsy of Venezuela's collapse.
