Desperation much?

So... the US is signaling that they are going to invade Venezuela. The third largest producer of oil in America. This tells meme several things:

1. That's a man

1. The US s desperate. The impending economic crisis is bigger and badder than anything we've seen. Basically it is an existential threat to the country.

2. They are willing to do away with the Trump doctrine, in order to invade a country for it's oil.

3. They are willing to go toe to toe with Russia, who is protecting Venezuela.

So yeah. The hit to the Us economy is making them desperate. Is this bullish or bearish?

piece of shit country needs to get invaded

no, it doesn't literally say we're going to invade, but it is a step further against his government, which the us has deemed illegitimate for some time, than we've taken thus far

if we're indicting him, then logically the intention is to make him stand trial (not that it will necessarily happen), which means removing him

The whole timing of it is fishy as fuck. There are Mexican narcos way more important for the State Department.

Also, this pretty much can start world war III.

>The Russian military has signed a deal that would allow it to send military ships to Venezuela.

>thinks the US wants to invade a country for oil when it is the largest global producer of oil and oil itself is collapsing in price
dumb

WHEN WILL WE (THE WORLD) DECIDE TO ANNIHILATE THE US?

You actually do know why oil is collapsing in price, right?

We don't need oil, there is close to zero demand for it because no one is going to work. Gas prices are at like 10 year lows right now

Fucking based, we love our foreign wars for Israel, don’t we pedes?

Smooth brain tier analysis.

>We don't need oil, therefore prices go down.

Fucking amazing.

Gonna call bullshit on that one, OP. Venezuelan oil is shit anyway. If we were going to go back to this we'd just be jumping into the middle east again.

Can confirm

Too fucking weird that he doesn't speak about other narcos like the colombian and mexican ones, that hold much more of the global drug market (mostly cocaine though).

Our economy is a war economy brother.

To get back to normal somebody needs to die. Looks like you ultra-mexicans are the unlucky winners, lol.

Based we'll get even more dumb spic migrants. Just what this country needed.

>The third largest producer of oil in America
source on this?

That's literally Supply and Demand dumb fuck

>we'd just be jumping into the middle east again.

To get what oil, exactly? Iran's? If Amerimutts try to do that Israel is vaporized in 3 econds. You guy can't go to the middle east again, your zionists overlords would not be happy with it.

>Supply and Demand

And this has nothing to do with it. It has to do with the russians trying to debase the petrodollar, and therefore, killing the shit tier fiat dollarino.

This.

sauce fucker

but how did u know?

ah yes the typical 90 IQ take a la Yas Forums
The US has exhausted all low-hanging wells that can be profitable at this price. Sustaining the perpetual 1970-2020 growth costs a fuckton of oil, cheap oil. If the price drops, American oil becomes unfeasible to be extracted and two things will happen: Americans will either buy the cheap foreign one and be forced to subsidize those economies with their money, or the government will limit oil imports to prop up the bankrupted domestic oil companies and anything produced in the US will become expensive and uncompetitive on the global market.
So the logical option here is to invade other nations and siphon their oil.

Buy offense stocks

Russia is a massive shithole that spans 11 time zones but somehow only has a GDP the size of Texas. They aren't a threat to us and they aren't going to debase shit. But you seem to study geopolitics more than any of us so you probably have some explanation as to why that's 100% false and I have no idea what I'm talking about

>the logical option here is to invade other nations and siphon their oil.

Exactly this. What other nations?
1.Saudi Arabia
>They are already Amerimutts bosses
2. Russia
>Holy shit, better not mess with the soviet bear.
3. Iraq
>Already controlled by mutts.
4. Iran
>This would be bothersome for zionist bosses
5. China
>Wouldn't win a war against the gooks
6. Canada
>They're fine, bros.
7. Arab Emirates
>Better not mess with the bosses.
8. Kuwait
>Already part of the USA
9. Brazil
>Bolsonaro is scary
10. Venezuela
Bingo

Seriously. I don't know why do I have to spell it like I'm in kindergarden.

>It has to do with the russians trying to debase the petrodollar
kek you must have read the western-biased version of that article
i thought it was saudi-arabia who started it?

The point of invading Venezuela in the short term would be to reduce production (and therefore raise prices) and in the long term to prevent the sale of oil in currency outside of the dollar, which is important because the EU doesn't want to be constrained by the petrodollar and has been looking for non US/Saudi sources of oil (Venezuela has theoretically very deep reserves).

The thing with Venezuela is since much of the world has denied them credit largely thanks to US trickery, their production since the 2014 oil crash has been pretty low anyway.

IMO if they really wanted to cause an oil price spike, they would provoke Iran as this could not only limit Iran's supply, but the gulf countries as well or atleast lead to speculation about such an outcome.

Does Venezuela actually produce? Last I heard they were a commie shithole with an oil shortage in spite of basing their entire economy on oil

Venezuelan here, if only you knew how bad things really are.

Nope. It is russia.

>his decision means Russia’s rise to a completely new level of global influence. Now not only political, but also economic.

Why would saudi arabia want to debase the petrodollar? They have amassed fortunes on the petrodollar.

Now THIS is a fucking happening

Fuck the USA. Seriously, when are they gonna stop doing this shit?

They don't have an oil shortage, one of the perks of living there is gas is free. I think the state owned gas stations are supposed to charge but the people that work there just give it away and probably ask for a few bolivars under the table as a tip. There are problems with distribution though, the gas stations run out before they get more delivered but people aren't rioting over not having gas. I'm basing all of this off of this one video I watched about a month ago

How do I short this?

yes, them South American chicks will welcome an invading army of Brad Sluders with open legs

The funny thing is Trump abandoned all of his doctrines when shit hit the fan:

>America will neveer be socialist
$1000 dollarinos for everyone, don't pay rent and your credit is frozen.

>No more foreign wars.
Here we come Venezuela

>how bad things really are.

You have Yas Forums over there. I think you are fine.

buy TAN, puts on OIL

They were really mad when shale took off. The agreement was Saudi Arabia produces the oil and trades it in our dollar so they get to be best buds with us and have all the protections and money that go along with that. Since US shale became a feasible and profitable business module the Saudis had to start selling their oil for less profit because of the new competition in town. So now they are less likely to side with us, especially with our fleeting economy and the myriad of other problems we have.

The problem was that the US forbid any Foreign investment from the US into Venezuela around 2015 and the Venezuelan opposition government promised to default on any loans should they come to power.
Normally after an oil production slump, oil companies borrow money in order to ramp production up again, however as a result of those two factors Venezuela had access to basically no credit, so they ended up in a hole.
It was mostly after this happened that the Venezuelan economy really shit the bed.

Why?, I'm from Colombia, and I can say for sure that the big drug dealers are here, tied knit with the actual government, a fucking politician got caught with a cocaine lab in his fucking mansion, and it was like a fucking nothingburger, ZERO FUCKS GIVEN, and shit like this happens all the fucking time!!!

Really what the fuck is going on.

Yeah, its nuts. I guess those who pull his strings have others ideas

You mean calls on oil.

Lol didn't FARC convince the government to give all their top guys state pensions?

We put a 15m bounty on their President. We didn't even do that to the President of Syria when we said he was gassing children.

>Trump cleans up South America!
what could go severely and irreparably wrong

Lol. USA trying to act like its the government of the world but only when they seem to have some sort of hidden benefit otherwise why hasn't North Korea been invaded? Realistically speaking what should I do if various foreign armies invade the USA to put them (the government) in their place for trying to control other nations?

Flee to another country as a refugee?

South America is well within our sphere of influence nobody over there will raise a big stink about this. Russia on the other hand.....

>Why would saudi arabia want to debase the petrodollar? They have amassed fortunes on the petrodollar.
ergo is what i'm trying to say, why would saudi arabia produce more oil than is necessary and therefore kick off a battle with russia?

There seems to be confusion maybe even intentional lies in the media about this. Russia started the price war and Saudi Arabia has to do battle with them or they just won't sell any oil at all.

Yes, but they just gave their slice of the market to the good ol' Escobar style narcos, there's plenty of them, they are armed to the teeth, and they are using this oportunity to hoard all the cocaine fields and labs, this is fucking mess holy shit.

And of course our government does fucking nothing, sometimes they throw one head or two under the bus to keep the people happy, BUT AT THE END NOTHING FUCKING HAPPENS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I DIDNT VOTE FOR THIS SHIT HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

>why would saudi arabia produce more oil than is necessary

They are not producing more oil. They are lowering the price to compete with russian oil, mainly in eastern europe.

This was what started the first gulf war, when Iraq invaded kuwait, took hold of the oil rigs and lowered the price of oil to debase the petrodollar. The US is not declaring war to Russia because the Ruskies have nukes, but they are going to chop up Venezuela.

I just hope they lose so badly it becomes a second vietnam.

Fingers crossed, mate.

Women have mustaches. Get over it.
