The citizens seemed to be enjoying free medical, education and a an easy-going way of life. Because the country enjoyed natural wealth with its oil and other mineral resources, the wealth looked to me like it was being shared amongst the people. Then the US put sanctions on the country and then that was the beginning of the end of the good life. Maduro replaced Chavez after his death and now the rest is history. I'm just trying to learn the true history. I cant imagine anyone being more evil than Trump and his specially selected cabinet. Thankyou for the link.
