I don't care about Maduro, as far as I'm concerned, they can shoot him if they want. What matters to me is walking through the streets of my city and seeing the faces of fear on my neighbors. The military patrolling to prevent looting due to panic. It's a collective hangover, a horrible one.

It's 2016 all over again. It's seeing despair entering the circulatory system of all Venezuelans, only now it's more sudden, and we are painfully aware of it.

This is far from improving, and we know it.

If we were going to intervene militarily somewhere, the most moral and most likely-to-be-effective choice IMO would be Haiti. It's right next door and is relatively small. They need the Army Corp of Engineers to rebuild infrastructure, and a ton of police action. Establishing a stable government would make a huge improvement in the lives of Hatians.
