Contextualizing Venezuela
In 1989, Venezuela had the same GDP per capita as South Korea. Today, it is 8 times lower.
We used to serve Caracas with the Concorde. This immense country had a great future: oil, tourism, agriculture…
In 1980, the USA had the same GDP per capita as France. Today, it is twice as high.
Numbers mean nothing without geopolitical context!
Dear readers,
This blog is yours: I maintain it diligently, with both consistency and passion. Thousands of articles and analyses are available to you here, some dating all the way back to 1993!
What were once considered heterodox views on macroeconomics have, over time, become widely accepted and recognized. Regardless, my positions have always been sincere.
As you can imagine — whether you’re discovering this site for the first time or have been reading me for years — the energy and time I dedicate to my research are substantial. This work will remain volunteer-based, and freely accessible to all.
I’ve made this payment platform available, and I encourage you to support my efforts through one-time or recurring donations.
A heartfelt thank you to all those who choose to support my work.
