Chavez did one thing right in getting back his countries gold. Maduro is the traitor that is selling back to the bankers! If I could be dictator for Venezuela I would have crashed the whole financial system, ran out the bankers, and restarted with a gold backed currency. A gold backed currency would have the local economy moving forward again. Gold coins would be about 10% gold. The people would at least have the wealth of the country in their hands.
