Last night two C4 bombs exploded in the Spanish and Colombian Embassies. Reportedly, they are the strongest explosions by bombs in Venezuela in the last twenty years. One was near my home, I woke up and thought it was a strong earthquake.
Observations focused on the problems of an underdeveloped country, Venezuela, with some serendipity about the world (orchids, techs, science, investments, politics) at large. A famous Venezuelan, Juan Pablo Perez Alfonzo, referred to oil as the devil's excrement. For countries, easy wealth appears indeed to be the sure path to failure. Venezuela might be a clear example of that.
