Hi HN, I wrote this and I’m affiliated with the site.
This is a public-source model for what “run Venezuela” could cost per month under three scenarios, anchored to Venezuela’s published budget scale and adding the under-covered premiums: payment rails, insurability, compliance overhead, and legal friction.
Charts included (waterfall, scenario bands, oil gross vs. ranges). Feedback welcome, especially on assumptions you’d tighten.
- jacquesm 10mo agoWhy did you make it?
- jasonmomnah 10mo agoBecause it’s a rare moment where a political line implies an actual operational commitment, and nobody was quantifying it with receipts. I’m less interested in the rhetoric and more in the mechanics: who pays in month one if oil cash and banking channels freeze.
- jacquesm 10mo agoIt's not going to happen that way, that is just the Trump administration daydreaming.
