CABINET OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
​A MODERN WORLD AT WAR
Topic: The Issue of US Intervention in the Bolivarian crisis
​
Oil, America's one true love, well, behind freedom of course. Venezuela was formerly one of America's largest sources of oil, but recent tensions have caused the Latin American country to begin cutting off any American involvement, going so far as to close the U.S. embassy. America cannot stand for this. Venezuela is swamped with hunger, disease, economic hardships, and power outages, all of which are the result of socialism, an enemy of democracy. It's time to free the Venezuelan people of socialism, whether through more economic sanctions or military intervention, it's up to you. The future of democracy in Venezuela rests on your shoulders.
