Summary: Venezuela plays a big role in latin america’s economy. In 2016 it had ups and downs, huge changes to the rules, multiple strikes from the booming agricultural workers that sent Venezuela’s economy down the drain. This inspired Venezuelan legislatures to create new rules regarding how the economy of 2017 will be played out. Not all the rules have been released yet, but when they do it is sure to start a ruckus.
My Opinion: I feel bad for Venezuelans because when they try to stand up for the strict rules of the government they are fought back down again by new laws.
How this affect the venezuelan politics: This sparks controversy within the Venezuelan politics because there has been an ongoing conflict between the businessmen and the farmers on pay, working conditions, etc.
