The US ruling class has spent the past 50 years testing the parameters of the consumer class (to make it as small as possible without creating significant drawbacks to domestic spending) and the broke/indebted working class (to make it as big as possible without triggering full societal breakdown).

This is Trump's world of pure corruption for personal gain, and screw the people of the United States, much less the people of Venezuela on display.
