I think one of the biggest problems is we lack an economy of scale. Even though Venezuela is a crisis a bit worse than here, Venezuela has an economy of scale, and can be somewhat independent during this pandemic. Suriname has around 500,000 citizens, smaller than some favelas in Venezuela.
Because of this, we lack factories and other production means, and during this pandemic we are totally reliant on shipping containers for everything other than rice and 10 or 15 different vegetables commercially grown here. We may be moving to Guyana soon, so we'd be neighbors with Venezuela. I like the idea of being able to live somewhere where we could use our crypto to pay for life. Venezuela would be much easier in this regard, because when it comes to crypto, you guys are already living in the future.!ENGAGE 45
