This website might be bias but at least it shows where other countries lay on the Index.

what about the life standard? people are queuing to buy food and there is barely any food in the supermarkets and shops.you will have to buy a milk from black market, There is no way you can eat what you like because there is no food out there. i have read somewhere that the average venzuelan lost 9Kg this year only. so how is that not worst than lawless somalia?

did you hear what she said she has masters degree and she is making 140 dollars a month with two jobs. Thats really bad man. socialism is really not good.

PPP is not the same everywhere. It is probably double that when converted to local prices. But yeah, still shit.

PS. Your title is misleading. Venezuela is doing fine when it comes to human development:

They rank near Turkey and above Brazil.

But, that is only one aspect of life where Venezuela is worse than Somalia.

I'm not saying Venezuela is better than Somalia but one issue is not enough to deem a country worse than the other. It's like me saying that the UK is worse than North Sudan because we have tax evasions which means the UK is filled with crooks and corrupt politicians.

Too much of an inductive leap, mate. But, in that particular aspect, Venezuela could be seen as worse than Somalia.

i am wondering where you are getting your information from? because if you listen the video i posted she is clearly saying that she cant afford to buy only food let alone shampoo, toilet paper, fix her car and so on with the money she makes a month and you are telling me they rank near turkey?

They are still above Brazil when it comes to health, education etc.

Their capital has the highest murder rate in the world and basic life is almost gone in that country, people are starving, the inflation is almost 600% you will have to carry bag of cash to buy a meal, so what other aspects of life are you talking about?

Health? whats the point of health care when no one can afford it and every one is starving?

Economic blips can be solved quick. But issues in healthcare or education take decades to solve.

So in my opinion, as it stands, Venezuela is better off than Brazil.

Houndras is first for the country for with the highest murder rates in the world. It might be true for the inflation aspect but the Latin American debt crisis in the 80s contributed to the 800% inflation that Venezuela has.

How Venezuela's external sovereignty is showed in global governances, the policies of the Venezuelan government, trade and relations of the Venezuelan government with other countries, their significance in international relations, if TNC's come to their country and how much does Venezuela contribute to the successes of TNC's that come to Venezuela and any other economic, political and cultural factors that help decide whether or not a nation state is better than the other.

To really judge if Venezuela is worse than Somalia then there will be an excess depth of research to prove why Venezuela is better than Somalia. It's difficult to say by a primary source from one Venezuelan citizen.
