I asked for a number not a video. Don't deflect please, I know the reasons are not price related.

I want a number. Tell me why the price of oil dropping is the reason they failed. I want to be educated with a number.

Here I will help,

Why do you want to know? Do you think Chavez singlehandedly controlled the price of oil?

You know that's a worldwide commodity, the price of which is affected by myriad factors out of any one country's control, right?

There's no such thing as "price of Venezuelan crude oil" seperate from the price of all other crude oil.
