Offer it and then dangle it for as long as possible. Create a lengthy investigative bureaucratic process for determining who gets it via applications and long investigation processes.
All gusanos will suddenly oppose regime-change until after they receive their compensation. This effectively flips them to your side for a temporary time period and can buy the time needed to get through this.
I know who i’m putting in charge of diplomacy once I’ve taken over the Eastern Seaboard
It’s a really good idea imo. I’m not against it. They need 1-3 years to get through this and I think you can make a process like this nice and slow to achieve that.
I’d rather give them nothing but in an existential situation like this it’s pretty worthwhile.
In a similar vein, I know some people around here are pretty pissed about Venezuela “selling out” to the Yanquis which tbh they kind of are right now, but they are also getting a huge cash injection into their starved economy and can sell off embargoed oil that was about to overflow their refineries and force a devastating shutdown.
From what I’ve seen so far PSUV has kept a firm hold on the political system still which is what’s more important, and if taking western corp money is what they got to do to buy some more time under the incredible threat from the imperialists next door then I think I can see the strategy. If this adventure in Iran goes on much longer Venezuela is going end up with much more leverage. Hopefully PSUV will be buying up kilometers of rope to hang the imperialists with later and avoid making me look like a fool here.
Of course if rather them wage a PPW against the Yanqui invader but that’s easy to say from my cushy armchair. Chevron dumping billions into the energy sector before getting nationalized again is acceptable. They do really need to figure out how to get Cuba some oil again though, smuggle that shit through Nicaragua via a Russian tanker or something.
Maduro offered to give US some control over their oil and they kidnapped him anyway then basically got the same deal from his replacement. The US will do it any way is Lal I’m saying.
Didn’t they already offer compensation in the ‘60s? IIRC prior to the revolution basically all of the Cuban bourgeoisie were reporting their properties’ value as a fraction of the real value, to save on taxes. Fidel & Co. offered to repay them at the lower reported value.
They did. And other countries whose companies were nationalized accepted the compensation, except the US.
I hope they send each gusano a comically large gift box that blows up when opened

fair’s fair, they can have the lump sum in pennies to pad out the box.
I got your compensation right here!
They should include a complementary cigar based off of the original CIA formula.
