Nationalization of Venezuelan Economy

[This post will be written over time as I keep reading the news]

The regime has decided to ask the National Assembly to grant it a decree of "economic emergency! for 60 days, extendable to 60 more. The objective is to face the "economic war" which is what made it lose the election. That economic war modality has never been explained but we were told it was waged on the regime by these nasty capitalist. So it is time to put them under real control.

Here follows the highlights as I weigh them and at the end I will attempt an interpretation. Note: this decree was issued BEFORE Maduro goes to the Assembly for his State of the Nation speech in a few minutes.
