美国企业逃离委内瑞拉以躲避该国崩溃的经济 [美国媒体]

Since 2013 when Nicolas Maduro assumed presidency in Venezuela and plunging oil prices began wreaking havoc on the country more than a dozen U.S. companies have been forced to sell stop or reduce their operations in the South American country in order to avoid damage cause by the economic crisis.

自2013年马杜罗当选委内瑞拉总统以及下跌的油价对这个国家造成破坏以来已经有十几家美国公司被迫止损卖出或者减少在这个南美国家的经营业务以免遭受该国经济危机的打击。

In the past three weeks alone Coca-Cola announced that it had to stop production in the South American country due to a scarcity of sugar while Bridgestone a tire company based in Tennessee decided to sell their assets to local investors and Kimberly Clark a paper product company based in Texas reduced its production by 90 percent.

单单过去三周时间里，可口可乐公司宣布由于缺少蔗糖将停止在该国的生产业务，而总部位于田纳西州的轮胎企业普利司通决定将资产卖给当地投资者，而总部位于得克萨斯州的纸制品公司金百利减少了90%的产量。

At least 35 companies in the Standards & Poor’s 500 have expressed concerns about Venezuela in the past two months and many have discussed removing Venezuela from its global operations according to an analysis by USA Today.

根据《今日美国》的分析，至少有35家标普500公司表达了对委内瑞拉的担忧，很多公司也在讨论是否应该将委内瑞拉移出其全球运营之外。

That has left Venezuela already reeling from empty supermarket shelves and a lack of basic goods with a dearth of American products.

由于美国产品减少，这导致委内瑞拉的超市货架空空如也，也缺乏基本的商品。

The U.S. companies pulling out of Venezuela say they are feeling the squeeze because of the country’s hyperinflation.

撤出委内瑞拉的美国企业称他们在该国恶性通胀下感觉到了压力。

any non-venezuelan company that continues to operate in Venezuela deserves to see its stock price tumble. Venezuela under Chavez and now Maduro has been confiscating assets "nationalizing" companies and basically making it a criminal act to operate any business with a profit. They've been doing it for a decade now and dozens of large companies starting with oil exploration and service companies then manufacturers airlines et al have lost billions. Any CEO or board of directors with half a brain would've pulled out of this mess of a country long ago.

在委内瑞拉继续经营的任何非委内瑞拉公司，股价都活该暴跌。委内瑞拉在当年的查韦斯和现在的马杜罗治下，已经开始没收资产，对公司“国有化”。基本上经营任何业务只要有盈利，就会被当作犯罪。他们这么做已经有十年了，现在几十家大型公司，从石油勘探和服务的公司开始，到制造商，航空公司等，已经损失了数十亿。任何一个公司的首席执行官或董事，只要有一半的脑子，都会很久以前就从这个一片混乱的国家抽身。

Wow. It looks like the Venezuelan government ran out of others people’s money as well as their own. I wonder if the Venezuelan government leaders will dip into their own pocket to help the people; I mean they do believe in socialism right…

哇！委内瑞拉政府似乎耗尽了他们自己和其他人的财富。我在想，委内瑞拉政府的领导人是否会掏自己的口袋来帮助人民；我的意思是说他们坚信相信社会主义...

Hey... at least they have a single payer healthcare system run by Cuban doctors... right?  Sounds like a Bernie Sanders paradise.

嘿... 至少他们拥有一个由古巴医生管理的单独支付医疗保健系统，不是吗？这听起来就像是个伯尼桑德斯乐园。

我们也许很快就会知道，生活在一个掌握军权并且脑子到嘴巴没有把关的薄脸皮自大狂领导者手下，会是什么样子的。

At least they got out before they had their assets nationalised like Cuba did. This is the socialist utopia Obama Clinton & Sanders dream of. When will the people of this county eagle up and realize that socialism does not work?

至少他们的资产被收归国有前逃了出来，不像在古巴。这就是奥巴马希拉里和桑德斯所梦想的社会主义乌托邦。这个国家的人们什么时候才能意识到社会主义行不通？

Venezuela used to be the land of opportunity.Hugo Chavez went from a poor peasant to being worth billions of dollars just by being the “Champion of the Poor”.

委内瑞拉曾经遍地机会。雨果.查韦斯通过成为“穷人的领袖”，就从一个贫穷的农民摇身一变，拥有数十亿美元身家。

@whatmeworry1 And he did it all earning $100000 per year.  His "investments" in Exito Petro Casa PDSVA Farmacia Polar Cargil my bank account farm house etc turned out to be fantastic!  All he had to do is put the money in his pocket with no middle man!

楼上，他确实每年挣10万美元。他在 Exito Petro Casa 公司，委内瑞拉国家石油公司，Farmacia Polar，嘉吉，My Bank Account，Farm House 等公司的“投资”利润机器丰厚！他只需要不通过任何中介转手，直接把钱放在自己袋子里就好啦。
