The main one was the elimination of the Large Financial Transactions Tax (LFTT) in bolivars.

This is a move to encourage investment in local currency instead of the dollar?

If you were the head of the party, what would be the most important deep structural changes to implement? You've talked a lot about increasing consumption, using MMT, etc. But I'm curious if you have suggestions about the deeper structures of government and property that are the basis of the real economy.

I primarily use stainless steel and I have two enameled cast iron as backups (just because they have to be hand washed while the steel can go in the dishwasher). They're all great and should be regularly used by my great-grandchildren.

Agreed with your analysis.

I think the most effective type of resistance we can expect given the conditions is not lethally violent but stridently resistant. Mass groups of rapid response protestors willing to hold the line and prevent them from fully carrying out raids or slow them down significantly and wearing them down in their job with tons of riot control type duty,

This is the necessary step to higher levels of militancy, too. The masses will not go from political inactivity to peaceful protest to armed revolutionary militias. They must advance through stages of struggle heightening in a dialectic with state repression. One of our key tasks as revolutionaries is to assist the masses at each of those steps, making their actions more coordinated and effective through our skills and organization while advancing a revolutionary line to keep them moving forward.
