What i am saying is that Washington D.C. think tanks should not be trusted in anything they have to say about Venezuela (or anything South/Central American).

This is grade school level media awareness.

I'm not disagreeing with you, but who should we trust, the Venezuelan government? The whole region has quite a reputation for being shall we say a little unstable.

So, instead of changing our unsustainable lifestyles, we just find a place that can support them?

That's kind of counter-productive in my opinion. Cheap gas and sunny weather are not as important to me as being able to just survive.
