This was pretty funny. I mean even some of the dumbest reactionaries wouldn't believe this crap, lol. People standing in a queue at night gets picked up by food police in their so called "dracula's bus" , ahahahaha.

You talking about the "reverse tax" citizens were receiving every year?
Yet the economy and country were still operating with some kind of stability prior to Chavez . At present it appears Maduro is losing his grip , those middle class people with money and or education are escaping ASAP . Let’s try it here.Actually Venezuela's problems go much deeper than just greed and they go back a lot farther than the Chavez government. Latin America has an an almost 200 year history of corrupt, brutal dictatorships mixed with corrupt inept democracies. Chavez was just one more leader in a long line of politicians who promised a great deal, but had no idea how to deliver.

Venezuela is a very good example of missed opportunity. Given its natural resources it should have been the wealthiest nation in South America, but it squandered its wealth on vote-buying schemes that added nothing to the economy.
