I recently saw videos on YouTube of some tourists in Cuba, and I discovered that the average Cuban in Havana was making more money than the average Venezuelan.

Regime Change Amping Up in Venezuela, with Guaido's 'Tactical Action' and Engineered Power Blackouts
It's wild, they are in a country surrounded by the sea but were starving because the government wouldn't allow them to have any boats lest they escape. Venezuelans should be the wealthiest people in South America but because of the government you can't extract resources or have a diverse economy.

Yes, although it is important to understand that the problem is not only the government. The government is only the visible part of the problem, oil and other resources too, but especially oil has created a corrupted social dynamic, because it has made people believe that they have the right to everything without giving anything in return. People want public education, they want public health, they want subsidies, they want things and more, but without paying for it, the average citizen does not pay taxes, which is good, but how can a population enjoy everything without working? It just is not sustainable.
So yes, the government is responsible for this, in the sense that it mismanaged more than a trillion dollars, divided the population and prostituted the institutions and the army, but part of the fault is also of the people, something that not everyone will admit.
