Venezuela is a country that has much to offer, its people are the friendliest of Latin America always willing to help the visitor and leave the name of our country at the top, is our law. In the last 5 years we have gone through a myriad of problems in the economic field, which have affected our economy and our pockets.

Every day the Venezuelan asks himself how long this situation will last, where we do not find the most basic products for any human being, such as: rice, bread, sugar, pasta, coffee, butter, etc. For the Venezuelan it is almost impossible to acquire this type of products, in any Super market. When we go out in search of some product, we are psyched that we can be in a colo for 5 hours or more waiting for a product to arrive or see if we have the opportunity to buy it. The normal thing is that we last 7 hours in a queue and do not even reach to buy.

Going out for these products leads to having to miss a day of work, to go queuing in a super market, and it is a luxury that as Venezuelans we can not give, we can lose our job for missing a day.

This generates that we have to buy this type of products, the street vendors "Bachaqueros" that sell these products at a high price, for example; If in a super market we get a Colgate at 20,000 Bf (0.30 $) approximately, (Taking into account that the $ 1 in Venezuela is at 82,000 bf) so that they can do the conversion, if they are not from Venezuela. In the Bachaqueros we could find it in 80,000 bf (1 $). For a person who earns a minimum wage of 456.507 Bf (6 $) per month, it is not economical to buy a toothpaste.

The President Nicolas Maduro increased the salary that was in 136.543Bf to 177.507Bf weekly, our food bonus was also increased from 189.000Bf to 279.000Bf. Resulting in a monthly salary of 456.507Bf taking into account the food bonus and base salary.

This decision was made in November of this year, it would be the fifth increase of 2017, which had the objective of attacking the increase of the products and helping the pocket of the Venezuelan. The truth is that nothing was resolved, the Venezuelan is afraid of the salary increase, it sounds illogical, but every time they increase their salary, all the products go up in price as well.

Venezuela is stuck in an economic crisis that does not give breathing to an immediate solution, this accompanied by the political problems that generate a slowness to possible solutions. The Opposition and the Oficialismo have been in charge of general chaos in the Venezuelan population, with their inefficiency in not solving the problems that daily suffocate the common citizen, they have focused on a fight of children where they do not They know who is better or worse. the opposition in the parliamentary elections of December 2015, emerged as winners, thanks to the support that the people gave in giving that vote of confidence to this political group, which for years is promising a change, but instead of working for and for the people, they focused on getting revenge on the ruling party, with absurd decisions and thus lost in a direction that according to them, was to bring a change to the country. Added to that the ruling party using its power took advantage and against attack, removing the opposition from the national assembly.

Venezuela is the carrier of the highest inflation in the world, which this year is located for the first time in the range of what is defined as hyperinflation, which is killing the country's economy.
Many private companies have seen the need to close their doors and not continue selling, since getting the currency has to enter the black market, since the government does not have dollars.
When a country does not produce what it consumes or what it uses, it looks against the wall and must buy from different nations a series of products that are essential.

Having a car or motorcycle, for many people in these times has become a necessity, since with a means of own transportation we can be calmer when transported from one place to another. Unfortunately, the prices of these spare parts are from car or for a motorcycle, surpass what we could earn in 6 months of salary.

A few days ago I had to go out and buy some parts for my motorcycle and in a few spare parts I really needed to spend 1,750.00 Bf ($ 12) and I was short I still need to buy a few more things.

The Venezuelano is already at the limit with this situation, we do not see an immediate exit to this enormous economic problem, day after day, many of the young people choose to leave the country, looking for a better life style for their families, that youth with dreams and goals. That Venezuela is losing because of the lack of manliness of a government that no longer cares about its country and wants to consume what little we have left ...
