About what happens in Venezuela

Venezuela is a paradise without equal. A beautiful land awarded by God with all climates: desert, perpetual snow, beaches and forests. Your precious people are hard-working, humble, simple and kind.
But for more than a decade, this spectacular land has seen its once prosperous economy decline to the lowest levels of misery and poverty, thanks to the blatant political system that only seeks its own benefit, instead of the collective one.
The oil boom, the use of all the fertile lands and the multiple mining reserves are only memories that a Venezuela that lived the boom until the year 98, when the leftist revolution wanted to overturn it, and what did it ... destroying everything to his step.
Hunger and desolation, that's what there is now.
The incompetence of some is now the misery of all Venezuelans who, with tears in their eyes, see daily how a loved one goes to another country in search of financial stability to be able to support those who remain in their native country, with less money in the pocket, less market in their pantries .. almost no medication or resources to work.
The sick now prefer to die rather than see themselves without medical treatments.
Newlyweds prefer not to be parents rather than suffer from formula or diapers that are extremely expensive and impossible to find.
The students prefer to decline to their university careers and migrate to wash pocetas, since there is no use for a title in the face of corruption and bureaucracy.
University and school teachers view the desertion with despair.
Prisons are full of prisoners who have not received dignified treatment, food or clothing.
Now work is a hobby, for bad pay. Broken shoes have become summer shoes, because they can not be worn when it rains.
The impotence of the Venezuelan is our daily bread to see the light bulbs flicker because at any time the electricity will go.
A country rich in water sources suffers the onslaught of global warming and the lack of maintenance of its dams and reservoirs. They spend days without water service.
A country rich in gas reserves ... and there is no gas for kitchens or water heaters. Even children now have to bathe with ice water.
To buy a chocolate bar you have to work a whole week.
To buy a whole chicken, you have to work a full month.
To buy a kilo of meat ... two at least.
Unable to buy anything else.
Hyper inflation is the best companion for breakfast, or lunch. Of the dinner not because there are few of the privileged of the upper middle class who can sit down to share the bread before going to sleep.
My country .. how much misery there is in my country.
How many broken hearts has this revolution left?
How many families have you separated?
How many deaths have left after the absence of doctors and medicines, medical equipment and supplies?
It is not a horror movie.
It's the sad reality.
