Food Rationing In Venezuela

[Nemesis]

Just to add warehouse/distribution centres of course they will take these, but as for supermarkets that will be free for all there will be to much mob rule to waste resources trying to contain supermarkets, in a shtf supermarkets won't have much left for long.

Any idea how many people had their 'stash' seized? I'm not talking about farmers et al, but Joe Public..My grand parents told me that hording etc was rife with WW2 ordinary folk. Remember too that back then many people kept animals ranging from chickens to pigs; not country folk but city people.

A book by Harry Patch (The Last Fighting Tommy ) who survived WW1 and served in more civilian roles in WW2 said that if something was not nailed down it got nicked... well worth a read.

To me the cultural aspects are worth a study.

How long will the people go before the threat of the National Guard troops is overwhelmed by they cries of their hungry children?

And how long will the NG troops suppress their own kin and countrymen?

This problem could be solved in a week with a quick coup and request for international relief.

This is South America and they do not think like you do.

In theory they should be doing well, oil, gas, gold, lots of arable land etc... instead the economy is Scheisse
