Venezuelan here and I have to agree with that comment on the Film theory video. But, it's more than just food, services like water, electricity, internet, etc, suffered because of a lack of investment and maintenance on the goverments part. We experience daily blackouts, some of them last over 5 hours. Last month one of them lasted 24 hours. The government does nothing but blame the US and capitalism. They shift the blame onto someone else then proceed to ignore the problem. They do that all the time, but like the comment says... you can't really do anything.
