As a Venezuelan living in Venezuela I can testify that what the video show is true. I'm afraid there could be a famine anytime soon. Many people are starving. Many more are malnourished and underweight and almost everyone has untreated medical conditions that could be easily prevented or controlled, but medicine is scarce and the little stock there is cannot be afforded by like 90% of people. People suffering from serious condition are in death row. The government has declined foreign humanitarian aid consisting of medicine and food.

Middle class has completely disappeared since one professional person can no longer buy the basic necessities with their salary. Cars cannot be maintained and you have to make hour-long wait lines to buy almost anything and even to withdraw cash from banks. Even bank notes (bills) are a scarce goods. Things can be bought at half price if payed in cash as opposed to a debit card, because to get cash you have to wait in line for hours for a very small quantity of cash. You are not allowed to withdraw cash twice a day so you have to wait in line the next day and the next day in order to stock up enough cash to pay for transportation or things like parking lot fees.
