Thank you this is an incredible comment, it's so detailed and I love that you explain how a small faction of elites in Venezuela control the supply chain and their role in manufacturing the crisis. Chavez has been demonized but you're absolutely right he has done a lot for the poor of his country and for it's neighbouring countries in the region (Petro Caribe, etc) and much of the context is omitted in any discussion by corporate controlled media. Thank you, extremely insightful.
