7. You think the media is being unfair to Chavismo?

That people aren't starving? That the average Venezuelan hasn't lost 19 pounds in the last year, because parents are skipping meals so that their children can eat? That mothers cannot breast feed their children due to malnutrition, and these children cannot get formula... at any price? That mothers aren't feeding their babies "rice water"?

That food is plentiful, and people aren't eating feral animals, stealing farm (and zoo) animals for nutriment? That farmers are not planting, because armed gangs are stealing their produce before they can even harvest it? That nobody is planting anything any longer, because the seeds cost more to plant than what Chavismo promises farmers for their produce?

Chavismo is an EPIC failure. Maduro is making Castro look like an Nobel winning economist.
