Ask people in this city when they last ate a meal, and many will respond that it was not today.

Among them are Leidy Cordova, 37, and her five children � Abran, Deliannys, Eliannys, Milianny and Javier Luis � ages 1 to 11. On Thursday evening, the entire family had not eaten since lunchtime the day before, when Ms. Cordova made a soup by boiling chicken skin and fat that she had found for a cheap price at the butcher.

�My kids tell me they�re hungry,� Ms. Cordova said as her family looked on. �And all I can say to them is to grin and bear it.�

Other families have to choose who eats. Lucila Fonseca, 69, has lymphatic cancer, and her 45-year-old daughter, Vanessa Furtado, has a brain tumor. Despite also being ill, Ms. Furtado gives up the little food she has on many days so her mother does not skip meals.

Yay socialism.

Haven't seen much of the maroon on the right since he outed one, Juan Guzman. I guess that's because he's in no hurry to end up like the maroon on the left.

But at least in Venezuela they have INCOME EQUALITY!!!!

With everyone's income now at basically zero. Except for the socialist politicians and their pet praetorian guards that are keeping them in power.

Which is only possible due to pervasive gun control.
