This is the Reason why Millions of Venezuelans Want to Go Country
I am from the city of Caracas, Venezuela, one of the most difficult situations that Venezuelans face to get public transport and the fear of being robbed or killed on the street.
Unfortunately in the cities of Venezuela, more than 100 people die every day, victims of the crime that is unleashed in the country.
In my country we must take long lines to take a bus that moves us within the urban centers due to the low supply of transport units that have the public and private systems of the country, moving in Venezuela has become an odyssey. The deterioration of transport is an almost perfect summary of the multiple effects of the crisis that the country is going through, due to the lack of cash, the state of public services and the impossibility of repairing vehicles.
The problem is so serious that on many occasions many of the people who use public transport have had to walk to their places of work.
Transportation is one of the many crises that Venezuela suffers, but it is the one that best shows the situation in the country. The lack of cash, the lack of spare parts for vehicles, the deterioration of public services and the vivacity of some to do business with the need for convergence.
The fruit truck for some months has filled the spaces that the traditional bus has been leaving.
As a citizen, I am disappointed with the government that we have at this moment, since it is possible that a country that has all the riches of the world is in the worst economic situation, where we can not solve problems as simple as repairing vehicles.
Which are from the government or to bring spare parts for these private transport units from other countries.
We are also in a situation where our lives are at risk, when we leave we fear that we will be kidnapped or robbed, crime in Venezuela has reached a level of madness, where the police do not want to work or simply do not help us, that have been corrupted by the thugs who pay him so they do not put them in jail.
This situation is unfortunate, but it is what every Venezuelan lives every day. Venezuela is on the line and it is a matter of time for all citizens to wake up and make this country take a different direction. Otherwise, we will become the second Cuba.
It is regrettable that politics can enter into the lives of families in such a way that they can divide them or simply separate them completely.
During my childhood I could observe how my parents and relatives had long discussions about which political party was better, who had helped more and who did not, among many other things.
As a Venezuelan, I believe that politics is a rotten garbage that does not help anyone, on the contrary, we are full of shit and false promises, leading families to fight for politicians who only live for their own interests and fill their wallets with millions and millions. Of dollars that they steal during all their mandate.
In Venezuela, many families live an extreme fanaticism when it comes to defending a political party, such is the level of madness that families have been killed and beaten to defend an ideology that only aims to separate families.
When I go out into the valleys of my city, I see in the Venezuelans the despair and the sadness in which things and the economic situation of the country do not improve, that every day is more difficult and that millions of Venezuelans leave the country. Where thousands are dying in hospitals for lack of medicines, where thousands and thousands die in the hands of crime and where 72% of the population has nothing to eat.
I hope that one day I will finish and return to my country the joy we lost 20 years ago.
About 3 weeks ago, the government gave the order that all banks in the country began to fill the ATM with the new ticket, which in the last 3 years has virtually disappeared, according to the Government of Venezuela, this would be the solution. For the economic problems of the country.
The government assures that there is a "conspiracy" against the Venezuelan currency directed from abroad. Cúcuta (Colombia) is designated as the epicenter of the vacuum bill, however, there is no data to support this thesis, at least not shown by the figures of the Central Bank of Venezuela.
The truth is that the exit of the new monetary cone has not generated any solution to the contrary, this has become even more difficult and everything in the country at the level of first and second necessity products has increased by 1,500% in less than a month.
The shortage of cash overwhelms Venezuelans in the midst of the most intense economic crisis they have experienced in its history. Obtaining tickets to pay for public transportation, parking or buying food requires investing hours of waiting at banks or ATMs and even paying them.
This situation has generated in Venezuelans a new alert that leaves in question this new decision of the government, which day after day does not obtain a solution to the economic problem of the country.
A week ago I went to the bank to get some cash and it is crazy what I am going to say, but it lasted more than 5 hours in the queue of the bank waiting for my turn to withdraw some cash.
At this point, instead of issuing new banknotes, the Maduro government seems determined to force the passage of the entire society to advance the use of digital transactions. The economist José Guerra, deputy of the National Assembly, commented in his Twitter account that the bill of 100,000 bolivars, which was announced in November and barely seen on the street, has already lost 70% of its nominal value . With 100,000 bolívares, any user can barely ask for a café con leche sitting at a table.
President Nicolás Maduro is between a rock and a difficult place, where the only way out for Venezuelans is for the president once and for all to hand over power and let a new president take charge of the nation.
A country without national production and with more than 40% of its businesses closed, has exposed the serious crisis in the country, a crisis that has increased since the president announced the salary increase of 50 Bs.S ($ 1.50) to 1,800 . Bs.S ($ 20) an increase of 3,500%, which meant for the great majority of Venezuelans a madness.
This means that as the salary increases, the prices of the products will increase.
These companies are forced to close since they can not pay the payment of their employees, since this would mean losing more than 64% of their profits, without forgetting that they have to pay taxes to the government, which means 16%, practically remain in red. Numbers with losses greater than 72%.
Thousands of people are losing their jobs due to this situation and, consequently, thousands of families have lost that small flow of money, which generates 66% unemployment in the country.
"We are in a really critical situation, but not only for the lack of products, but the most serious thing we have today is the issue of the purchasing power of the Venezuelan," he continued, adding that the forecast for next year. It is "good black".
The representative of the Venezuelan merchants also said that they had not acquired currency for two months through the auction system of the Central Bank in the context of exchange control, so they had to resort to the parallel illegal market.
"Nowadays, all imports" are being made "in a parallel dollar, which leads to (...) that the dynamics of prices in the black market also applies to the price dynamics that establishments have in their products and services".
Venezuela is on the red line and every day is more sinking in an economic crisis that presents a daily loss of 54% of small investors who no longer see the business future in Venezuela.
As a Venezuelan I find myself in great need of having to work in 3 different jobs to help my family, we are in a crisis that is already ending with the small future we have left.
The situation in Venezuela is unfortunate, we have reached the moment when we do not know what to do, this is a dictatorship and we are dying, for days in my city there is no light, everything is crazy, people desperate, children hungry. People are desperate, while the government lives in their mansions where they have light 365 days a year, where they eat more than 5 times a day, where they wear the most expensive clothes on the market and drive the most luxurious cars in the world. World.
A few days ago information was given that the price of the passport would increase in price, and that is the worst news for any Venezuelan who sincerely wants to leave the country, since they can not stand this dictatorship where the Venezuelan dies every day. He is oppressed by a dictator.
The minimum salary of a Venezuelan is $ 20, this should clarify that it is not enough because for a Venezuelan to live well he must earn at least $ 100 a month, this is important since the passport has a price of $ 72, which It means that for the Venezuelan it is impossible to buy his passport, which by law is something that should be given free.
You can imagine what millions and millions of Venezuelans are going through, take a moment in our situation and breathe, look to the sky and thank God that you do not live in Venezuela.
