$1500 for a Crate of Egg!!
I was watching CNN earlier today. What caught my attention was the ridiculous amount of money a crate of egg was going for which further prompted me to look deeper into the crisis that has siezed Venezuela.
It is not just the price of the eggs that made news but that Nicolas Maduro has won a second term in office even though the country has failed it's people in the immortal words of CW Green Arrow . Maybe Oliver Queen should consider moving to Venezuela to fight the corrupt tacticians that has laid siege to the economy.
It has become so bad that the people don't have access to clean drinking water, wide spread hunger, little to no electricity and disease thought to have long been eradicated have not only resurfaced but is claiming many lives on a daily basis.Even though it is one of the largest producers of Crude Oil in the world slightly below Iran, it's currency has lost value against the dollar.
If President Nicolas Maduro truly has his people's best interest at heart he should quit his socialist mumbo-jumbo system of government and maybe open a dialogue with the west so that Sanctions placed on his country would be lifted so that the much needed relief that his countrymen and women sorely needs would be provided to them.
Frankly I think it's time for old world era leaders like this to honorably step away from the affairs of government and let the younger generation take over the reigns of government.
