I don’t care about Maduro, as far as I’m concerned, they can shoot him if they want. What matters to me is walking through the streets of my city and seeing the faces of fear on my neighbors. The military patrolling to prevent looting due to panic. It’s a collective hangover, a horrible one.

It’s 2016 all over again. It’s seeing despair entering the circulatory system of all Venezuelans, only now it’s more sudden, and we are painfully aware of it.

This is far from improving, and we know it.

    These high level guys have the wealth to sue for their pensions. Courts will restore them if the orders they refused were illegal.

      Will they though? Pre-Trump, probably. Today? I wouldn’t bet my future and retirement on it.
