There's only so much in terms of inflation (50-60-%) and lack of basic, essential goods that a person can handle. People have to eat, they have to wipe their behinds, and they have to wash their dishes, and they can't do any of that easily because there's no damn chicken, flour, milk and other basic goods on the shelves, no toilet paper, and no dishwashing liquid to be had, without paying usurious prices, in VZ. Never mind just about the worst crime rate in the world, never mind government censorship of television, never mind the government throttling the internet to interfere with communications, it's just absurd, all of it. People have HAD ENOUGH.
This isn't just the "privileged" protesting. This is people from all walks of life, including the POOR.
When "Chavista" governors are saying "Maduro is an idiot, he sucks!" then Maduro has a problem.
This is a very realistic assessment of what's going on. Corruption is rampant in VZ, the economy is in the shitter, and the government LIES. That's the take-away.
