The minimum wage is $5.21 or 1.800.000 Bs for a month. Now, how could we expect someone to live under these conditions? It is entirely unexplainable to me that this has not generated massive riots
yet. Here are the hyperinflation costs of basic items in Venezuela Remember, many people are paid only 1.800.000 Bs for a month: Vegetable oil 900ml. Bottle: 748.367 Bs Cereal mixture for milkshakes: 900Grs can: 1.057.057 Bs Wheat flour, 1 kg: 398.750 Bs Cheese, 1 kg: 2.160.950 Bs (yes, TWO MILLION) Chicken and Bacon: 2.299.500 Bs 395Grs Condensed milk w/sugar: 566.144 Bs Oatmeal 400 Grs: 550.000 Bs 1 kg.

Dollar price: 350.000 Bs / 1 USD In addition, theres a video circulating of sugar being delivered to the central bank gold vaults in Venezuela: Carlos Bivero @cbivero Only in Venezuela: sugar, brought in high - security trucks from who-knows where, stored for safekeeping in Central Bank vaults... Some of the commentary from the video: Wow, this massive mobilization just to deliver sugar Thats where the store the gold Sugar delivered in unmarked trucks Only in Venezuela When I was living in Mexico 18 years ago, I noticed cigarettes delivered to the convenience stores were delivered under armed guard. To me, this is a taste of things to come. Side note: Think autonomous-driving trucks are going to be riding all over the nation? Not if theyre carrying anything worth stealing, which is anything. Because in Venezuela, bands of roving looters dont even care if its not an autonomous-driving truck its getting looted: Curiously, that YouTube video from last summer is of a truck carrying sugar thats being looted, which helps explain how the state of sugar in Venezuela got to where it is today. And just like the body will sacrifice the extremities to protect the core, the collapse is happening on the periphery, but eventually, it will move to the core of the monetary system itself, the U.S. dollar.
