A plot that has been woven for a long time, socialism, communism is not about all this, but whatever it has been implemented in my country leads to destruction. Many who do not know our country only know that there is a humanitarian crisis, that we are not having a good time, that there is dictatorship, repression and hunger. Some left the country at the beginning of the crisis, and for them at that time the country was bad economically, but they have no idea how much worse it has been since they left, so I want to dedicate this post to my country, I publish it in English because its purpose is to make known the situation to those who do not know many things, to the steemit community in its English-speaking majority.
There was a time, until 2012 as I remember, we were a prosperous country, we had so much wealth that even though there was corruption we could live in peace. There was health, education, employment. The minimum wage was enough to eat and there was still money left for other expenses. We have always had the door open for foreigners, we received people from other countries, people who came here with a dream and I'm sure they found it.
Everything began to fall apart when the president died, (although before everything had been planned). The substitute just took power, eliminating citizens the possibility of acquiring foreign currency with the ease that they used, I also he created a dual system for the sale of foreign currency with two prices, a preferential one for medicines and food and another normal one for the common citizen that It was up to 100 times more expensive than the previous one.
In spite of that, medicines and food began to escaze more and more. The corrupt took the dollars at a preferential price to resell it on the black market with profits of up to 1000%, and they forgot medicines and foods. Get the daily food it became somewhat complicated, the queues were getting longer, and many took advantage of the offer-demand relationship to increase the prices of basic articles to inhuman levels, generating malnutrition in the poorest societies.
They began to attack the productive apparatus, apparently their objective is that each citizen depends on them to eat, closed large companies, the prices of articles skyrocketed, many began protests in search of an exit to the problem, but were violently repressed.
Many not seeing another exit decided to leave, most young professionals, leaving their family and friends, leaving a lifetime to go on an adventure with the dream of finding better conditions in neighboring countries.
Thousands of people leave daily. And is that as a professional my salary is 4$ a month, I thank God for steemit that has helped me a lot economically, but those who do not know the platform ?. These rulers apparently hate citizens, all the things they do are harmful to health. People are dying of hunger, it does not matter if they work or not, the result is the same because the prices are too high, there is no freedom of expression, even I could be imprisoned for publishing this.
If you see a Venezuelan and you have the opportunity to help him, remember this publication and we are having a hard time. I think we should all reflect on this.
@themarkymark I know you can read me, you always do it. Usually I rarely ask people for things. But given the circumstances it happened to me that I could get your help. Tired of the situation in my country, I made this publication to inform steemit users about our current situation, (please read). If you check in the comments you will find that the chriddi user, German citizen, was motivated to translate the publication into German, what was collected in this publication would be send to me as humanitarian aid. Here the Geman post: https://steemit.com/deutsch/@chriddi/mein-land-geht-unter-dt-venezuela-my-country-is-falling
The publication compiled a total of 10.6 SBD, this amount was sent to me as promised. To distribute it among my compatriots, I opened a poetry contest dedicated to our country. It is the excuse to send them the money in a way that they feel they have earned it. As you can see, I don't leave nothing for me. This is the publication of the contest I have done:
https://steemit.com/spanish/@jesusjacr/yo-naci-en-esta-rivera-del-arauca-vibrador
As you can see it is a humanitarian situation, to help people who are having difficult moments. But I think that the collected is very little. In what way would I like you to help me?
I have noticed that you have disabled @ipromote and are using it for recreational purposes. I know that despite having so much money you are a good person. That's why I ask you to please evaluate the possibility of supporting us with a vote of @ipromote, you can give 100% to the winner (which if you accept, you could choose it yourself), or you could distribute this 100% between each of the participants so that everyone gets something. You would be contributing with a good cause, maybe it is in your hands to get some families to put bread on your table. There is not much we are doing in the face of such a serious crisis in such a large population, but we are contributing as we can and I am sure that God observes everything we do and that will not be in vain. I'm not asking for me, I'm just asking you to help me help the needy. The vote would be obtained in the comment with which they have agreed.
Please let me know your answer.
Very sad to hear this is happening in Venezuela hopefully soon food, water, appropriate shelter and good means of living finally actually go to the hard working people in the bottom.
Thank you for your words brother.
Hi @jesusjacr,
thanx for sharing these pictures and your words about the situation in Venezuela. #Resteem`ed your post. Hope the situation will be better soon as posible.
Saludos desde Paraguay.
thank you so much friend.!
Your welcome, my friend.
I have a question.
Do you have a chance to trade STEMM / SDB in Bitcoin or US Dollars in Venezuela?
Saludos.
Aca no esta permitido el uso de USD, nuestra moneda es VEF donde 1USD=230000VEF
Es necesario convertir las criptomonedas en USD y luego en VEF o Bs. que es lo mismo. Dedique un post a mis paisanos sobre como hacerlo, si dominas el español este es el post https://steemit.com/venezuela/@jesusjacr/como-cambiar-tus-sdb-en-vef-bs-para-venezolanos si no lo dominas entonces Is necesary exchange cryptocurrencies at USD, for it I used UPHOLD, then you must exchange USD at Our national coin Bs. For it I use airtm, then you obtain your cryptocurrencies in your bank account in national coin.

Dear @jesusjacr,
this is a very good post about a horrible situation.
I would love to translate parts of your article and use your pictures to share it with the German community. There are so many who don't care for anybody but themselves and I think it's our duty to spread your words!
Regards from Germany,
Chriddi

As you probably already noticed, the people you are referring to are quite happy to resteem the article as means against middle- or left-winged parties. Disgusting.
Yes. I feel so ashamed that there are so many idiots round us.
But there are still a lot of people who support the project and that's GREAT!
P.S.: Why don't you write your opinion inside the German post? Only there the right "idiots" might read it...
Because I don't feel like being argued at every day ... :/
Besides: it's your post. I don't feel inclined to argue with samui1970 if you don't. ;)

Really bad story. Do you see already some changes for the common people as the Petro is introduced?
Here haven't food, no healt, situation is really bad. Petro is only a lie. Imagine working a whole fortnight to buy food for a day, and to buy it is another problem because banks do not give physical mony, sellers charge you extra fees to pay at a point of sale or transfer and despite that you must make a huge queue to pay. Of course, if you found that wich you want to buy. Then you must try take it home without any criminal taking it from you on the way. I'm not exaggerating. This is really hard to believe. I do not wish it to anyone.
All my best wishes for your country! Change will come for sure.
thank you friend.!
You are welcome!

Saludos! Oh I remember when Venezuela was a rich country. It was one of the best countries to visit in South America many years ago. I hope with all my heart Venezuela will overcome this horrible time, no more dictatorship, no more Maduro, no more putos that wanna keep all Venezuela's wealth for them. When I was in Colombia I paid a lunch for a Venezuelan because he didnt have money to eat, so sad! I I hope by upvoting your post we will help you.
This were good times. Thank you for help citizens of my country. I say it for the luch a Venezuelan.
This is so horrible, those poor people and children!!! I knew it was bad, but not this bad.. I want things to get better.
Very horrible friend. It's no human.
Thanks for this
All must to know that here is happening
I pray that these dear people get the help that they need!!
Thank you. That my God can hear your pray.
I hope you do well on Steemit. Unfortunately your country was destined for this as they disagreed with America and the west. And their will be more Until the 100th monkey awakens but when it does the world will change and we will look back on this time and see it all worth while. All the best x 💯🐒
Thank you friend.
I'm sad to read about that - and I'm as sad to tell you your article is being instrumented by right-winged Germans to sow hate against more left-oriented parties. As if corruption could happen in one economical system only.
You got an upvote from me and @speedvoter !
Stay strong! I hope earthlings will soon unite.
