Venezuela's Chavista voters discover Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs.

Nary a peep from the "popular sectors" during last years demonstrations in the face of dictatorship and repression. My, how things change when the people who promised you "free everything" cannot even give you the free Christmas hams Chavismo promised you in return for your vote and your silent obedience.

"They promised us the pork hind legs, chicken, meat," Aracelis Hinojosa told CNN, "but nothing has been delivered. I am 100% Chavista, I don't deny that, but the same way that we have voted for the President, we can also stop [supporting him]."

Early morning looting in Maracay left empty settlements and 20 detainees
January 3, 2018

ND / Jan 3, 2018.- Maracay lived very tense hours of vandalism, looting and arrests at dawn on Wednesday. At least 20 people today are behind bars for destroying and stealing the populous Farmatodo from Las Delicias.

Videos and images disseminated by social networks gave an account of how the place was, and several other locations in the town after a group of people decided to break into them and take everything they could.

The Aragua Police appeared in the place and apprehended everyone they could. The whole place is fenced and under the constant patrols of the police officers.

There are already several similar incidents that have been seen in different cities of the country.
