A Sunday walk

in #steemit7 years ago

Yesterday I went to my wife @marilenaligo to buy groceries to make food and we went like the French (I heard they go to the market by bike or walking) walking to get into each street vendor and groceries merchandise that is in the vicinity of where we live, the variety! It's not much and the offer! either, but the price difference! if it is varied, it seems that people think that the only ones who are going through the bad situation we are going through are only them, because they have prices that are not in accordance with the circumstance and since there is no control of any state agency, they take advantage of this and depending on how the purchase or payment system is (cash, point, transfer, barter etc.) the difference is more abysmal since cash is a more realistic price (solidarity), but as the banks are not giving cash (only 10000) per account, you have to cancel double the value because it is with a point or transfer.

While my wife stopped to verify the existence of merchandise in the establishments to which we went, I waited patiently in the outskirts, since these places (are small spaces and the amount of buyers is sometimes a lot in relation to the space creating overcrowding in the local) to be waiting in front of a house that has a mesh fence cyclone observed an elderly lady who came from inside the house to sit on the furniture of the poche brought a rate with a spoon (do not know what the rate, rice , coffee, oatmeal, etc.) took spoonfuls of the content of the rate to the mouth, sat on the furniture, and as is customary in our land, I say "Buen Provecho"! (there is a pause) then he answers "thank you" and then adds "When we eat, when we can not stand".

This is the current situation of daily life that is lived in Venezuela and in many parts around the world, where there are people who have nothing to eat and here I do not know if it is because of the economic war, the media war, the empire , for the iguana, for the mandrake the magician or any excuse that is invented, the truth is that we have been well maulas as said CAP (read mules or donkeys with spirit that do not feel offended the donkeys and mules as animal) in the election of rulers or representatives who hold the reins of the nation.
