Observations focused on the problems of an underdeveloped country, Venezuela, with some serendipity about the world (orchids, techs, science, investments, politics) at large. A famous Venezuelan, Juan Pablo Perez Alfonzo, referred to oil as the devil's excrement. For countries, easy wealth appears indeed to be the sure path to failure. Venezuela might be a clear example of that.
The horrifying scene above is no different from what a person very close to me went through in October 2010. Innocently go into a Farmatodo(A CVS, Walgreen look alike)o this one in Los Palos Grandes you are intercepted in the parking lot and a shootout ensues. The difference in this case is that the guy was shot dead by the hoodlums, which included a woman.
My good friend survived…
The Devil’s Excrement
