Now, this is news: There are shortages of meat and sugar in Venezuela.
Venezuela is a tropical, oil rich country. So what gives?
Chavez blames "unscrupulous speculators, but industry officials say government price controls that strangle profits are responsible. Authorities on Wednesday raided a warehouse in Caracas and seized seven tons of sugar hoarded by vendors unwilling to market the inventory at the official price".
The horror.
