What are people doing as economic misery in Venezuela gets worse? Mary Noriega has been bartering with her neighbors to get the basics. She says, "this is super bad." Hospitals can't do surgeries because they lack drugs, says the NY Times.
Many people like Mary supported the socialistic "revolution" of Hugo Chavez in 1999, but it didn't turn out well. She says, “the other day, I found a Chávez T-shirt I’d kept, and I threw it on the ground and stamped on it, and then I used it to clean the floor. I was so angry."
