Oh for fucks sakes! Finally I'm able to connect. Dunno if I'll have connection again or what. The battery our phones were charged on a car by a good samaritan.
We have no water and cooking gas is running low, not as if we have much left to cook. The three of us are okay for now if any of you is wondering.
The failure was due poor management and the corruption that allowed our power system to be destroyed by the lack of maintenance. Apparently the Guri damn had 3 or 4 turbines damaged and several other equipments. Of course the Maduro mafia says is the extreme rigth wing and USA. We have been on the brink of this collapse for months if not years and they did nothing but keep stealing the money instead of invest it on maintenance, upgrades and new power plants.
On the other hand people are dying, newborns are dying on the hospitals. My wife and I have prayed every nigth for those little souls. Maduro does indeed allowed by both action and inaction a genocide of our people. In the J.M. de Los Rios children hospital in Caracas the mafia just took their last generator away and left dozens of children and newborns to die.
Guys, there's no much food left at home and what little we had has been eaten to avoid going bad or have already started to spoil. On the streets there is people charging 1 dollar per 10 minutes charge (people with generators). And a bag of ice or a bottle of water is 10$ and I really dont have money beyond like 8$ worth of bolivares on my bank account which is inaccessible anyway just as my PayPal savings/escape money, all useless now.
Gasoline is low too due the pumps not being able to work without electricity and the queues for the stations with generators (3 in total here in my city) are kilometers long. Not that I have a car on my own but this has furthered the collapse.
If this keeps on going for as long as the worst cases states (a week or even more longer, there have been already 3 days), I have to be honest, I doubt we'll make it through, not in one piece. I mean maybe I'll have to scavenge from the trash but surely won't be the only one, and violence is already beginning to undertake the streets. I'll fight for my family to the bitter end if it comes to it.
If I don't post here ever again, well, just don't vote for socialism, promise me.
