“The head of Venezuela’s stats office, INE, Elias Eljuri came up with the argument on revealing that the latest households’ budget poll showed that Venezuelans now ‘were having three meals a day and even more’. According to the survey released by Eljuri, ‘95% of the Venezuelan population, estimated in 29 million, now feed three to four times a day’. The poll triggered an immediate reaction of anger and fits of laughter in the country transformed by the Bolivarian revolution. On the one side people were furious because INE released the information in the midst of one of the moments of greatest scarcity with supermarket shelves virtually empty.”
