Yes, I think Venezuela is undergoing a cultural transformation, and I think many people forget your country was the wealthiest and most prosperous in this part of the world for many years. When people get used to an easy lifestyle full of air-conditioning, car transport, and supermarket shopping, I think they become lazy and forget important life skills like hustling and surviving.
The poor people in Venezuela that were suffering even when Venezuela was a wealthy country know how to survive already. I think there is problem in humiliation, where a formerly rich person doesn't want to be seen in public foraging for wild edibles, because it makes them feel like a pauper.
Thanks for stopping by!
