Venezeula's crazy supermarket economics

Newshour

Available for over a year

Tim Franks goes shopping in Caracas. Some shelves are full, but the baskets are empty. Many staples - including rice, flour and toilet paper - are in short supply and prices go up almost daily: "It's almost the minimum monthly wage for one not-very-special bottle of wine". Picture shows a well-stocked supermarket in Caracas. (Credit: 麻豆社)
