I wonder if there is a market for black market toiletries?

Take a cue from the drug runners, and fly toiletries south?

It's a real shame isn't it. Especially given their resources. There are other countries in South America that don't have near the resources bit manage to thrive because they believe in the free market.

I remember hearing awhile back that people were hunting dogs, cats and whatever else they could catch as the food runs out. There aren't even any pigeons left cause they ate em all. They are in the real deal SHTF out there. Lots of lessons to be learned from their situation about prepping. It could happen to us too, if we keep on the path were taking.

It is a bad situation for Venezuelans, but the only ones who can fix it are themselves.

If their currency is such crap, Where are they getting the money to come here? Especially with no direct flights. Which means they also have to go through customs at their layover.
You're right. It's their problem to fix. Pick yourselves back up and get to work.

True, but think of it:

How much is a roll of TP worth down there in USD?
Anyone own a small airplane?
How much would fuel be?


Hail, the GREAT TP CARTEL!!!!

That would be a real shitty job. (Sorry, I had to)

The shitty jobs tend to pay better.
