"Humanitarian organizations like Amnesty International and the United Nations have offered supplies to offset the suffering caused by the food shortages, but the Venezuelan government has refused assistance. Even if it were accepted, foreign aid would bring only limited relief to an enormous problem. The root cause of Venezuelans' empty stomachs and barren Christmas trees remains collectivist policies that, attempting to apportion goods evenly, distribute only hunger and disappointment."
Outside aid also wouldn't solve the problems of everyday Venezuelans because the Communist criminals running their government would simply steal the majority of such aid for their own personal enrichment. Venezuela, just like the Communist "utopia" that clo loves so well - Cuba, is, in fact, a diseased and festering hellhole caused by leftist rule.
