It is hard to know who to root for - the labor union or the Communist government. Not much difference.
The revolt against the president's plans has been particularly embarrassing because it has come during a roiling scandal involving the state's mismanagement of food distribution. Over the past two months, tens of thousands of tons of imported food bound for state-subsidized markets has been found rotting at ports and in warehouses. Petróleos de Venezuela, the state oil company, was responsible for distributing the food, which included chickens, cereal and powdered milk.
I guess the food wouldn't go though the pipelines.

You gotta understand the way Baby Huey works. He's never responsible for the food rotting in the warehouse. Some minister is responsible in that case. Huey is responsible for upbraiding the errant bureaucrat and getting the problem fixed.
Problem is it's only the upbraiding, and never the fixing, which ever gets done.

How high up the ladder does one have to be to decide that the oil company will distribute food? Seems one would have to be pretty high.
I do get your point, though. Huey is only responsible for the good things. When things go awry some minor dolt was in charge.
