For example:
"We are bringing order to prices," Trade Minister Richard Canan told Reuters during the Catia raid. "There are traders who are taking these products to the black market ... That is a crime and our government will continue to target these stores."Why is the "hoarding" of food illegal in Venezuela (furthermore, why do some even find it necessary)? Why is it a "crime" to sell food at a price other than that designated by the central authorities in Venezuela, whereas in other parts of the world individuals sell food for whatever price they like without causing any gross injustice punishable by the law?
