Editor's Comment: The corporate media in the United States and Europe are fond of reporting "shortages" of essential goods available to the public in Venezuela. It seems that one of their favorite items for such reporting is bathroom tissue with the expectation that this will evoke some sort of an infantile "embarrassment" factor among their readers and TV audiences. .

The US-backed opposition in Venezuela either hoards or destroys many tons of products in order to keep them off the retail market thus creating the perception of "shortages" and inadequate production with a socialist government in power. The goods that are hoarded and destroyed are almost always items under price controls, thus denying affordable purchases by people with lower incomes. These forms of sabotage are done by the private manufacturers, private food processing plants, private distributors and by the private supermarkets themselves. President Maduro's success in combatting sabotate is largely due to citizens reporting incidents to the various levels of government organized for this purpose as noted at the end of the article. This is known as Gobierno de Calle (Government in the Street), the second phase of President Maduro's program to defeat the US-backed attack on the Venezuelan economy, introduced last month.

(translated by Axis of Logic)

Monday, October 21, 2013 - Over 3800 rolls of bathroom tissue, 440 litres of powdered milk and 1560 litres of long-life liquid milk were taken by order of the Public Prosecutor for being allegedly hidden in a warehouse of the Don Biagio Mini Market and Super Express, located in Maracaibo, Zulia state.

It was determined that the products they were absent from the shelves in spite of being stored in the warehouse, by restricting consumer access to these foods.

The establishment where the goods were found was not identified by name or RIF (commercial registration), however, the property serves as a warehouse of goods and food from the store aforementioned.
