Venezuela: No teachers, doctors, electricians
A historic exodus is leaving Venezuela without teachers, doctors and electricians
Chicago Tribune
An unruly 9-year-old bolted from his classroom, prompting a volunteer teacher to chase him down the hall. He would normally be hauled straight to Romina Sciaca's office. But the guidance counselor was gone - part of a wave of staffers to flee Aquiles Nazoa Elementary School.
This collapsing socialist state is suffering one of the most dramatic outflows of human talent in modern history, with Aquiles Nazoa offering a glimpse into what happens when a nation begins to empty out. Vast gaps in Venezuela's labor market are causing a breakdown in daily life, and robbing this nation of its future. The exodus is broad and deep - an outflow of doctors, engineers, oil workers, bus drivers and electricians. And teachers.
So far this year, 48,000 teachers - or 12 percent of all staff at elementary and high schools nationwide - have quit, according to Se Educa, an educational group. The vast majority, according to the group, have joined a stampede of Venezuelans leaving the country to escape food lines and empty grocery store shelves.

Of course, none of this is true. Maduro insists that stories like this are false... pure propaganda proffered by Colombia and the United States... nations that are jealous of the success of the Bolivarian Revolution.
Because in ChavismoLand, everyone has everything they need. Who needs electricity 24 hours per day? 4 should suffice! Food? Venezuelans were getting fat anyway. (Maduro, Delcy and Diosdado could stand to lose a few pounds, though) Medicine? A trick! Those imported medicines are causing all sorts of diseases... medicine is a tool used by the CIA and the Illuminati to cause sterility in Venezuelan men and women! That is why HIV and yellow fever and malaria are causing such trouble... they are in immunizations!
