Yes I can imagine the urgency to leave. I also heard that the connected people (government officials, etc.) there are able to exchange bolivar for a significant amount of USD and if you are just the average citizen your money is practically worthless. Corruption is abundant in every society but some moreso than others. I know that the US dollar is in big trouble. The powers that be started sabotaging it in the 1970's and they have almost reached their goal. One day soon the dollar will collapse and all hell will break loose across the world. I tell people to try purchase gold or silver for the impending disaster. I am only able to afford silver but when the S hits the fan it can mean the difference between having food, water, and safety over starving to death. Some would say I am an alarmist but there are many economists who have been warning the public about this only to fall on deaf ears. Anyway I hope that something changes there for the better and if not at least you are able to emigrate.
