Venezuela’s Maduro, Clinging to Power, Uses Hunger as an Election Weapon

Her salary has fallen to the equivalent of $2 a month with Venezuela’s currency collapse. She struggles to feed her 10-year-old son and is unable to treat the small tumor on her breast because the health-care system is in shambles.
