Line of Cars Wating for Gas in Venezuela stock photo
{"Image ImageDescription": "San Cristobal, Venezuela - July 4, 2016: As it is usual these days, on Monday, July 4th 2016, long line of cars with people waiting to fill up their tanks in San Cristobal, Venezuela. It may take from one hour, to three hours and even seven hours in the most diffcult days to be able to get some gas. This is La Colina Gas Station, located on Pasaje Acueducto Avenue near the corner with19 de Abril Avenue. This gas station is closed at  9:57 am while the tanker fills the gas station tanks but people prefer keeping their place on line than having to return later to start again at the back of the queue. This is happening primarily because the price of gasoline is still under subsidy of the government (0.001 and 0.009 per liter acording to Venezuelan Simadi exchange rate as of today) and it is so cheap that is very attractive to smugglers to transport it to Colombian border to sell it at international prices.", "Image Copyright": "camacho9999"}
