@Grey: 9.5/10 businesses are still closed, the ones open still have big problems (such as a sweets shop that only had 2Kg of sugar remaining, and with the new prices and the rarity, getting more is hard), and everyone's still on edge. Practically every chinese warehouse shop in the city I live has been razed and completely emptied, nevermind the actual people who worked in them.

But overall, they were asking for it, what with heavily multiplying the prices for even rice, multiple times even on the same day (Rice alone, the basic, plain kind, they rised it from around 1000bsf to almost 3000, then to 4000, then to 4800, in the same day), not accepting 100bsf even after being temporarily re-allowed, all on top of them happily contributing to the rarity of most basic products.

The people were already done with the country, and became even more done with the chinese. No one was in the mood for tolerance.

In other news, the 2 shopping malls that I know were absolutely razed. One, "Las Banderas" was mediocre, people went mostly for the food (which was generally expensive, though there was a coffee shop that sold great coffee cheaper (and everything else more expensive)), while the other, "Traki", was bigger and had just finished expanding (underground parking lot and some changes in structure).

Other comercial places were also ravaged but not as badly. At least 1 pharmacy was also razed, along with a small supermarket with an incredibly ironic name ("El Baraton").

As for the urb. I live in, the rioters attacked some streets nearby, but apparently the National Guard stopped them from actually entering our streets. We got nothing better than a whole beer-box full of molotov, but I heard another street after mine had a fucking Coronel living there, which means 1) They got firearms. And 2) They had fucking SOLDIERS protecting them too. (Still salty for it -_-)

The streets were mostly empty. The largest line I saw was for some banks (since today the old people get the pension paid), and one huge car line that covered multiple streets to buy gasoline (yes, even gasoline is scarce, many gas stations are running out and people also need to make huge lines to refuel their vehicles), though thankfully it moved quickly.

My family managed to buy 5 packages with 10 breads each at horrendous prices. And by bread, I mean the "Mini Burger" kind of bread. Barely the size of an adult man's palm. And my family is of 6, so 50 pieces of bread lasts 4 days at best. But it's something.
