No. In (idea) capitalism it would be normal for the energy to be sold and a price emerging from the supply and demand.

They are not 'stealing' the energy 'from other citizens' they are using the energy that the bad repressive government of Venezuela provides. Its the governments prorogative to subsidize energy, and they have to deal with the consequences.

I however agree that 'in the midst of a socialist hell' is not an apportierte way to write an article.
