Selling the Venzualan diet .
A great Business opportunity !!!
Come one liberal come all liberals.
To the Caracas Collectivist spa and resort .
Prices are fixed. and they are paying an exorbitant minimum wages so no one works it's just one big party. We will turn it into a Hollywood fat farm . Guests can stay in the Fonda bunker or the Oprah hacienda .Visitors can explore the historical ruins of factories and businesses expropriated in the last 20 years see how the locals used to take care of themselves by producing....so passé
Enjoy the safety of your favorite form of govt Socialism as you take midnight scrolls.

    “Previously Venezuelans consumed primarily rice, breads and pastas; now it’s tubers,”

    I once knew an old Dutch guy who told me the exact same thing about how he survived under Hitler...

    During his campaign, Bernie Sanders always ducked questions about socialism in Venezuela and Cuba. Understandably.

      Well with 93% of the population saying they can't afford food something has got to give. The problem
      with socialism is that eventually you run out of other peoples money.

        I guess there is still quite a bit of cognitive disconnection down there, as about 30% of the population still supports the present government.

          I know two families here who barely escaped the place. Trust me...if you don't agree with the government there you don't go around talking about it.

            That is how it works and it as an example starts with riots blocking free speech. While a never ever successful example can be found , the control freaks turn on the socialist collectivist economic tools Controlling prices and wages . Nationalizing businesses (stealing) and then blaming the victims of their theft.

    Please do not pass this idea onto our Cuomo, or the likes of him, politicians. They might actually try it in this country. It's interesting that everyone in Venezuela has a refrigerator, but many have no power, and/or no food to put in it.

    I love to see how in practice, socialism fails. We should study the various policies that the venezuelan government is putting in place to hide the failure of socialism. We will be seeing those policies put in place right here as our socialism fails. We might have gotten a 4 year reprieve with Trump in the advancement of socialism, but after that time our system will continue its collapse.
