Traveling Musician Sings for Venezuelans Stuck in Six-Hour Supermarket Lines

I saw a BMW 5 series with a couple of Bernie stickers at my local courthouse this morning. After the Bernie revolution, the owner will have to trade it in for a subcompact.

I hate to break it to you but the photo you list as America is actually a Canadian supermarket due to the brands of bread. The one for Venezuela could be correct. Never been there to know.

[Deo volente]

Thanks. I should know better than to post so quickly before thoroughly checking.

But American markets are as well stocked, of course.

[Tax-chick]

In addition to know food, socialism means nobody cleans up the mess.

[Jim W N]

Crazy Bernie’s shining example of socialism. How can so many Americans be so blind and stupid?

[xp38]

Indeed if not better in terms of selection. Unless you are really familiar with brands of bread you wouldn’t know from the shot. I just happen to do the grocery shopping.

[Flick Lives]

It’s all fun and games until the store runs out of toilet paper.

When I see shelves like that, I’m reminded of the Soviet pilot who defected to the West in his MIG-25 Foxbat in 1976. When he was first taken to a U.S. Grocery store he was convinced it was some sort of CIA prop. He couldn’t believe the shelves could be so full.

Kinda like waiting in airports being forced to watch CNN.

[Lonely Bull]

I can just picture Bernie Sanders, serenading us all with “This Land is Your Land” as we wait in endless lines for that last container of deodorant on the store shelf . . .

If anyone needs a reminder:

[Preppers, take note. This is what a collapsed country looks like.]

Already here in America for many millions of people during the Obama regime. Yeah, it’ll get worse, too.

[marron]

Great Value is Walmart, isn’t it? I don’t recognize all the others...

[xp38]

There are a number of Dempsters brand breads in the shot. That’s a Canadian bakery. If you are correct then the photo was taken in a Canadian Walmart.

[bassmaner]

The sad part of the image from Venezuela is the picture on the back wall. It probably wasn't all that many years ago that food was plentiful and those shelves well-stocked: a reality reflected by that depiction of a large variety of available meat products.

Contrast that with images from the old USSR, with dour clerks scowling behind empty counters in front of bare walls, doling out whatever crumbs were available to the 'masses'. The long-suffering Russians didn't know any better, but hopefully the people of VZ that once knew a modicum of prosperity will wise up and give Maduro the Ceaucescu treatment.

[SaveFerris]

I will come to Costco and sing to you in the slowest line.

Alright, now for my first song. One of your favorites and I’m sure, one of mine.....

I’ll be wearing sneakers so I can run away real fast....

Oh, oops, the link has his name, lol

Man that Bernie sure can figure things out. If there were less deodorant, there would be more food!

BTW Comrade Bernie, I need you whole salary for the next 25 years. Thank you in advance.
