When they entered the empty and decaying factory, they found a machine that ran on static electricity and created toilet paper out of excrement.

Green leaves off of herbaceous plants work very well too, just make sure they are not poisonous. Ouch!

“found a machine that ran on static electricity and created toilet paper out of excrement.”

The socialist machine creates excrement out of everything.

Okay, where do they get the money to pay the workers and buy the raw materials?

Maybe something like this

Kimberly-Clark: Outlaws!

“Forty-eight hours ago, without notice, a U.S. company called Kimberly-Clark, violating national laws and the constitution, fired almost 1,000 workers from its production plant, closed the door and left the country,”

Actual quote from President Maduro.

Lack of TP is not a problem in Maduro’s grand vision

He is making Islam and Sharia the law of the land

Good Luck to them.

It’s one thing to own a tissue machine. It’s another to get it to produce a twenty foot wide sheet at 70 mph.

See Zimbabwe farming for similar results.....

You know, one of the scenarios we didn't examine in our book was the grim possibility that it wouldn't take any strike by the producers to force Atlas to shrug. No Destroyer, no conspiracy. The idiots can be stupid enough to screw it up all by themselves. And the flip side of that is that there isn't going to be anyone waiting in Galt's Gulch to bail them out if and when they come to their senses.

These guys have managed to screw up toilet paper. Reflect on that. Toilet paper. They can't make bum-wad. Wow.

No one was in the Gulch in Zimbabwe. Of course, mugabe just killed the productive ones.

Sorry Charlie, Madoro can't even afford to pay the printing costs for paper and ink to print worthless bank notes

How's that for a solution to an inflationary depression.

Maduro managed to by pass that traditional phase of economic crisis and went directly to total economic collapse

Every company should close the doors on this hellhole, cut losses, and leave. The bad situation will have to get even worse before it might ever get better someday down the road.

They won't have had to; paper machines are VERY finicky beasts.
