The people live in constant fear of the government, the army and the police. Children are starving. People's savings have been wiped out.
This is what socialism is in real life.

Perhaps there is another use for otherwise worthless paper money. Seeing as how you can’t get toilet paper in Venezuela...

Apparently it’s not even useful as toilet paper.

Maybe they should hire some Haitian economic advisers.

Haven’t read Atlas Shrugged in years. A great refresher. I’ll need to get a reread on my to do list.

The same thing is true of old Mexican money. I found a bunch of bills while cleaning out my mom’s apartment. The Bank of Mexico will redeem all bills—at current value. So the old 100 peso note is worth .1 new peso. And how much is a new peso worth in ‘real’ money? About 5¢. So if you want to cash in your old Mexican money, better bring a wheelbarrow.
Old joke from the post WWI German inflation. Man took his daily pay in a wheelbarrow to do some shopping. When he came out, thieves had stolen his wheelbarrow—after dumping out the cash.

There was a news story (pre-internet) after the Soviet Union fell about shredded paper rubles being used as building insulation.

Read my tagline and buy our companion book. You’ll get more out of Atlas if you do. And Billthedrill and I could sure use the royalties. Check my FReeper profile page for a link to Amazon.

Probably hiding out the same place Al Gore is after his global warming hoax was discovered.
