Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has promised to nationalize food distribution in the South American nation beset with record shortages of basic goods, runaway inflation and an escalating economic crisis.

During a rally Friday, on International Workers' Day, the socialist leader allowed a union activist to ask for the nationalization of food and essential-item distribution.

But the Socialists would retort, at least it is fair, everyone is suffering!

Venezuela is turning into North Korea right before our eyes.

No food,no need for toilet paper!

Collectivizing the food supply. What could go wrong?

[DiogenesLamp]

The communists always get around to agriculture collectivization at some point, don’t they?

If history repeats, Maduro will declare war on some other Latin American country to distract his citizens from his own mass failure.

I predict that Venezuela’s dictators are going to find a novel solution the current ongoing shortage of toilet paper.

Invade Colombia and take theirs??

"No food,no need for toilet paper!"

No sh!t!

[MasterGunner01]

Yup, that will fix everything — nationalize food distribution. By the way, Presidente Maduro, did you ever get that toilet paper shortage problem fixed? Everyone that wants TP can get it when they want it without artificial limitations? Why do I hear the sound of crickets chirping?

“nationalize food distribution” = Starve the underclasses and the undesirables, while the elite eat like pigs.

As in 12:03-12:53 with the classic "Can I have more?" soon afterward.
