This is the future Obama dreams of for white, Christian, heterosexual, patriotic Americans.

Witness the end result of the Socialist Welfare State. Once you run out of other peoples money, you get civil war.

Is that not the goal of obama and his underground?

To cause chaos as much as possible?

Oh wait......he is not underground....

Taking bets on the first day that cannibalism is reported...

I'm sure that day has come and gone...

Desperate people do desperate things...

"I'm sure grandma will understand why we didn't bury her"...

Just not reported outside Venezuela...

Not a good day to be a bread truck driver in a socialist country.

They should be revolting against the government that has caused this.

Coming to a neighborhood near you - the scarcities, the looting, the sheer desperation, should we find ourselves completely without borders and with the UN militia setting up roadblocks everywhere across the territory once known as “the United States of America. In a land where commerce has ground to a halt, and “enforcement” teams are everywhere, this will make the scenes from “Red Dawn” seem like a Sunday afternoon in the park.

It’s not paranoia if they really are picking on you.

Obama, Jarrett, Rhodes, Hillary, Mills, Huma, Sanders, Spicoli — all international socialists (read: Communists) in the same mold as the thankfully dead Hugo Chavez. Venezuela has become a kleptocracy with a gas pump attached to it. Can’t and doesn’t grow or make much else because of government’s criminal ownership of the factors of production. This is where America has been heading under Obama, and the process will accelerate if Clinton is elected.

Trump should hang this fiasco on Obama and Hillary — Venezuela is a socialist paradise!!

Unfortunately at least half the country knows nothing about this. And if they did, they wouldn't care.

Hillary is a corrupt security risk. Half don't care.

Obama has destroyed the economy. Half don't care.

We are being overrun with anonymous, unknown, potentially dangerous immigrants. Half don't care.

You would have three choices:
1) Join a mob and try to get something to live on for today.
2) Starve.
3) Ensure you enter that season with a plan in place to survive.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I chose option #3 a long time ago and if perchance, I don’t survive, I have the best option.. eternity in Paradise.

They desperately need either an Augusto Pinochet or a Francisco Franco, someone we may need every bit as much if the Witch gets elected. Maduro deserves the Mussolini treatment.

It will explode in weeks/months - people will come to learn what Obama/Hillary socialism does to people and countries.

“........they would be coming here by the hundreds of thousands. I’d imagine that anyone with the means to leave there already has.........

That certainly wasn’t a problem for all the Syrian refuges plus those who infiltrated their ranks. But for a simple phone call to odumbo and here comes another 150,000 potential new demodummie votes.

They have their money printed outside the country and they can’t pay for it.

In upper middle class areas there are no shortages and no lines.

This is the face of Socialism.

That is actually the goal.
The Party elite are rich and powerful, the military keeps the populace in line, the vast majority of the population are serfs.
Socialism is about power and control. The rhetoric about fairness and redistribution are just means to an end.
