Looks like the balloon is going up FReepers.
Entering full police state mode before the total collapse.
Fill up your gas (petrol) tanks, they are major suppliers to the US.
How socialism and “making us all equal” always ends...
Scary stuff !
.
Amazing how so many people can’t grasp that stuff has to be PRODUCED by people, it doesn’t just happen, it isn’t manna appearing on the ground every morning, it doesn’t grow on trees (and even that which does needs tending & harvesting effort), it isn’t a natural resource which can be dug/pumped out of the ground (and even that which is requires acquisition & processing effort).
Before the country completely collapses, can someone please interview the leaders and ask “where the he11 do you think gasoline and toilet paper and cheeseburgers come from if a seriously insufficient number of people are motivated to produce them?” Heck, would someone please do the same with Hillary & Bernie? Maybe Trump will...
So when Maduro ultimately flees for his life to Cuba, I’m sure that he will bring whatever transportable booty he can muster with him, such as gold bars, relics, fine art, and whatnot.
I have to say that these sociopathic “champions of the people” are admirably adept at fooling the sheeple (and I’m not excluding this country). Look at Dilma Roussef of Brazil. Look at the Wookie.
The list is endless.
Probably not really happening .... seen nothing on the MSM! /s
Ping.
Would make a nice clinical case study of the evils of socialism. But of course our communist professors will claim the right wing is to blame.
YIPPEE! A CRISIS TO EXPLOIT!
If history is any guide, this should leave a respectable number of dead bodies behind.
Send Kevin Spacey, Danny Glover, Sean Penn et al. over to their “paradise” for the rescue.
Did Sean Penn keep his cup and boat?
Manuro taking orders from George Soros and David Rockefeller I’ll bet. Need gas back up to $5 per gallon in the US. How dare the peons think they can have cheap energy? Cheap energy doesn’t meet the IMF/World Bank goals of an enslaved planetary populace of around 600 million.
I was wondering how they were going to do it. Won’t work though. High prices mean more fracking and drilling.
I know people from Venezuela, including my son’s Spanish instructor last semester. They’re glad to be here!
Watch for a move by the Iranians. If not, Maduro’s on thin ice. Troops have to be fed and militarizing the broader populace is just shorthand for “over here, if you want to eat”.
This is going to devolve into a huge humanitarian crisis. Been a long time since we’ve seen it this bad in this hemisphere. Completely self-inflicted, too.
If the US had an actual leader right now, the relief operation here would be a dry run for building a regional coalition to deal with post-Castro Cuba. Make your mistakes in Vz, learn, be ready for opportunity.
Holy crap. Praying for those trapped there.
Chavez ran on hope and change. Then he changed their Constitution so he wouldn’t leave. Until he died, and there’s Maduro now.
How to wreck a civilized country.
