This is what awaits us if Sanders is elected.
The fault is capitalism!
The benefits of socialism.
Meanwhile back in the US, Dear Leader promised us: “Under my plan ... electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket”.
But not their pay...
The production and distribution of electricity is very capital-intensive.
Societies that don’t accumulate and protect capital won’t have electricity very long, if they ever have it.
Also, the maintenance of an electrical system requires very highly-trained people who possess skills that are useful in many places around the world and are always in demand.
So sad for this country, the dogs that will soon be roaming the streets hungry and abandoned. The zoos with starving animals. The children.
What a tragedy.
And Maduro and his cronies will just double down on what doesn’t work.
So when does Obama announce a huge humanitarian relief transferring billions to Maduro and associates, and open immigration for Venezuelans who want to move to the US?
Prepper Ping
If you want on or off the list let me know. I’m kinda filling in on a temp basis.
Before Hugo Chavez took over Venezuela and appointed himself Dictator, Venezuela was one of the most prosperous Countries in South America and was nearing first world levels of economic development.
Venezuela sits on the second or third largest proven reserves of oil in the world.
Chavez and his cronies have looted the country and destroyed the economy in the classic Banana Republic tradition.
Chavez started office as a poor military colonel but died in office 15 years later worth at least 2 Billion dollars. Some of his cronies did an even better job of looting the country.
Hugo and his family became so power hungry and arrogant that Hugo’s daughter has refused to vacate the Presidential Palace and has forced Maduro to live in modest house.
To the best of my knowledge, she is still living these.
President Obama is using Hugo Chavez as a case study on how seize control of a modern democratic political and economic system, loot it of it’s wealth and run it into the ground.
So far, after seven years he is ahead of Chavez’s pace
Socialism works! Let’s try (more of) it here!
Sulfur burns.
Technical solution is relatively simple, allow foreign companies to invest in construction of gas fired power plants that could be built quickly, and allow them to charge market rates.
Politically, it would be an admission of defeat for socialists ruling the country.
Things will have to become much worse for majority of folks supporting Maduro, before they decide to ditch him.
“When toilet paper is a luxury good, you have achieved socialism.”
Damn! That Socialism sure works great doesn’t it?
Ain’t communism grand. Coming to Merika soon.
Communism always works. Ask the Norks.
And this workers paradise is a good example of what Bernie, Obama, Hillary and the whole of the DNC wants to do to America.
