Battling food shortages, caused by government policies the government is rolling out a new ID system that is either a grocery loyalty card with extra muscle or the most dramatic step yet toward rationing in Venezuela, depending on who is describing it.

Government in action. It's the same no matter where you go. Governments cause problems with their idiotic laws, and then rather than getting rid of the idiotic laws push more laws which of course almost always make the problesm worse.

I don't believe I've ever heard a politician ever say "our idea was fundamentally flawed, We'll have to get rid of it."

No, What they ALWAYS say is "We didn't go far enough."

No, What they ALWAYS say is "We didn't go far enough."

Or... "Not enough people heard and understood our explanation of the program(s)."
