Venezuela is going hungry and Barrack Hussein Obama is green with envy.

Not to worry. Congress has given him ample time to complete the destruction of America.

It seems to work here because the prisoners of the food deserts can shop outside the perimeter (with money provided by those outside the deserts). Venezuela is now the largest leftist food desert in the world...

Bernie Sanders' socialist dream for Amerika.

The ONLY good thing about an outcome like this is that if it happened here, we wouldn't have to argue to term limits because the incumbents would be on the run or in hiding.

Wow, I truly feel for the people going hungry, especially children. I hope the Venezuelan people can find the strength to rise up and throw off the yoke of socialism. This serves as a warning for us, no wonder there’s not a peep from the MSM.

It’s always good to have a running example of socialism in action to provide a lesson to the rest of the world

Venezuela (prior to Socialism) was a huge exporter of food.

As someone who had my children many years ago I’m always astonished when I see mention of “long lines for diapers”

How lazy can people be?

What a Bernie Sanders ad.

If by some chance Sanders gets the nomination, the Republican nominee has a mountain of material to take advantage of.

Socialism/communism is just some people promising the moon and spreading misery and killing people so that they get to ride in the government limousines and live in the presidential palace.

Time to contact Bob Geldof and round up “Band Aid” - that’ll do the trick! (We all know how well leftist rock musicians did in defeating socialist poverty and starvation in Ethiopia).

Socialism/communism always fails, but socialists/communists always justify it, saying that they weren’t socialist/communist enough.
Then they take the socialism/communism up a notch, and that fails too, prompting them to say that they weren’t socialist/communist enough.
And the cycle continues without end.

In Venezuela the takers far outnumber the producers. We don't quite have that here...yet.

The numbers of takers is ever growing, and the Dems want to flood us with more of them.
