To see how it got to be this way, see this thread, which is called "Venezuelan military tells customers not to take pictures of empty shelves in supermarkets"

And there’s no way to fly down to Muswellbrook.

Venezuelans, for the most part, chose this. I hope they enjoy the Bern, long and hard.

(My apologies to the minority of liberty-minded, free market Venezuelans who are suffering or were smart enough to flee their country).

This is from 5 months ago. It must be much worse now.

The people can always move to Guyana - I hear there is a Socialist paradise in the jungles there. /s

Very sad. We had better be damned sure it doesn’t happen here. At the rate the Left has been getting their way it might be sooner than we think.

They will all be living here by the end of summer.

In the fwiw dept, there is a large population of Venezuelans expats in the Tampa smsa.

Most speak English well. Except most of the ball players. Odd that.

Dreadful.

If things are that bad how on earth do you get it home safely?

Snatch and grab method of shopping.

I wouldn’t mind giving them some aid if it was tied to every American college professor and student having to watch videos like this.

Ain’t socialism great.

The drop in the oil prices was the trigger. Then you add the rule by corrupt politicians and their corporate buddies who stole the money. This is what you have when, under the veil of a feel good socialist state, you have a full-blown communist totalitarian state. This is a warning to all those misguided Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton supporters who fail to understand that:

Progressivism = Socialism = Communism = Totalitarianism = the Culture of Death
