Food as a weapon - it worked in the Ukraine and the Sudan and in Zimbabwe, why not here?
Exactly. Also, don't forget that Barry's local idol, Hugo Chavez, has heavily nationalized the domestic (VZ) agriculture industry and redistributed the agricultural lands - with the result that Venezuela, for the first time ever, is now being forced to buy its food from abroad. Naturally, distribution of this food is all dependent upon the largesse of Hugo.
I'm sure Barry would love to redistribute our agribusiness farms as well, and it would have the same result: the most successful agriculture in the world would suddenly be reduced to Third World status, and we'd all be waiting in line for Obama, probably in his Idi Amin uniform, to throw us an occasional handful of grain bought from China.
Bingo.
Words fail how bad such a proposal is.
