Gotta love the AP report on Venezuela’s inflation:

“The country’s leftist government has spent heavily on social programs, rapidly increasing the amount of currency in circulation.”

Sound familiar?

Sound familiar? It sure does. So does the below. Sounds like something right out of "Atlas Shrugged".

But earlier this week, Maduro asked parliament for the right to rule by decree for 12 months to fight the economic battle and squash corruption. The National Assembly is expected to vote on the measure in coming weeks.
