For some mysterious reason, the Idiot's buddies and their progressive economic policies aren't doing very well at the present time!

Various estimates suggest the government already controls about half of the country's food distribution, but that hasn't stopped record shortages in shops and markets. Socialists always double down. When total power still doesn't address the shortages they'll blame somebody else and demand even more. It becomes a darkly amusing game to guess when, if ever, they will bottom out. Amusing from a distance, not so amusing if your children are starving.

What a great line. Half ownership hasn’t stopped shortages, but 100% ownership will? The writer seems surprised that government control somehow doesn’t improve the situation. It must be those outside agitators.

The problem is not Socialism, the problem is too many people for the socialist system to provide for.
They had the same problems in the Soviet Union under Lenin and Stalin.
The solution is obvious and it’s the same one employed by Lenin and Stalin, simply reduce the number of people you need to feed..

I find it amazing how leftest always apply more leftest policy to “fix” the results of their previous application of leftest policy. The more they do the worse it gets - and they never make the connection as to what the cause is... Ideology trumps all... They repeatedly destroy millions of lives in the process...
I really don't understand.

I was surprised to read that Venezuela has the worst inflation in the world.
Even worse than Zimbabwe?
Now THAT'S a socialist accomplishment.
You suck so bad at economics that a Marxist dictator runs his country better than you do.

Gee. Maybe that’s WHY there are food shortages?

Who could have predicted that price controls would lead to shortages?
