Let’s Go Live in Venezuela
Inflation: 720% GDP growth rate: -14%…that’s a minus 100 Bolivars worth 5 cents Hospitals: Try getting supplies Supermarkets: Try getting food, diapers, fruit…anything Suspended from the Mercosur Women crossing border to sell hair Government takeover of everything
How’s that working Danny Glover? How’s that Sean Penn? A great country destroyed by Hugo Chavez and now super Hugo in Nicholas Maduro and he still runs the joint.
Actually, one could have another take on Venezuela:
The natural course of capitalism….. IE: The concentration of wealth.
The elite taking it all, leaving the common people with nothing.
A tug, and a pull.
The elite pull for everything they can get.
The little guy tugs back, …..for at least a share of something…
The elite have the money, they purchase the power of government, and with it the power of military force.
The long suffering people get federalies, death squads, and blood in the streets.
The result; The South American capitalist police state.
The elite feeding like pigs, sitting atop a trash dump.
The little guy vomits.
They rise up, “socialist revolution,” they scream, and they take down elite.
Socialism rises.
The promise of an equal share…..
Cept,, nobody works, but everybody expects …..
And the expectation of socialism is filled ,,,( er sort of.. ), everybody gets an equal share of the same bar of soap.
Except of course for elite the ruling class; under socialism, they each get their own bar of soap.
And the common people who just wanted relief from runaway capitalism, now suffer under the rule of runaway socialism.
And the socialists at the top have the money, and with the money they purchase the power of government, and military force .
And the suffering people, get federalies, death squads, and blood in the streets.
The result;The South American socialist police state.
The elite feeding like pigs, sitting atop a trash dump.
And the only real change, is which leader ….poops …..sitting on the golden toilet in the presidential palace.
Is it Baby Doc Duvalier, or is it Fidel Castro.. ?
And for the common people, they simply exchange a capitalist exploiter, for a socialist exploiter, and nothing changes but who puts the gun to their heads.
