"We want food!" Venezuela crisis deepens.


Posted: May 19, 2016

I'm sure this is trending on Facebook right? (sarc) "But now the people no longer want revolution -- what they want is food," she said. Socialism at work. ;

"Officials ordered that half of the food deliveries heading to shops - and markets be instead diverted for

local distribution."

So, will this food be distributed to just all the party faithful and military? These people need to check out Cuba.

Venezuela has oil but it's difficult to refine. I read it is very thick, almost tar-like and is loaded with sulfur which has to be removed. The US refineries are the only ones capable of refining it economically. I read that the Chinese were going to upgrade their refineries to handle it, but that takes lots of time and a lot of money.

Where is Sean Penn now?

US. The only economy in Latin America that isn’t in the crapper is that of Chile. Venezuela paying Danny Glover 20 million dollars a decade ago to produce a propaganda movie touting their great socialist paradise and he stiffed them.

Nobel Prize winning economist, F.A. Hayak, wrote nearly 70 years ago that socialism was nothing but a road to serfdom. However on many college campuses, academics believe that even communism works if the right people are in charge.

Hey Bern, Make America Venezuela again!!!

There's definitely some kind of disturbance in the "force" and - it's spiritual. Truth is always the first

Socialism and communism always fail.

Maybe if someone started slapping Libs around, it would rouse them from the Marxist- induced comatose state and place them in the real world. Hmmmm- not sure there is a sledge hammer big enough to wake up a liberal. Just like a Lib to call for violence against anyone they disagree with.

Your comments are not only a flat out lie - they are offensive to all the inbred Liberals. Wise up.

like Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon who is going to direct porn films now, Danny Glover, et al. "Look at me, I care."

While the best way to help people is not throwing money at them, but to teach them how to take care of themselves.

hard-earned money to go to pay for these a%#@holes to parade around the world expecting that we all will listen to them just because they’ve learned how to prance around a stage and play pretend.

Take a look at Puerto Rico. The island territory - owes %78 billion that it cannot repay.

Sanders told them "If elected president of the United States, you will have an ally in the Oval Office.” What does that mean? Taxpayers will bail them out so they can go back to their socialist ways? They nationalized their sugar cane and coffee industries.

I tried to use this as an example of how big government destroys incentives to my son and daughter-in-law who are strong socialist supporters thanks to the American college system. They of course didn't want to hear it and instead place all blame on business.

It’s actually pretty sweet to know we are past the point of no return. I'm tired. Let the chips fall.

That's exactly what the libs want for us. They've been destroying this country for several decades. It's all about control. If you boys and girls want to keep your dough and get government out of everything they're not supposed to be in, stop voting for and listening to the filthy, lying, greedy, controlling, corrupt dems. WAKE UP or else go back to sleep and have nothing and lose your freedom. This once great country is almost cooked. Sickening.

If you think what we have now is a "destroyed" - country, you aint seen nuthin yet.

Trump will leave this place a smoking ruin of what it once was, or ever could be.

All of this is sad to watch, of course, but at the same time it's grotesquely interesting, as well. Like standing there and looking at the aftermath of a head-on train wreck. It's awful, but you just can't look away.

they are right in there fanning the flames. You roll your eyes when they blame "imperialist America" but you might want to study up on the history of some of the South American and Central American countries and how we have "helped" them, especially the ones with freely elected socialist and even communist heads of state. Yep, that's us all right.

Blame America First as usual. Could it possibly be - socialist policy? Think about it.

In our globalized era, that means America will be considered an unpredictable partner and a second-class power. Worst of all, this will be a s ...
