Coming to a country near you, unless you can stop it.

Today’s youth don’t want Venezuela-style socialism. They just want free college, healthcare, food, housing, guaranteed jobs at $15/hr, censorship of speech they don’t like and total gun confiscation.

Soon that huge pile of cash will be US dollars equivalent to . . . who knows? One gram of gold, one ruble, one yuan?

“That’ll be forty-seven-thousand dollars for the Big Mac, sir. French fries with that?”

Before we make too much fun of our neighbors to the south, maybe we should include a picture of 23 current US dollars alongside of one dollar from 100 years ago. That would also be an accurate comparison.

Venezuela is simply blazing the trail that we are following.

Fuck Venezuela ! They ( the brilliant people ) voted for this shit and now they can rot in it. And when this happens here in America there will be no one to blame but the stupid ass people in this country. As you can see I am not in a forgiving mood today.

I forget who said it but when asked if “Fascism” would ever come to America he replied,” Yes, but we will call it “Anti-Fascism.”
When Mexico and other countries increase their money supply we say they have “devalued” their currency,
Has the U.S. ever “devalued” the dollar. Yes, but we called it “inflation” and blamed American companies for increasing the cost of goods and services. (Today it’s changed to “quantitative easing.) And the American sheeple are basically clueless.
The free-shit army keeps wanting more and more. We deserve what we get and will probably get it “good and hard.”

People who use the term “they” to mean somehow that EVERYONE…YES, EVERYONE in these nations, states, cities, etc. voted in favor of the oppression they currently suffer under….disgust me. Our elections are about 51/49 if not closer. It is that way in nearly every federal election, state election, city election, or any district that hasn’t been Gerrymandered to guarantee success by the status quo parasite du jour. Hard to imagine that ALL of the people of Venezuela voted for this crap. Hard to imagine that the white farmers in South Africa voted FOR the tyrant that is now endorsing their own murders. Hard to imagine that YOU voted for Obama, or Clinton, or maybe even Bush, or Trump. So when the rest of the world says FUCK AMERICANS, they are getting what they deserve, because they voted for this tyranny, what is YOUR response???

I can assure you with 100% certainty, that I most certainly have NEVER voted for a candidate that has won elected office (well, an ignorant 18 year-old did vote for Reagan, but I came to my senses after that)….so NONE of this has happened with MY tacit endorsement.

This just gave me an idea. I’m going to fill a backpack full of this Venezuelan cash and two one gallon baggies of talcum powder and give it to my brother’s son-in-law (who’s a cop) and ask him to hold for a few days. I’ll be sure to mention he’s not to look inside the backpack. This could my ticket to retirement.

President V. Putin is woke to how financial terrorism works and is dumping U.S. treasuries and buying gold. Venezuela didn’t get the memo, apparently.

How much inflation would they have if we weren’t waging war on them by way of Columbia and debilitating covert sanctions in addition to all the overtly hostile actions. Our color revolution failed so we are bleeding them dry through attrition.
Remember Stucky’s article a few years ago about rare minerals needed for computers?
That’s just the beginning not to mention one of the worlds largest oil reserves. Because of sanctions they can’t get parts to repair oil drilling and pumping equipment so now even that money is rapidly drying up.
Most of the rioters are paid by sages beloved CIA as is the guerilla fighters invading from Columbia which We made into our Bitch back in the early years of the war on drugs.
Prove otherwise instead of telling me I’m crazy. Telling me I’m crazy would have more truth behind it than any alleged proof against my argument.

Flea….Venezuela has no other market for the greater part of its oil. Heavy crude is special stuff and is not for the average refinery . There are only a few places it can be refined and the USA is the prime market for their oil. If my memory is correct Venezuela accounts for about % of our oil imports . Venezuela needs us and in the long run we need them .

I wonder how much it costs for one of those honey’s these days in Venezuela ?

China. Need was not my point though. We can’t allow countries to determine their own course.
