This sounds great! I like how the socialist president blames right wingers, and how only the Capitol gets continuous electricity.

Feel The Berners get very angry when Venezuela is brought up.

Naw, not really

And is Somalia a Beta for Libertarianism?
I think we can find failed states with any imaginable political structure. No system alone guarantees positive governance.

Naw, not really
Yeah, they do.

Freedom has governed these here United States of America flawlessly since 1776

Nothing says libertarianism more than sectarian militarized murder, ethnic cleansing and armed robbery. Great point. Sounds more like socialism tho

Sounds like the good ol' robber baron days before those pesky job killing rules and regulations

Yep, when I think libertarian I think corporate oligarchy.

How can a country rich in oil be so poor. Shows what we would be like if there was not sensible minded conservatives to counter balance the skewered policies of the left. I always laugh how socialists keep their personal nests comfy, and make the poor downtrodden cultural disadvantaged peons suffer. The big city of Carcass where the gifted intellectuals live doesn't have short work weeks and power outages.

Beer shortage! Just stick together socialists, you'll pull through!

Global Climate Warming Changes!!! :shakesfist:

You mean power shortages lead to reduced production? Wow, who could have thought those two things would be related? Not fsd apparently
-
Socialism, where a continuous power supply is just asking too much.
Also, not why beer is in short supply, that's just another problemo. lol at lib7's stupid fat face
Empresas Polar SA, the country’s largest privately-held company and biggest brewer, said Wednesday that it will be forced to stop producing beer because it can’t get the foreign currency it needs to purchase malted barley.
-
This is fascinating.
Maduro’s government often accuses Polar of exaggerating its dollar needs and hoarding products as part of an “economic war” by the business community, politicians and the United States aimed at undermining socialism in Venezuela.

Detroit is the beta test for u.s. satanist style socialism. I'd say it isn't going very well.
Here's some people refusing to work today because they might not get paid in july (wut?). I guess the prospect of another bailout isn't sure enough. Of course, it's someone else's fault (republicans). But hey, it's all for the kids.

What in the actual eff? Also, most of the protest signs are your usual dem rhetoric and unrelated to education, fwiw.

bankruptcy is now a bailout....interesting.... :Wha:

Directly from the linked article :Wha:
unless the state Legislature approves sending more money to the district,
Teachers said they had been told that the $48.7 million allocated by the Legislature last month to fund the district through June 30
At least read

Would fsd stick around his job if he wasn't getting paid?

another bailout

They are getting paid.

another bailout

Your employer says they might not pay you next month, what do you do?

Find another job.

Well, I certainly wouldn't call in sick, using paid leave, then stand outside the front door and scream about immigration.

The way they propose to solve problems is so Bern
And how has President Nicolas Maduro responded to the energy crisis? He cut the work week for public servants to two days. Along with the furlough, Maduro -- who also is presiding over the world's worst recession -- ordered a 30 percent hike in the national minimum wage. Just how much the crowd-pleasing bonus will matter in a country with high triple-digit inflation, where consumers queueing for hours can't find eight out of 10 staple goods at grocery stores, is debatable. Not to mention that Venezuela is literally running out of bank notes.

What did you do today? Drove to another country to buy groceries. Couldn't buy very much because of 1600% inflation tho. #Socialism

Libs you are right on. A fount of exquisite knowledge. Consider this AP quote:
"Venezuela’s president, sounded optimistic about his country’s economic prospects when he spoke at the launch of an agricultural plan last month. “This year will be the new post-oil economy,” he said. “From 2017 onwards we will have to talk about the new era. We are building the new economy with a solid base in the countryside.”
So we have a strong socialistic movement led be Commie Bernie and the warmalist movement. It appears the unholy marriage of these two demons has spawned a failed state called Valenzuela. No oil is bad, Mr.Gore are you listening?

In political storm, Venezuela state-run oil company PDVSA drifts further

CARACAS/HOUSTON (Reuters) - To survive months of street protests and an economy in tailspin, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is trying to turn state oil company PDVSA into a bastion of support, further degrading an already vulnerable enterprise.
Political appointees are gaining clout at the expense of veteran oil executives, while employees are under mounting pressure to attend government rallies and vote for the ruling Socialists. The increasing focus on politics over performance is contributing to a rapid deterioration of Venezuela's oil industry, home to the world's largest crude reserves, and to a brain drain at the once world-class company.
Interviews with two dozen current and former employees, foreign oil executives, and contractors point to a PDVSA coming apart at the seams.
"Everything is a disaster and yet we have to clap," said a PDVSA employee, who asked to remain anonymous because she feared retaliation.
After four months of deadly protests against the unpopular president, new company leadership is increasingly pressuring employees to attend Socialist Party rallies and at times asking for letters explaining absences.
Managers told workers they would be fired unless they voted in Maduro's controversial election on July 30 of a new legislative superbody meant to rewrite the Constitution, which was widely denounced as a move toward dictatorship.
Critics have long contended that PDVSA - short for Petroleos de Venezuela SA - was being turned into the corruption-riddled heart of late President Hugo Chavez's "21st century socialism", at the expense of the OPEC nation's once-flourishing oil industry.
Now Venezuela's oil production is on track to end 2017 at a 25-year low, but the leftist government still relies heavily on PDVSA to be its financial motor.

Scandanavia is libtard utopia, a few million like-minded white people [100% white] who are completely dependent on oil for their value system
If only Venezuela would wipe out 80% of its population (and make them all white), things would be okay.
-
scandinavia has 21 million people (26 million if you count finland)
venezuela has 31 million people
i agree venezuela's rich diversity is why socialism hasn't worked there (95% of country identifies as "mestizo" or "white")
-
Scandanavia isn't a country. :lol:
If Venezuelans are all white, I'm sure you'd love it there.
