Venezuelans Cope with Food Shortage
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqqJDFTVMCE

Over the last several years we have documented with clockwork regularity Venezuela's collapse into failed state status, which was cemented several weeks ago when news hit that "Venezuela had officially run out of money to print new money (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-04-27/end-venezuela-runs-out-money-print-new-money)." At that point the best one could do was merely to step back and watch as local society and civilization turned on itself, unleashing what would ultimately turn into Venezuela's own, sad apocalypse.
Last night we showed what Caracas, looks like this week:

As we wrote (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-05-12/raw-venezuela-looter-burned-alive-while-streets-filled-people-killing-animals-food) then these are simply hungry Venezuelans protesting that their children are dying from lack of food and medicine and that they do not have enough water or electricity. As AgainstCronyCapitalism added, this is a country with more oil than Saudi Arabia, and the government has stolen all the money and now they bottleneck peaceful protesters and threaten them with bombs (or haul them to prison and torture them).
As pure desperation has set in, crime has becomes inevitable. A man accused of mugging people in the streets of Caracas was surrounded by a mob of onlookers, beaten and set on fire, who published a pixeled-out but still graphic video of the man burning as mob justice is now the supreme arbiter of who lives and who dies:
"Roberto Fuentes Bernal, 42, was reportedly caught trying to mug passersby in the Venezuelan capital, and before police arrived at the scene, the crowd took the law into their own hands." The video can be seen here (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-05-12/raw-venezuela-looter-burned-alive-while-streets-filled-people-killing-animals-food).
Now, in the latest shocking development, Venezuela saw a new wave of looting this week that resulted in at least two deaths, countless wounded, and millions of dollars in losses and damages.
According to Panampost (https://panampost.com/sabrina-martin/2016/05/11/venezuela-looting-wounded-5000-supermarket/), on Wednesday morning, a crowd sacked the Maracay Wholesale Market in the central region of Venezuela. According to the testimonies of merchants, the endless food lines that Venezuelans have been enduring to do groceries could not be organized that day.

As time went by, desperate Venezuelans grew anxious over not being able to buy food. Then they started jumping over the gates and stormed the supermarket.
"They took milk, pasta, flour, oil, and milk powder. There were 5,000 people" one witness told Venezuela outlet El Estímulo.
People from across the entire state came to the supermarket because there were rumors that some products not found anywhere else would be sold there.
As a result of the massive crowd, the authorities were unable to preserve the peace. "There were 250 people for each National Guard officer… lots of people and few soldiers. At least one officer was beat up because he tried to stop the crowd,” another source told El Estímulo.
Other food dispensaries run by the government were also looted by the people.

Far from the promised socialist paradise, as the massive group of people moved, an entrance gate collapsed under the weight of the crowd, leaving several wounded.

The Cuban people had FIFTY years to learn how to live as one.... one for all and all for one.... even the Cuban army are working and dedicating themselfe in growing food for everyone.......either you live as one or you will die one by one.....

In the US where everyone has a gun it will be bullets before food, and many will die.

I shudder at the fact that Americans have no clue as to what a hard time is.

The poor and homeless are fat and easy access to food

Reality is going to tear them a new one

And yet for some reason Jew media keeps pushing Socialism on us.

And yet for some reason Jew media keeps pushing Socialism on us.

Because they want the same result. cf Holodomor .

There are some Jews living in VZ: I would bet money they are all fine in terms of food.

Yes Chavez daughter has over 4 billion stuffed in various accounts around the world.

That truly is a miracle

If you’re a prepper, pay close attention to what happens next. What’s playing out in Venezuela right now is the kind of worst case scenario that many of us have been preparing for in the US. It should be very informative. It just goes to show that if you live under a corrupt authoritarian government that can’t manage its resources, all it takes is a heavy ripple in the global economy to send the whole system careening over a cliff.

I wouldn’t say the US government is in nearly as bad of shape as Venezuela’s. We have corruption, waste, and a degree of tyranny, though perhaps not on the same scale. But then again, Venezuela didn’t seem to be in very bad shape a few short years ago. Under the right circumstances, any government can collapse, and our system has many of the same vulnerabilities as theirs. All that means is that it would take a larger event to cripple our nation.
If you’re curious about what that may look like, keep your eyes on Venezuela for the next few months. They’re about to become the 21st century poster child for how easy it is for socialist pseudo democratic governments to collapse, and drag their citizens along with them. And unfortunately the differences between our system and theirs aren’t that vast.

Some, yes. I expect people will turn to cannibalism before many die, and then many will die. This will probably be the next stage for Venezuela as their learned helplessness will prevent them from violently overthrowing their slave masters. My question is what will Americans do, sure we have weaps, but do we have the collective will power to oust the shit bags from power.

Venezuela Accuses US of Plotting Coup as Washington Warns of ‘imminent collapse’

Source: The Independent





The relationship between the US and Venezuela has for many years been nothing less than toxic.





In 2002, then President Hugo Chavez was briefly ousted in a coup by opponents supported by the US. Washington continued to funnel hundreds of thousands of dollars to his critics, while Mr Chavez took to the podium of the UN to accuse George W Bush of being the devil.

Now, President President Nicolas Maduro has extended a state of emergency in the country for another 60 days and accused Washington of plotting against him, as US intelligence has claimed the country is heading for meltdown.

Mr Maduro secured the extension of emergency powers, as unnamed US intelligence officials told reporters in Washington they doubted that the left-wing president would allow a recall referendum this year, despite opposition-led protests demanding a vote to decide whether he stays in office.

It's kinda ironic that you would think in a starvation scenario fat folks would fare best. But the truth is they would be among the very first to die cause they are the most dependant on the status quo.

The very thought of not knowing their next meal isn't't secure ...The shock and ensueing panic will kill them

I'm afraid it will mean "refugees" for America.

The new refugee has to be a raving mad muslim, without passion in check, ready to kill, rape, steal. Refugees with a Christian heritage will not be admitted.

(Babies are placed in baskets and cardboard boxes because there is nowhere else to put them.)
You’ve seen the stories about how desperate people are down to hunting dogs in the streets for food there (http://www.thedailysheeple.com/raw-venezuela-looter-burned-alive-while-streets-filled-with-people-killing-animals-for-food_052016).
The crippling economic crisis in Venezuela is reaching a critical tipping point. Due to the oil collapse, socialism has failed the country and thousands of people are dying as the nation’s hospitals have turned into real-life nightmares scarier than most fiction horror films.
Because there’s no money for supplies like clean linens, soap, toilet paper, medical supplies like disposable gloves or even basics like a clean sheet of paper, let alone medicines such as intravenous solutions and antibiotics, and because the country is suffering rolling blackouts and money-saving government-imposed “holidays” that only leave people with two days of reliable electricity a week, the ill and wounded including newborn babies are dying left and right in Venezuela’s crippled hospitals.

Every single possession,
every memory,
everything you've had
your whole life
gone in a second.
Can you imagine
what that must feel like?

Miss Geist?
Cher?
I want to help.
That would be wonderful.

I felt better already.

Cher, what are you doing?
I'm captain of the Pismo Beach
disaster relief.
I don't think
they need your skis.

Daddy, some people lost
all their belongings.
Don't you think that includes
athletic equipment?
