Yeah, double down.
Starve out the Socialist that will solve a lot of the problems.

Blame everyone else for their economic woes.
Not easy to keep animals if you live in a block of flats.
They really are just clueless.

These corrupt, socialist morons have destroyed a prosperous economy with their nationalization, control and thievery. Venezuela will not recover until the Chavistas are driven out of government, and people are free to manage their lives, businesses and property as they see fit. No government can manage anything as well as the individuals involved (even if they were trying to promote the general welfare, rather than increase their power and enrich themselves).

Jan 09th, 2016 - 05:37 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Like all socialists, this rube has but a superficial grasp of economics. He thinks he's so smart he can grab on the fly all the information he needs, which means he ignores whatever doesn't agree with his ideology. Hence, as all other of his ilk, he can keep coming up with silly “ideas” that have no chance in the real world.
