Venezuela; a nation that has imposed every well meaning leftist program one can imagine on the planet, and one who thought that oil revenues could pay for all the largess with ZERO economic consequences is now floundering in high inflation, high crime and high unemployment?

How can this be??? After all, the Marxist Government cared so much more than anyone else right?

This is what happens when an agenda, that Obama supports, is implemented along single party line politics.

Venezuela's misery index gives opposition candidates a boost in Sunday's elections

Carlos Lopez was about to undergo liver transplant surgery earlier this year when his doctors abruptly called off the procedure: Venezuela lacked the necessary postoperative drugs to keep his body from rejecting the new organ, they told him.

"I underwent eight months of pre-surgical exams for nothing," said Lopez, a 68-year-old chemist. He also had secured a government grant to pay for the operation and an agreement from his daughter to donate a portion of her liver. "What Venezuela is going through has a human cost, not just an economic one."

Scarcities of life-sustaining medications, ongoing hyperinflation and long lines for such basic items as eggs and shampoo have boosted Venezuelans' misery index to the point that opposition candidates are likely to win a majority of National Assembly seats in Sunday's elections for the first time in 15 years.

I guess having nothing to wipe your ass for a couple of years, the idiots finally decided enough of the socialist shit...
 
This is why I am surprised socialist candidates gain any traction.

Do you really want to be like a South American country? High socialism, terrible economies. Which leads to mass corruption. Or like Greece completely bankrupt.

Count me out.
