Nation-wide power outage due to socialism

IMO, some kind of economic collapse is the most probably TSHTF moment.
Note, the collapse in Venezuela is not global - it affects most people but not all, the elites have their own generators and energy supplies.

“imperialist electromagnetic attack.”

I'm surprised the rest of the world is just watching this implode.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all.

In fact, I’d be disappointed if we weren’t helping them along with a couple gentle kicks.

This is what socialism looks like. In Venezuela,
17 patients suffering from end-stage kidney failure have already died without their dialysis;
More than 80 infants receiving inadequate natal care have died because hospital backup generators have run out of fuel;
At least 40 civilians have been arrested for looting and were hauled away in police vans;
Of the 1,800 gas stations in the country, only 100 are operating, resulting in gas lines that extend around the block;
Internet service is only available to about four percent of the population, as a result of most of the country’s internet service going offline;
Food is rotting in refrigerators, forcing some grocery store managers to give it away for free before it spoils completely;
Homes no longer have water because the pumping stations have been forced to shut down due to lack of fuel; and
Citizens are being forced to walk to work as taxis are no longer operational and the subway system is down.

That would be funny if it wasn't so true.

It just keeps getting worse there and worse.

They've come a long way since they kicked American oil companies out and the government took over.  The once Latin Paradise the bright spot in South America is now the new Rwanda.

The scariest part of all is the stupidity of our people thinking our socialist will do no different.

If you ever wondered what is the most important scenario to prepare for, this is it.  Unlike a hurricane or some nuclear holocaust, unless American's wake up one day and get smart, this is coming here sure as the sun shines.

This.  One of the very few good things about about being old - I won't have to see the US become a third world shit hole like the democrats want.

Sorta off topic but surprisingly Rwanda is now a bright spot in that part of the world.

Too bad for Venezuela though. Socialism sucks.

My fear is that while I won’t see it, my children will suffer because of it.
