Full Retard Communism Achieved! Venezuelan farmers ordered to hand over produce to state.

Meanwhile, a word about toilet paper.
The capitalist propaganda machine outside of the Bolivarist Paradise has been telling people that toilet paper is now largely unavailable for purchase in the country. But, does man really require toilet paper to be happy? A few centuries ago there was no toilet paper at all – indeed, mankind survived for most its history without toilet paper. The desire for toilet paper is simply a form of manufactured desire created by capitalist marketing and advertising – the production of a want in people for a product they don’t actually have a real use for. The creation of toilet paper despoils forests and the landscape, is unsustainable, and it is only to the good that Venezuela now leads the world in eliminating this scourge from our midst. No one could have seen this coming « Samizdata

The only answer to failed socialism... is more socialism.

What happened in Russia will happen in Venezuela; the farmers will grow enough to feed themselves with some leftovers to ship to market.

Food shortages produce revolutions.

"A few centuries ago there was no toilet paper at all"

Nor were there toilets. Some countries still have no toilets. Those are the countries that I refer to as 3rd World Toilets.
Wouldn't want to live in one.
