Yes, I know about the toilet paper. It's something I've discussed before, that socialist economies always seem to run out of toilet paper.... it's almost like a litmus test for socialism.
But on the plus side, the bolivar is now so worthless... that it now has a new utility as a toilet paper substitute. See... everything evens out.
Ugh. Popcorn gents.
Once upon a time in a oil rich country, a bunch of faggy commies decided to elect a faggy commie. The faggy commie leader decided that the poor paid too much for toilet paper, and that he would help them, the rich toilet paper factory owners were making too much. So, he said, "in Venezuela, there is now a cap on a price of toilet paper" and it could not be legally sold for more. If me and you had the toilet paper factory, were making 100k a year to split, and Zelhar next door is making 50k off newspaper, now we'd only make 10k off of toilet paper, but we could each pull 30k stepping on his toes in the news paper market. So we and all the other factories stop making toilet paper, and massive lines form at all stores for it.
The government now could have realized its mistake and left the free market to decide. Faggy commies are not in the habit of admitting their mistakes, so they send soldiers in, pointed guns at our heads, and said make toilet paper. Now Chaim has his zipper factory down the street and says I'm next, so decides to close up shop and use the money to sneak into Israel, and Lewinsky Stinks takes the 1bil planned investment in Venezuelan sheep out of the portfolio, better invest somewhere safer and freer like Cuba or Iran. From there, government goes into all the factories and says "hands up and on the machines", takes over the supermarkets because screw you and there's not enough food so they need soldiers to shoot the starving people who try to butt in line.
From there endless stories about their tailspin into a socialist death pit, but it started with one faggy commie's retarded little machination to save the poor toilet paper money. Really that's just disinformation, these people are not stupid, this was a success and not an accident, Venezuelan politicians can rape your 5 year old daughter for a week if they give you a hot dog and you'll say thank you.
