Venezuela in Trouble

When I wrote about food shortages in Venezuela the other day, Ergo Sum commented that it reminded him of Rand's novel about the Soviet Union.

Philosopher Stone also wrote about Venezuela, and in his comments appeared a young woman from Venezuela who has started a blog to broadcast her unhappiness with her country's direction. She obviously loves her country, but is thinking of leaving:

"And then you turn your head, and see the newest propaganda of the regime on the streets: a black figure of the president with a high red background and then you realize that at least for a while you are looking foward to take that plane."

When the rats takes over the ship,
It's best to give them the slip.
