Yes, it's important to note that the "Right" in Venezuela, aided by the US, is the most likely culprit in these assassination attempts. This is the same "Right" that has a monopoly on certain foodstocks, such as butter and flour and has been stock-piling them, while the US media reports on food shortages as a socialist problem.
- nonbel 8y ago>"This is the same "Right" that has a monopoly on certain foodstocks, such as butter and flour and has been stock-piling them" I don't know the details but is "the right" being conflated with some form of "prepper" here? Eg people who saw these shortages coming started stockpiling resources and people who trusted the government would figure things out, or didnt have the means to stockpile, didnt do so?
- bcoates 8y agoIn a country with nationalized agriculture. With a socialist government for the last 19 years. Did Chavez and Maduro forget to redistribute all the wheat and dairy when doing their land reform? Where exactly are these kulaks getting their butter and flour to hoard? Why have the PSUV and Maduro's planned economy not decreed their monopoly over?
- kevin_thibedeau 8y agoHow does one even stockpile butter? You can't hold onto it indefinitely waiting for more favorable market conditions. The butter is either available or not. If not, the socialist government has screwed up.
