For those of you who live under a rock, or only read the New York Slimes, Venezuela is undergoing a complete and total economic collapse. This was brought on by the socialist policies of it\u2019s former, (and now dead), dictator, Hugo Chavez and it\u2019s current incompetent dictator, Nicolas Maduro. Prior to these two morons, Venezuela was actually doing fairly well for a South American country.<\/p>\n
It had problems, but they were sitting on some pretty extensive oil fields. Once Chavez and then Maduro came into the picture, they looted the money coming in from the oil revenues, didn\u2019t bother with any maintenance and did the usual 3rd<\/sup> world dictator stuff of taking care of themselves and their cronies, all of this under the cover of \u201cPower to the people!\u201d<\/p>\n Now the money has run out and people are literally starving to death. Girls as young as 11-12 or selling themselves to feed themselves and their families. In other words, Venezuela has gone from a potential great economy to a typical 3rd<\/sup> world hell hole.<\/p>\n This brings us to Scripps College, located in Claremont, Kalifornistan. Scripps was founded by an early model Moonbat named Ellen Browning Scripps<\/a>. According to Wikipedia<\/a>:<\/p>\n At the age of 89, Scripps founded the college as one of the institutions in the West dedicated to educating women for both professional careers and personal growth. Scripps\u2019 \u201cexperiment in education\u201d called for a setting with an artistic connection between buildings and garden landscape on an intimate scale.<\/b><\/p>\n The costs to attend this \u201cInstitution of higher learning\u201d is way up there, coming in around $60,000 per year. This tuition is used to bring in speakers and educators to prepare these young skulls full of mush to become useful and productive members of American society. It was with this in mind that Scripps brought in two economic failures from Venezuela. It doesn\u2019t seem that they were brought in to show the students just how bad Socialism is either. Here are the details of what these two morons were brought in to teach from the Washington Times<\/b><\/a>:<\/p>\n Scripps College is hosting two officials from the Venezuelan government this week to promote \u201ceconomics that serve people not profits.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n Consuls General Antonio Cordero<\/a> and Jesus Chucho Garcia will deliver two lectures and participate in a joint panel discussion through Wednesday at the women\u2019s college in Claremont, California.<\/p>\n And what will these lectures consist of? Consider the email sent to the students regarding these lectures:<\/p>\n An April 6 email sent to Scripps students advertising the lecture series, which was first reported<\/a> by the Claremont Independent, praises the Venezuelan government\u2019s housing, health care and education policies. <\/b><\/p>\n \u201cDespite the increase in economic sanctions from powers such as the United States, Canada and the European Union, the Bolivarian Revolution has built 2 million homes across the country for working class families in the last five years,\u201d the email reads. \u201cVictims of natural disasters are prioritized among the new homeowners. Health care and education are universal and free.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n So everyone has a nice hovel to starve to death in, how nice. Of course, they blame all their economic problems on the United States. After all, it\u2019s America\u2019s fault that they\u2019ve run out of other people\u2019s money to spend.<\/p>\n Once the wealthiest nation in South America, Venezuela<\/a> has seen its economy contract nearly 50 percent since 2013 under the socialist policies of President Nicolas Maduro. <\/b><\/p>\n Hyperinflation has led to shortages of basic goods like toilet paper, diapers and aspirin, and staples of the Venezuelan diet including milk, eggs, rice, coffee and sugar have been similarly hard to come by. At one point, the bolivar weakened so dramatically that the government could not afford to print new money. <\/b><\/p>\n In a survey published last year, about one-third of Venezuelans said they had skipped meals in the last 12 months, and nearly three-fourths reported losing weight, dropping 19 pounds on average. <\/b><\/p>\n Well, I\u2019m sure they were all overweight to begin with.<\/p>\n More than 600,000 Venezuelans have fled the country in search of economic opportunity elsewhere.<\/b><\/p>\n With a fair number looking at the United States. Well guess what? We don\u2019t want you. You screwed up your country, we\u2019re not about to let you wreck ours either. Of course, if your a barking moonbat attending a college in Kalifornistan, you just think that the reason Socialism failed in Venezuela was that the right people, such as yourselves, weren\u2019t the ones implementing it.<\/p>\n The economic crisis in Venezuela<\/a> had also precipitated a political one.<\/b><\/p>\n President Maduro has taken steps to consolidate power and weaken the opposition-dominated national assembly. The strongman is poised to win another six-year term after abruptly moving elections to this year, catching the opposition party off guard. <\/b><\/p>\n An election he will win with 98.99% of the vote going to him of course.<\/p>\n This week\u2019s events at Scripps College are titled, \u201cVenezuela<\/a>\u2019s Challenge: Against War and a Unipolar World,\u201d \u201cVenezuelans\u2019 Exercise of Popular Democracy from the Streets to the Polls\u201d and \u201cMaroon Legacies and Afro-Venezuelan Organizing in Venezuela<\/a>\u2019s Bolivarian Revolution.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n The first lecture, delivered by Mr. Cordero<\/a> on Monday, was advertised to students who are \u201cinterested in economics that serve people not profits.\u201d The second lecture, delivered jointly on Tuesday, will address the themes of \u201ceconomic sovereignty, African solidarities, and a different way of doing democracy.\u201d The third lecture will be delivered Wednesday by Mr. Garcia, who is billed as \u201can organizer who hails from the grassroots of Venezuela<\/a>\u2019s Black working-class struggles.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n So typical of Socialists everywhere. Blame the evil capitalists for making money and putting people to work. Nope, it has to be the government that does this because only central totalitarian control is acceptable.<\/p>\n The April 6 email frames the Scripps lecture series by pointing to recent international gatherings convened to show \u201cunwavering solidarity\u201d with the Venezuelan government. <\/b><\/p>\n Ah yes, \u201cUnwavering solidarity\u201d with the government by people who think they should rule. I\u2019m probably on safe ground here when I say these are the same sorts of people that supported the Soviet Union, especially when it was run by Josef Stalin, Italy when it was Fascist and run by Benito Mussolini, the People\u2019s Republic of China under Mao, and of course, our perennial favorite tyrant, Germany under Adolph Hitler.<\/p>\n \u201cThese gatherings and grassroots initiatives, absent from mainstream corporate media coverage of Venezuela<\/a>, encompass the people\u2019s vision for a new society rooted in political participation, communal economies and democracy,\u201d the email reads. <\/b><\/p>\n In other words, Communism.<\/p>\n This is the second consecutive semester that Scripps has hosted Mr. Cordero<\/a> for a three-day summit on Venezuela<\/a>. He participated in a panel discussion last October titled, \u201cIn Search of Truth in Today\u2019s Venezuela<\/a>.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n They couldn\u2019t find the truth if it came up and kicked them in their microscopic testicles.<\/p>\n A poster advertising the October speaker series, as reported<\/a> by the Claremont Independent, touted Venezuela<\/a>\u2019s electoral system as \u201cthe most transparent in the world.\u201d <\/b><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
