With all that free energy from the sun and the wind how could the power possibly be out? (Did they get what they payed for?)
We need Cortez to show them how to build trains that do not run on electricity or oil but are powered by the riders, “pedal power” because “everybody has to do their part” to generate electricity so the train will go down the tracks, the free energy of the 17th century future… (horses generate too much methane for her, only the Amish will have a religious exemption)

Speaking of AOC, the plot to take over the Democrat Party. The truth we all suspected…

If Obama could fake it…

That report was still eight years after the electrical system was nationalized, and a decade and a half after the country went socialist. In both cases, the socialists managed to neglect the current and future needs of the people. An example of only getting what the government wants, when you let the government run things.

You’re right, water issues aren’t new, it’s a decades-old problem. [1] Often they didn’t plan ahead and neglected to invest to keep pace with growing demand, so Caracas (like the rest of the country) experienced shortages and rationing repeatedly. [2]

This report from 2015 reads similar to today’s:

“As many as 3 million Caracas residents face intermittent water cuts. The city sits in a valley almost 3,000 feet above sea level, meaning water must be pumped up from sources lower down. But poor maintenance of the pumps and pipes and a lack of government cash for replacement parts has left the city’s taps running dry. (…) The government blames the water crisis on right-wing terrorists intent on taking down President Nicolas Maduro. The president and his allies say the wider economic situation is caused by an “economic war” waged by domestic opponents with the support of the U.S.” [3]

In the Alternate Reality–normal Venezuelan’s might rise up and systematically kill every single one of their communist overlords, with total & absolute malice aforethought,— “you’ve nothing to lose, but your chains.”

This is a proof of concept experiment that will certainly verify and solidify the Green New Deal as a mandatory model by which the future of man will be set.

We will keep watching. I assume it will be well underway and paying dividends by the time that the 2020 American presidential race is held and will help the Democrats ticket.

I think the Inca went through a similar transformation and proof of concept. When will the greedy and corrupt capitalists learn?

Everything is backwards, and that is not by accident.

In the Sixties we threatened the Communists that we would “bomb them back to the Stone Age”. We should have waited a few years and let them do it themselves.

This is the sort of thing that has been seen time and time again in these sort of regimes – the technically qualified fired (if they were lucky) for having the wrong politics and replaced by incompetents who passed the loyalty test. The French revolutionaries guillotined the officers of the Ancien Regime’s Navy and replaced captains with decades of experience with merchant skippers and petty officers of the right political stripe. The result ? The Royal Navy rang up an incredible series of victories that culminated in Trafalgar – the most lopsided naval victory until Tsushima a century later (interestingly, it was the Napoleonic Ideal – the Battle of Annihilation – transferred to the sea) Stalin beheaded the Red Army of Workers and Peasants by shooting the professional officers, replaced them with political aparatchiks and unqualified junior officers and almost handed Hitler his victory in the East. He eventually prevailed but at a cost to the USSR of over 20 million lives (no one knows even approximately, Communists record keeping was sketchy at best – for the best numbers I’ve ever seen, see “The Hemoclysm” http://users.rcn.com/mwhite28/war-1900.htm)
