Socialism: Want to lose weight fast? Don't worry
about the latest fad diet. Just move to Venezuela. There, the new
Socialist Diet has caused the population to lose millions of pounds in
12 months. Unwillingly, of course.
A new study of Venezuela's stunning decline under Hugo Chavez's socialist model, still followed faithfully by his lap dog successor, Nicolas Maduro, reports that the average Venezuelan lost 19 pounds in the last year. Today, the 2016 Living Conditions Survey finds, 32.5% of Venezuelans eat only once or twice a day, up from 11.3% just one year ago. And 93.3% of all people don't earn enough to buy sufficient food.
American Thinker blogger Ronald C. Tinnell called it "The Venezuelan Miracle Weight Loss Program."
We call it a shocking indictment of socialism, and should be a siren call to people around the world: Bring socialism to your country, and you bring misery. It's the one thing that socialism produces an abundance of.
It's a sad fact that Venezuela was once one of the wealthiest countries in South America, and even now has the second-largest oil reserves in the world. It should be a rich nation, filled with prosperous people worried about gaining too much weight, not losing it to hunger. Yet today 32.5% of Venezuelans eat only once or twice a day, up from 11.3% just one year ago.
