The slow moving disaster of socialism continues in Venezuela.  More oil than the Saudis, but can't keep the lights, or refers on, nor pay their bills.  Bernie Sanders, here's your dream society.  Bernie claims to be a Democrat Socialist.  What socialists, except the national ones, ever made the claim not to be democratic?   Forget frozen meat, better stock up on canned goods in Venezuela.

"Fridges zapped off in kitchens across Venezuela as the government turned off the electricity supply to help ease a power shortage that is worsening the country's economic crisis.

It is the latest drastic measure by the government in a crisis that already has Venezuelans queuing for hours to buy scarce supplies in shops.

The government imposed a four-hour blackout in eight states starting Monday and said the measure will last 40 days. The states of Caracas and Vargas had also been on the list for blackouts but were spared at the last minute.

The timing of the switch-off caught Pedro Tarazona by surprise at his shop in the town of Santa Teresa del Tuy southeast of Caracas.

The fridge was full of meat when it suddenly stopped working. So did the electric fan.

The machine for processing bank card payments wouldn't work either without power, so at least two customers left without buying anything."

Today's TD carried the story that public services, including schools, will only work two days a week (Monday and Tuesday) in order to save electricity. Workers will receive a full week's pay.  If, it weren't for the schools, limiting government workers to a two day week in socialist countries might be  a good idea. They cause less harm, that way.
