Venezuelan prisoners are eating rats and pigeons as a means of survival as food supplies continue to dissipate in the failed socialist state, according to a report published this weekend. El Nuevo Herald reports that a group of prisoners at the Vista Hermosa (Beautiful View) prison in Bolivar state have turned to eating such creatures simply to sustain themselves. One inmate, 41-year-old Alejandro Manuel Mago Coraspe, was transferred to a nearby hospital last week after falling ill from eating dead rats he found in a prison garbage disposal.

Socialism failed in Venezuela because they didn't do it right. We'll do it the right way here in the US and it'll work.

Rats and mice are a pain, but they are kind of cute

When you start a revolution to kill the 1%, but end up killing 50%

Socialist Liberals don't give a shite about that.

Socialism means everything is free.

My dad was caught by the vietcong smuggling people to islands back in the 70s and told me stories about how his only source of protein were rats in prison. Literally had to catch them and stuff.

He would go through that to get people away from that shithole, yeah sorry to be the a-hole that think asian americans have it "easy" are fricking stupid.

I'd have to seriously think suicide before it got to that.

My BIL was stuck in a Vietnamese reeducation work camp for 4 years. He ate grubs and worms and anything they could find to complement the rice they were given. He's literally obsessed with food now. I am not joking when I say 90% of his actions involve eating, planning to eat, discussing food, preparing food, etc.

It's astounding how many useful idiots buy into this complete fraud's bullshite. Every time I see a vehicle with one of his stickers I want to throw up. I really would like to stop them and ask them why they have a vehicle when everyone else does not. It's just pitiful, but we have many on here who buy into this totally debunked and failed system.

All BS aside, socialism works in countries where the leaders are not corrupt (unlike in Venezuela) AND 95%of the populace are hard working, upstanding citizens rather than leeches (unlike the US). Places like Denmark and Norway are super prosperous.

It'll never work here even if we have the right government because we have too large of a demographic made up of lazy pieces of garbage who have no desire to contribute to society.
