re: How realistic is the US reaching venezuela status if we go full commie

Very real...cause bitches like you will sit around and allow it

You will see because it’s coming. It’s the goal of our government to cause the collapse. They want most of us dead and that’s the best way to achieve it.

We were full blown Communist during Covid as such relates to Government. Once a Government becomes the source for money (printed version) and therein power to “promote the common welfare “…they must and will. And anyone opposing Government becomes an enemy of said COMMON welfare”. A Group will always be more power than an individual. The days of some individuals enjoying the kind of freedoms that the US did for years are coming to an end. Those who oppose the “fundamental change” will have to put their lives and property on the line like the Founders did, and I don’t think we have that metal. Now when the Venezuela type food shortages hit and the roving gangs hit the streets that will be an altogether different scenario for fighting back. And like previous posts affirm, given all the guns that will be painful. Lord have mercy on them who love.

You will see if they steal the election for camel toe

You do realize that our federal government has already trampled all over the 2nd Amendment and taken most of the teeth out if it, right? They did it by tiny increments starting back in the 1930s when they started requiring licenses for automatic weapons and certain components of firearms. Then there was the firearms registration act of 1968, in 1994 magazine capacities in excess of 10 rounds were prohibited for a period of time (which, thankfully, later expired), and the restrictions on ownership of automatic weapons has become yet again more difficult than before. Furthermore, they government is seeking ways to confiscate semiautomatic rifles that look scary by demonizing them and calling them weapons of war.

The 2nd Amendment has about three teeth left in its head and they're all in danger of being pulled before we know anything about it. So, do you really think that there is much our citizens could do against highly trained, well equipped, and highly coordinated government troops using state of the art weapons, communications, targeting devices, etc., while we have at our disposal several various AR-platforms that are semi-automatic, a few of us old farts who have their old SKS rifles that they either brought home from 'Nam or purchased for less than $100.00 at a dept store 30 years ago, and limited access to ammunition that is rapidly becoming prohibitively expensive to purchase?

Once I stop laughing......OK, in terms of things that are produced for export, the US has a production output of a factor of at least a factor of magnitude of about 1,000.....and that's a lowball estimate. Venezuela got into this trouble because the reality is that it only really had one major industry and that was oil. Successive governments there from the late 80s to 1999 when Chavez was elected mismanaged the budgets and did not increase the manufacturing base which put the country on the path of being a basket case..

People act like Venezuela was some sort of mini US because it had so much oil. It was not. It was a stratified society with a few really rich people in Caracas and Maricaibo. The rest were pretty poor. Not saying Chavez and Maduro were not clowns, but Chavez was duely elected and he made no secret of what his philosophies were.

There is no way that her policies will get passed and she knows it. She can almost say what she wants and most of the Liberal media supports it.

Yup

D = Camel Commies
R = Trumpty Commies

Lots of smoke and media mirrors to make the honest, hardworking, taxpaying, US citizens fall for 1 side over the other while BOTH create more sheeple to to fleece and consume
