Venezuela was the wealthiest nation in Latin America. Then leftists took control. Now it is the poorest. People eat their pets, zoo animals, and anything quasi-edible that they can find in dumpsters. Leftists also control Los Angeles. It is not turning out any better.

Combine the welfare state, demographic displacement, contempt for law & order, and the rest of the grab bag of pernicious moonbattery that comprises the liberal agenda and behold the results:

Everyone knows how leftist policies always turn out. We know that Democrats are doing to the whole country what they have done to Los Angeles. We just don’t know how to stop them, when they control the media and the media controls the direction of the herd.

Hat tip: Not the Bee.
