It was a busy day for the Nicolas Maduro administration in Venezuela yesterday. Hours after Kimberly Clark shuttered operations there, President Maduro announced that his government has seized the toilet paper factory and will re-open it for the people.
Which is probably a good thing for his government since Citibank informed the Socialist leader that they are going to close the Central Bank and Bank of Venezuela account that is used to pay foreign obligations by the embattled nation.

They better get those toilet paper lines running soon, they’re going to need it to print more Bolivars. Its going, going, gone.
The cool thing is that there will be no impact on the environment. All they’re going to do is glue together paper Bolivars (Venezuelan currency) and wind them into rolls for use as bathroom tissue. It’s cheaper that way, and they don’t have to cut down any trees.

But it’s not because of Socialism.
They don’t need toilet paper. Their currency is less expensive and will work just fine for ass wipe.
If Kimberly-Clark-Venezuela had been a Union shop the plant machinery would have been disabled and unusable by Maduro’s socialist government.
In the Movie “Moscow on the Hudson” Robin Williams
is shown bringing toilet paper back to his girl
in Russia just before he defects to the US.
It breaks down to if you want to have toilet
paper and all the neat stuff capitalism offers;
Vote Trump.
Cato,
Even with the KC plant intact, the Socialists that will attempt to operate the plant, will soon enough render it inoperable on their own, without any outside “help”.
Read Any Rand, “Atlas Shrugged”, especially the third part. It’s inevitable.
Why would they need toilet paper?
It isn’t like that have any food.
. . . . like they have any food.
You can’t even flush it down the toilet so maybe this will ease pressure on the garbage collection. Go Arab!
I am guessing it came down to buying malted barley for Polar beer or paying for toilet paper.
The other day some progtard got onto the feminine-products-are-necessities-and-therefore-should-not-be-subject-any-sales-taxes rant.
I wasn’t in the mood, so I just turned and snapped at her, “Bitch, in Venuzuela they can’t even GET tampons!”
TP? We don’ need no stinking TP!
We have cacti!
