The fate of a horse in Venezuela--"Miss Congeniality"--shows the results of socialism to those who can see

The midterm election is history, and while Republicans held the senate, anti-capitalism, pro-socialist Democrats took control of the House.  This happened because today in the U.S., by a small majority, voters support the seductive lures offered by the rat-bastard Democrats and socialists:  Open borders, higher taxes, banning private citizens from owning guns, offering more "free stuff" (hint: ain't nothin' free), sanctuary cities and states, forcing taxpayers to pay for sex-change operations--the damn list is endless.

I'll post more about the election results later.  But for now, if you're under the age of 30 or so I'd like to show you something about socialism, and what adopting it would mean for you and your children:

The story below is from the Miami Herald.  You won't hear a word about on any of the alphabet networks, nor read a word about it in the NYSlimes or the WaPo.  Then only reason the Herald ran it is that tens of thousands of people from South America live in Miami, so stories about Venezuela are considered "local interest."

Rafael Toro, a student at Venezuela’s top veterinary school, suspected something was wrong when a beloved horse called Miss Congeniality didn’t greet him at the fence one recent morning along with others in the campus’ small herd.

During the night, thieves had slaughtered the bright-eyed bay mare for her meat — either to sell or to feed their hungry families.

“I burst into tears,” said Toro, who delivered the grim news to other students. “We came here, and together we all cried.”

The slaughter has become common across Venezuela, as the once-wealthy oil nation’s economy continues its collapse and sky-high inflation leaves residents struggling to afford scarce food.  Not surprisingly, the crime rate is soaring--inflicting a huge toll on animals.  Ranchers across the country say thieves are slaughtering their livestock.

Professors on campus at Central University of Venezuela in Maracay complain that thieves steal air conditioners and electrical wiring. 

The same thing has been happening in Chicago and other large Democrat-run sh*thole cities for years.  Oh wait, you never heard that?  Wow, I can't imagine how you missed that.

The university reports each case but no one is ever arrested.  The university's security guards walked off the job, leaving the campus an open target.

Ranchers across the country complain their livestock herds are meeting the same fate. There are media reports of small groups of men caught smuggling stolen horse meat — accompanied by gory pictures of dismembered horses.
Professors on campus at Central University of Venezuela in Maracay complain that thieves have walked off with air conditioners and electrical wires, forcing them to teach in dark classrooms with sweat running down their backs.
But in a new low, bandits have turned their attention to slaughtering horses and cattle vital to training the South American nation’s next generation of veterinarians.
The meat from a full-grown horse could fetch roughly $1,400 at market, based on the equivalent prices of Venezuelan beef, making it a lucrative venture in a country where a worker’s monthly minimum wage is under $10 at the widely-used black market rate.
Months before Miss Congeniality’s demise, crooks slaughtered two horses donated to the university and that were temporarily quarantined at a nearby pasture, Toro said. Since late 2016, seven cows — including a prized bull at the center of the school’s breeding program — have fallen prey to overnight bandits sneaking onto campus.
“A loss like that is pretty expensive,” said professor Daniel Vargas, who oversees the university’s cattle program.
Venezuelans have traditionally been repulsed by the thought of eating horse meat, making recent developments here especially puzzling, say professors, who suspect customers are buying horse meat at their local butcher thinking it is beef.
The faculty reports each case, but police have yet to arrest any suspects. The school’s budget has been frozen for over a decade, leading security guards to walk off the job and leave the campus an open target, university officials said.
“It could be an inside job, or someone from outside,” said Isis Vivas, dean of the veterinary school. “Anything is possible.”
Toro, a lifelong animal lover who plans to graduate next year, believes Miss Congeniality was singled out from the small heard of five horses. She was four years old, plump and in the prime of life.
Amid the tragic loss, he safeguards her skull so future generations of students can continue to learn from her, such as gauging a horse’s age by examining the teeth.

Just 20 years ago Venezuela had the highest per-capita income in all of South America.  Then a power-hungry socialist thug offered the people "free stuff"--and a bare majority of stupid, uneducated, gullible voters bit, electing the guy.  He imposed socialism, and things started going downhill right away.

The recent US. election shows that a majority of voters support Dem candidates who promise them socialism and free stuff--just as Hugo Chavez did in Venezuela.  Now everyone not in the government down there is starving.  The country has rolling blackouts, water is intermittent, hospitals have no medical supplies or disinfectant.  It's hell.

This is the system Democrats want to impose here.  They don't want the same result, of course.  And they're dumb enough to believe they can get prosperity from the same system that's trashed every country where it's been tried.  Worse yet, the fools who want to impose this system cannot...I repeat, cannot...be taught by the hard lessons of other countries.  Cuz Democrats here are, like, really smaht, y'know?  They know they're smarter than ordinary folks--and especially vastly smarter than ordinary, hard-working Americans--whom they call "deplorables."

Dems are a slight majority, which means we're heading for Socialism.  Trump simply delayed the arrival date by a couple of years.
