The Government They Deserve

The Socialist government of Venezuela has seized and is occupying a Best Buy-type of retail chain, claiming the high prices are causing economic woes in the country, despite no empirical evidence. Chavez' successor is up for reelection soon, and it is more likely that dismal support ratings are the reason for the attack on firms, just as Chavez had done for many years before. Blaming capitalism tends to be too common, though capitalism is not allowed to function in these sorts of markets, so the effort is fallacious.
