Venezuela solves Starvation problem by making it Mandatory to buy Food

The benevolent socialist leaders of Venezuela have determined the only humane way of solving the escalating starvation problem is to mandate that citizens buy food.  El Presidente, Nicolas Maduro, remaining true to his Marxist inspired roots has decided that only he and his fellow-travelers have the solution to that nations current situation.  After all, only true socialist have the answer.  And in this case, the government will mandate that all citizens buy food and stop listening to the reactionary voices of doom and gloom coming from the gringos to the north.
