Right? look at how often Britain, Canada, Switzerland, Sweden, Iceland, and Norway run out of toilet paper. There's also varying degrees of socialism, Venezuela actually had government ownership of the means of production, very different from anything being proposed in America or any currently "socialist" state.

Have you seen parts of Sweden lately? Apparently Socialism works when you attach it being Nationalistic.
