Eggs, Milk And Ink: Venezuela Wants All Supermarket Shoppers Fingerprinted

Why do they want shoppers fingerprinted? Well, in Venezuela, food is subsidized by the government. This makes it really, really cheap. Much cheaper than in neighboring Colombia. So Venezuelans are snapping up truckloads of cheap food, taking it to Colombia and selling it for a major profit. See? Socialism spurs entrepreneurialiam and a thriving market based economy.

Oh, sure, one other result is bare shelves and poor Venezuelans *still* not being able to eat because the food is simply *gone,* but hey… the government proves that it *cares.*
