And So It Begins: Citizens Arrested for Stockpiling Gasoline

This is a foreshadowing of what the World Economic Forum WEF wants for all of us...

...the country also ran out of cash to pay for more gasoline or to pay public servants. As Sri Lanka is socialist, importing oil is a government responsibility and Sri Lanka has been unable to rely on any help from its modest private sector.

Officials in socialist Sri Lanka boasted on Thursday of having arrested 137 people for “hoarding” gasoline, diesel, and kerosene as the government struggles to purchase sufficient supplies or distribute the little it has efficiently — a crisis worsened by severe shortages of medicine and basic items like powdered milk.

The Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka is currently facing the worst economic crisis in its history, running out of nearly every basic good that citizens need for the country to function properly. Regular power cuts, water shortages, and the absence of basic food and medicine items have become commonplace in the past six months, in addition to the lack of gasoline and liquified petroleum fuel.

A combination of extreme financial mismanagement, accepting predatory loans from Communist China, “green” policies that obliterated the nation’s domestic farming industry, and nearly two decades of government capture by the powerful Rajapaksa family has left the nation destitute.
