| A Food Line in Venezuela |
The
country of Venezuela has made a major step toward restricting the purchase of
food to only those who are biometrically registered with the state. The government is saying that this biometric ration
card is voluntary, but that is unlikely to be true. The markets in Venezuela are government run.
Despite
having considerable petroleum wealth, the economy of Venezuela is in rapid
decline. This has produced widespread
protests which have been brutally repressed by the Maduro run government. The Venezuelan government has killed,
tortured and detained thousands of its citizens. The Vatican has offered to mediate talks
between the two sides.
The
government is taking advantage of this economic crisis to find ways to monitor
the basic activities of its citizens and keep them under control. This begins with registering the population
by their biometric information so that they can easily track who is buying
what. They are also tracking where and
when the purchases are being made. This
information is sent uploaded to a computer database where it is analyzed for
what the government is calling “suspicious purchasing patterns”.
The
Bible in Revelation 13 tells us of a similar system in which no one will be
allowed to buy or sell except for those who are marked with the mark of the
world leader; a man referred to as “the beast”. During times of crisis, people are easily convinced to do whatever is necessary to maintain their life.
Venezuela Issues ID Cards to Curtail Food Hoarding
Caracas,
Venezuela (AP) -- Battling food shortages, the government is rolling out a new
ID system that is either a grocery loyalty card with extra muscle or the most
dramatic step yet toward rationing in Venezuela, depending on who is describing
it.
President
Nicolas Maduro's administration says the cards to track families' purchases
will foil people who stock up on groceries at subsidized prices and then
illegally resell them for several times the amount. Critics say it's another
sign the oil-rich Venezuelan economy is headed toward Cuba-style dysfunction.
Registration
began Tuesday at more than 100 government-run supermarkets across the country.
Working-class shoppers who sometimes endure hours-long lines at government-run
stores to buy groceries at steeply reduced prices are welcoming the plan.

This is most surely what the one world order is going to establish due to and now easily implemented by the public demand on electronic consumer demand. We have created a monster. The more we require information the more information is being gathered to control us. There is no more guess work like the old days (demographics) we use to gather info for marketing purposes. Now we use it to harvest souls. God Save Us!
