If you’re about to think “Oh no, I might not be able to get this or that at the grocery store,” take a moment to consider how US sanctions have effected people in Cuba, Iran & Venezuela. Millions of people for whom life has been made so hard. These are ways we can grow from this.

Sorry, im from Venezuela, actually im here, and the supermarkets & stores, even pharmacy, have everything that people need, but at costs that the poor cannot access (well, almost every one). Tha sanctions are mainly to especific persons, and not include medicines and food!!

Your relevancy was a failed presidential campaign(which really I wish you were still in it because 2 old dinosaurs running as progressives is laughable) But when did you become a foriegn policy expert? I thought you'd lobby more for spiritual adviser to prez not secretary OState

We have been giving to those who may not be able to stock up. We stocked up for a month quarantine but figured two weeks would be more than enough supplies, so we donated the overstock. Everyone is preaching and not doing.
